A presentation describing the NETL computed tomography and core flow facility, and the utilization of these facilities to examine geochemical alterations in geothermal systems constructed from repurposed oil and gas wells.
This presentation is based on the conference paper of an experimental study using field water from the Tuttle geothermal project to investigate geochemical impact when repurposing oil/gas wells for geothermal applications.
This paper presents an experimental study using field water from the Tuttle geothermal project to investigate geochemical impact when repurposing oil/gas wells for geothermal applications.
In this presentation, the speaker discusses the research that has been carried out at NETL regarding direct lithium extraction. The three main discussing points are as follows: developing high-capacity lithium-ion sieve sorbent using mineral streams associated with critical minerals; demonstrating the sorbent ability to recover lithium from oil/gas produced waters and geothermal brines; and assessing the feasibility of large-scale implementation through technoeconomic analysis.
