- Employing a slightly acidic solution (pH:6.1) in sweeping process obviously increased the swept amount of foreign ions especially magnesium. - Most of the lithium adsorbed by the beads stayed within LiMnO content in the column during sweeping by tap water, deionized water and acidic water at pH 6.1. - It is possible to further concentrate lithium content in a solution by consecutive adsorption-sweeping-elution cycles up to a point where thermodynamic limitation of the process emerges. 3.4.5 Separation of lithium by a post-treatment with LiMnO particles following column adsorption In this section, the concentrated brine taken from adsorption column was further treated with LiMnO particles in order to increase the lithium and reduce the foreign ion content. The experiments were done batchwise by direct contact of adsorption column effluent with LiMnO particles at pH:9.8 in a large volume beaker. The initial and final concentrations of adsorption process are shown in Table 3.57.

Then, LiMnO particles were mixed with 100 ml demineralized water 125PDF 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 (Standard Web Page)
