Summary:

Brine specific heat capacity shows up in geothermal power calculations. I generated the main plot some time ago, but just added the two points. Fervo Energy Blue Mountain pilot project (salinity S=5000 ppm) is a recurring case history throughout my notes. Smackover lithium brine (S=340,000 ppm) has geothermal electrical co-generation potential and is the MS thesis subject of my student Juan Falquez. The SMK point is specifically tuned to the Lewisville area of Lafayette County, where a large Standard Lithium project is in development. LinkedIn post here hashtag
