World Energy Council 2013 World Energy Resources: Geothermal Geothermal heat pumps installations have increased by at least 50% over the past five years with three large units in two major heating plants (water-source units), and over 11,000 units in individual buildings (ground-coupled units, both vertical and horizontal). The various uses include: u district heating of 68.0 MWt and 393 TJ/yr; u greenhouse heating 0.5 MWt and 2.0 TJ/yr; u fish farming 0.5 MWt and 2.0 TJ/yr; u bathing and swimming 8.67 MWt and 55.2 TJ/yr; u geothermal heat pumps at 203.10 MWt and 1,044.5 TJ/yr; u others (salt extraction and playground heating) 0.28 MWt and 4.4 TJ/yr; Portugal Electricity generation Installed capacity MWe 30 Annual output GWh 210 Annual capacity factor Direct use Installed capacity, MWt 28 Annual output TJ 420 Annual capacity factor The limited geothermal resources in mainland Portugal have been developed for direct use, whereas geothermal occurrences in the Azores are utilised for the production of electricity as well as being used directly. Twelve areas with potential for developing geothermal electricity generation have been identified on the islands of Faial, Pico, Graciosa, Terceira and São Miguel in the Azores. Operation of the 3 MWe Pico Vermelho on São Miguel began in 1981. A second plant came into operation in two phases in 1994 and 1997 and by end-2008 gross geothermal capacity had reached 28.2 MWe, generating 192 GWh. Research has shown that the island of Terceira has a high-temperature resource suitable for power generation. Construction of a 12 MWe plant is planned. Low-enthalpy occurrences are spread throughout the mainland and have been harnessed for small district heating schemes, greenhouse heating and bathing and swimming (includ- ing balneology). Direct use in the Azores excludes district heating. To date there has been little interest in geothermal heat pumps. At end-2009, total installed capacity stood at 27.8 MWt of which 25.3 MWt was for bathing and swimming, 1 MWt for greenhouse heating and 1.5 MWt for district heating. High temperature geothermal resources in Portugal are limited to the volcanic islands of the Azores, where electric power has been produced since 1980. Low-temperature geothermal resources are exploited for direct uses in balneotherapy, small space heating systems and geothermal heat pumps. In 2008, private investors obtained concession rights for exploration of geothermal resources for a total area of 2,655 km2, aim- ing for future development of small scale EGS generation projects.

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
