Student stories: CRM analysis of rocks from the North German Basin for the co-use of deep geothermal plants
Anika Thomas investigated during an internship and her Master Thesis the rocks of the North German Basin regarding the abundance of the critical elements lithium, strontium and copper.
CRM-geothermal achieves milestone in microbial metal processing
The CRM-geothermal project has recently reached a milestone in its quest to harness microbial capabilities for metal recovery from geothermal fluids. Researchers from the Laboratory of Microbiology at the University of Neuchâtel and Dr. Brill + Partner GmbH performed innovative screening experiments to identify microbes capable of extracting valuable metals like lithium (Li) and mitigating problematic elements such as lead (Pb) which can cause scaling in some geothermal power plants.
