returned back to the feed tank. The concentration of the solutions of two consecutive leaching processes is shown in Table 3.42. Table 3.42 Elution process data of the column after Run 3. Run # 15 16 Total volume (ml) 350 350 Li conc. (ppm) 445 115 In Run 3, the column capacity was calculated as 221.2 mg Li. After first leaching in Run 15 157.5 mg of Li was leached from the column which was 70 % of the total lithium amount adsorbed in the column. In Run 16, additional 40.3 mg of Li was leached from the column which adds up to total 197.8 mg of Li recovered from the column. At the end, 90 % of total lithium adsorbed in the column was eluted. The leaching process seems to be very effective and nearly all lithium in the column is taken to acid solution. After elution processes, beads were washed with plenty of acid solution and regenerated to be used in following separation process. 3.4.4.2 Elution of the column fed with artificial brine solution The high concentration of the foreign ions in artificial brine solution leads to adherence of those ions on bead surfaces and partially on LiMnO particles. Therefore a sweeping operation was applied before elution process. In sweeping process the column was fed with tap water or slightly acidic water (pH:6.1) and foreign ions were washed through the column. In that manner, the column fed with artificial brine solution in Run 12 was washed with tap water in Run 17 and washed with acidic water in Run 25 before elution. The results after each sweeping process were analyzed in the following sections. 3.4.4.2.1 Sweeping of the column with tap water After Run 12, the column was washed with plenty of tap water to get rid of foreign ions. The change of ion concentrations at the outlet of the column is shown in Figure 3.42. 111PDF Image | SEPARATION OF LITHIUM FROM BRINES

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.| CONTACT TEL: 608-238-6001 Email: greg@infinityturbine.com | RSS | AMP |
