Abstract:An alternative powerplant layout to the commonly applied flash technology is proposed for the geothermal location of Monte Amiata, Italy. The reservoir conditions correspond to a pressurized brine field, with relevant contents of CO2, acid gases/contaminants, and dissolved salts. The present solution avoids flashing the brine stream, proposing instead to install a borehole pump capable of maintaining pressurized conditions. By applying this solution, the amount of non-condensable gases released when reaching t… Show more
