Book Description
The US Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA) has negotiated a contract with San Diego Gas and Electric Company, San Diego, California, (SDG and E) to support and expedite technology development at thermal loop experimental facility already under construction by SDG and E in the Salton Sea Geothermal Field, near Niland, Imperial Valley, California. The facility is designed to simulate a 10 MWe geothermal electrical power plant, using 4-stage steam flash and binary cycle conversion equipment to extract heat from the high-temperature, high-salinity geothermal brines of the Salton Sea Field. An expansion valve will be used to simulate a power turbines to evaluate system operation. To date, economic development of this geothermal resource has been inhibited by severe technical problems, primarily scaling buildup in equipment exposed to the highly concentrated brines. As a result of test conducted during the past several years, SDG and E has designed a heat transfer system which, if successful, will permit utilization of this resource.

Book Description
The 10,000-kilowatt Salton Sea Unit 1 power plant was designed to demonstrate that electrical power generation, using the highly saline brines from the Salton Sea geothermal reservoir, was technically and economically feasible. Unit 1, owned by Earth Energy, a Unocal subsidiary, began operating in 1982, initiating an intensive testing program which established the design criteria necessary to construct the larger 47,500-kilowatt Unit 3 power plant, unit 3 contains many of the proprietary or patented technological innovations developed during this program. Design, construction and start-up of the Unit 3 power generating facility began in December, 1986, and was completed in 26 months. By the end of 1988, the brine handling system was in full operation, and the turbine had been tested at design speed. Desert Power Company, a Unocal subsidiary, owns the power generating facility. Unocal owns the brine resource production facility. Power is transmitted by the Imperial Irrigation District to Southern California Edison Company.
