Geo40.com Website Review

please note geo40.com was previously environmetals.co.nz close. geo40 has built the first commercial application of its proprietary silica extraction technology for the production of specialty silica. geo40 expects to be selling colloidal silica into the international markets by mid 2018. the proprietary silica extraction technology developed by geo40 is generating significant interest amongst geothermal power producers and. geo40’s unique and defendable proposition is technology that delivers a return on capital 2-3 times higher than conventional. colloidal silica production methods, by extracting silica from geothermal-electricity fluids. geo40 was established in 2010 to develop technologies for the extraction of minerals from geothermal fluid that has been used to generate electricity. geo40 limited has just completed building the first commercial application of its technology to extract silica from geothermal-electricity fluids. after operating successful pilot plant operations to produce colloidal silica at four geothermal fields at wairakei nz, kawerau nz , ohaaki nz and kakkonda, japan, geo40 has now completed the first commercial plant at contact energy’s ohaaki geo40’s extraction and processing equipment removes silica from the geothermal fluids (after the generation of electricity) and creates colloids in the range of 8 – 16 nanometres with a concentration of 30 – 40% silica by weight. three provisional patents have been filed covering all geo40 developments over the last five years, creating a robust intellectual property platform. geothermal electricity generation is growing as a renewable base-load energy resource, but the presence of dissolved silica in geothermal fluids can be a limiting and costly issue for the power plant. geo40’s proven proprietary extraction technology can as*ist operators to provide them with lower capex and opex through reduced silica scaling in the plant and reinjection wells, and also provides the potential for additional electricity generation.
