Policy Department A: Economic and Scientific Policy ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Other HDR projects are located in Bad Urach in Germany (4,445 m, 170 °C, 1 MWe, meanwhile decommissioned) and in Basel in Switherland (Swiss Deep Heat Mining Project, 2,700 m, 6 MWe, 17 MWth useable heat). After earthquakes the project in Basel was stopped in 2007. The costs of HDR depend strongly on exploration efforts and drilling depths which vary from site to site. 1.6.3. Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) In contrast to the geothermal power stations in regions with active volcanoes (e.g. Italy, Iceland) the available temperature in Germany and Austria is significantly lower (max. 220°C). Conventional steam turbines using water vapour as working fluid are not suitable for such low temperatures. Therefore alternative processes (ORC, Kalina process) have been developed which are capable of generating electricity at relatively low temperature levels (~100°C). For the organic rankine cycle (ORC) hydrocarbons (e.g. pentane, i-butane) or a fluorocarbon (C5F12) are used as working fluid. The formerly used chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) R11 and R12 which are responsible for the destruction of the ozone layer are not used any longer. The net efficiency of the geothermal power plant using ORC in Altheim in Austria is about 4% (gross efficiency: 8%). The temperature level of the geothermal resource is 106°C. The net electricity output is 500 kWe (gross: 1,000 kWe). Besides electricity also thermal energy is generated (10 MW) which is used for district heating. Figure 9 shows a simplified scheme for a geothermal power station based on the organic rankine cycle (ORC).

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
