Abstract
During a series of silica deposition experiments were performed at Broadlands to determine the feasibility of r e injecting untreated geothermal water at temperatures of about slight silica deposition did occur in the test pipelines the rate of deposition was very slow and this provided confirmation that reinjection of untreated geothermal hot water is a viable proposition.
