Geo Thermal Energy

(For Industrial Purpose)

The word geothermal comes from the Greek words Geo (earth) and therme (heat).

It is geothermal energy that is responsible for volcanoes, earthquakes, geysers, hot springs and mud-pots and are derived from hot water and steam formed in porous or fractured rock at relatively moderate depths from 100 meters to five kilometers. High geothermal activity occurs where the Earths crust is thin and molten rock and steam at high pressure are able to force their way to the surface. Hot grounds below the earth contain huge amount of energy.

Generally at broad level, It is used for energy production

First of all it is necessary to make a survey of hot underground areas.

Cooper Basin contains the hottest grounds on earth

at reasonable drilling depths

Drilling in the earth is made about three to five kilometers deep in the earth like the oil drilling and cold water is pumped into the hot areas of underground earth.

Cold water is injected into the ground at the depth of 3000 meters to 4000 meters by pipe.

This water is stored at this level forms the shape of geothermal reservoir.

At the depth of about 4.5 kilometers beneath the earth water attain the temperature of 300 C due to hot rocks.

This naturally hot water is pressurized towards the surface with the help of pipes towards the heat exchanger.

With the help of this heat exchanger steam is produces which is used to move the turbines and turbine move the generator where electricity is produced and cold water is sent back into the earth again.
