Lastly, the effect of autoclave temperature was investigated and findings were tabulated in Table 3.9. Table 3.9 Effect of autoclave temperature on capacity of adsorbents synthesized by Hydrothermal-1 procedure Adsorbent synthesis conditions Adsorption process conditions Autoclave Oven Initial Li Final Li Capacity temperature Gel/water temperature Li/Mn concentration concentration pH (𝐦𝐠𝐋𝐢) (oC) ratio (oC) fraction (ppm) (ppm) 𝐠𝐚𝐝𝐬. 10.1 11.78 10.1 13.34 10.1 9.98 10.1 11.78 10.1 6.79 10.1 7.34 110 1 120 1 130 1 140 1 150 1 180 1 650 4 5 650 4 5 650 4 5 650 4 5 650 4 5 650 4 5 2.84 2.22 3.00 2.84 3.52 3.48 Table 3.9 shows that lower autoclave temperatures result in higher capacity values. The temperature in an aqueous autoclave system can also affect the pressure of the media. The pressure of the system reaches to vapor pressure of water at specified temperature. The capacity loss at high temperature and pressures may be attributed to the nature of MnCl2 and LiOH reaction but could not be identified explicitly. Considering the experiments conducted to optimize the capacity of adsorbents synthesized by Hydrothermal-1 procedure, the highest capacity value of 13.3 mg Li/g ads. was acquired at gel/water ratio=1, oven temperature=650, Li/Mn fraction= 4 and autoclave temperature=120. This value corresponds to 33 % of the maximum theoretical adsorption capacity (40 mg Li+/g adsorbent) of the lithium manganese oxide adsorbents. The value of 13.3 mg Li/g implies that one third of the active sides are available for lithium adsorption in LiMnO and the remaining sides were not reached by lithium ions due to mass transfer limitations or the synthesis was failed in some extent. In order to get rid of mass transfer limitation in the particles and make the particles more porous, the lithium manganese oxide adsorbents was synthesized with Pluronics which was a polyethylene glycol-poly propylene glycol-polyethylene 50

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.
