Power generation systems typically have capacity factors of 95% (i.e. operate at nearly full capacity year round), whereas direct-use systems have a capacity factor around 25 to 30%, owing to heating not being required year round. Heat pump systems have operating capacities of around 10–20% in the heating mode and double this if the cooling mode is also included. Within the direct utilisation sector of geothermal energy, geothermal heat pumps have world- wide application, as the shallow ground temperature is within their range anywhere in the world. Traditional direct use heating is limited to where the resource is available in economic depths and where climate justifies the demand. Power generation in the past has been limited by resources above 180oC. However, with recent advances in binary (Organic Rankine) cycle technology, lower-temperature fluids at around 100oC are being utilised, thus increasing the number of potential locations. Drilling depth, fluid quantity and quality, and temperature of the resource determine the economic viability of the project. More recently, the use of combined heat and power plants has made low-temperature resources and deep drilling more economic. District heating using the spent water from a binary power plant can make a marginal project economic as has been done in Germany, Austria and Iceland. This is a form of cascading (Fig. 9.6), where the geothermal fluid is utilised at progressively lower temperature, thus maximising the energy extracted. 9.9

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
