Book Kinetic Equations and Type Curves for Predicting the Precipitation of Amorphous Silica from Geothermal Brines

Download or read book Kinetic Equations and Type Curves for Predicting the Precipitation of Amorphous Silica from Geothermal Brines written by and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kinetics of amorphous silica precipitation from aqueous solution up to 100°C and containing up to 1M NaCl were studied experimentally. Empirical equations for the rate of molecular deposition on surfaces as a function of temperature, dissolved silica concentration, pH and salinity are presented. Empirical type curves which depict the decrease in dissolved silica concentration through homogeneous nucleation of colloidal silica are also presented. Two practical examples related to geothermal practice are given.

Book On line Tests of Organic Additives for the Inhibition of the Precipitation of Silica from Hypersaline Geothermal Brine II  Tests of Nitrogen containing Compounds  Silanes  and Additional Ethoxylated Compounds

Download or read book On line Tests of Organic Additives for the Inhibition of the Precipitation of Silica from Hypersaline Geothermal Brine II Tests of Nitrogen containing Compounds Silanes and Additional Ethoxylated Compounds written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several new classes of organic compounds have been screened as potential geothermal scale control agents by examining their effect on the precipitation of silica from Magmamax No. 1 brine. The substances were tested using the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory Brine Treatment Test System at the Niland, California, Test Site. Solutions of the test substances were injected into flowing brine at 210°C, the brine was flashed to 125°C, and then the kinetics of solids and silica precipitation from effluent brine held at 90°C were measured. Three new types of compounds were shown to have activity as precipitation inhibitors: polyethylene imines, polyethyloxazalines, and quaternary ammonium compounds containing polyoxyethylene. Among the latter, Ethoquad 18/25, which is methyl-polyoxyethylene(15) octadecylammonium chloride, is the leading candidate antiscalant. It is a more powerful inhibitor of silica precipitation than the pure polyoxyethylene polymers, and it apparently has no high temperature solubility limitations. Measurements were made of the concentrations of monomeric silica and the effect of addition of inhibitor at various points in the Brine Treatment Test System. Five different silane compounds showed no activity toward silica.

Book Predicting the Precipiation of Amorphous Silica from Geothermal Brines

Download or read book Predicting the Precipiation of Amorphous Silica from Geothermal Brines written by and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The voluminous gel-like deposits encountered at Cerro Prieto, Wairakei, and Niland consist of flocculated colloidal amorphous silica. The crumbly grey and white scales associated with the gel-like materials are cemented colloidal aggregates. This colloidal silica is produced by homogeneous nucleation in the liquid phase; i.e., nucleation by growth of polymers to critical nucleus size without the participation of some preexisting solid particle. With most substances heterogeneous nucleation is dominant, and homogeneous nucleation is very slow, rare in nature, and difficult to study in the laboratory. The precipitation of amorphous silica is an apparent exception to this because of the very low surface tension of the silica-water interface--between 35 and 50 ergs cm−2 over the range of major practical interest. By comparison, the surface tension of the water-air interface is about 70-80 ergs cm−2. This means that enormous numbers of particles can be produced by homogeneous nucleation (on the order 1017 to 1018 per liter), and this completely swamps the effects of heterogeneous nucleation.
