Table 3.7 Effect of gel/water ratio on capacity of adsorbents synthesized by Hydrothermal-1 procedure Adsorbent synthesis conditions Adsorption process conditions Oven Autoclave Initial Li Final Li Capacity Gel/water temperature temperature Li/Mn concentration concentration pH (𝐦𝐠𝐋𝐢) ratio o o fraction 𝐠𝐚𝐝𝐬. 10.1 4.9 10.1 9.98 10.1 13.34 ( C) 0.3 650 0.7 650 1 650 ( C) 120 120 120 4 4 4 (ppm) (ppm) 5 4.83 5 3.00 5 2.22 It can be shown from Table 3.7 that, as gel/water ratio in autoclave decreases, the capacity values of the adsorbents also decrease. The effect of water amount in autoclave on adsorption capacity of the resulting adsorbents can be explained by the concentration of the reactants in the medium. More concentrated mixtures give higher extent of reaction which result in higher amount of desired product. Third, the effect of Li/Mn ratio was investigated in another set of experiments. The results were listed in Table 3.8. Table 3.8 Effect of Li/Mn ratio on capacity of adsorbents synthesized by Hydrothermal-1 procedure Adsorbent synthesis conditions Adsorption process conditions Oven Autoclave Initial Li Final Li Capacity Li/Mn temperature temperature Gel/water concentration concentration pH (𝐦𝐠𝐋𝐢) fraction (oC) (oC) ratio (ppm) (ppm) 𝐠𝐚𝐝𝐬. 4 650 120 1 5 2.22 10.1 13.34 2 650 120 1 5 3.65 10.1 6.48 1 650 120 1 5 4.09 10.1 4.35 It is seen that the Li/Mn ratio has a remarkable effect on the resulting capacity values. The best result was acquired with Li/Mn=4 in which lithium ion presence in the crystal lattice has a highest value. It is also important to note that as lithium ion increases in the crystal lattice, the stability of the absorbents tends to reduce in consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. 49

Product and Development Focus for Infinity Turbine

ORC Waste Heat Turbine and ORC System Build Plans: All turbine plans are $10,000 each. This allows you to build a system and then consider licensing for production after you have completed and tested a unit.

Redox Flow Battery Technology: With the advent of the new USA tax credits for producing and selling batteries ($35/kW) we are focussing on a simple flow battery using shipping containers as the modular electrolyte storage units with tax credits up to $140,000 per system.

Our main focus is on the salt battery. This battery can be used for both thermal and electrical storage applications.

We call it the Cogeneration Battery or Cogen Battery.

One project is converting salt (brine) based water conditioners to simultaneously produce power.

In addition, there are many opportunities to extract Lithium from brine (salt lakes, groundwater, and producer water).

Salt water or brine are huge sources for lithium. Most of the worlds lithium is acquired from a brine source. It's even in seawater in a low concentration. Brine is also a byproduct of huge powerplants, which can now use that as an electrolyte and a huge flow battery (which allows storage at the source).

We welcome any business and equipment inquiries, as well as licensing our turbines for manufacturing.
