摘要
The integration of small geothermal power generation projects ( < 5 MWe) with agribusiness and agriculture product production, processing, distillation or dehydration facilities is rapidly growing in popularity. This trend is a result of advancements in the generation of electricity from low- to moderate temperature geothermal resources (100-150degreesC) and the economic advantage that full use of the resource, once pumped from the well(s), provides. Developers are evaluating or building projects that use both topping as well as bottoming cycles. Generation technologies include Organic Rankine Cycle, Kalina Cycle and low temperature flash steam.
