This process flow diagram represents the working of a binary geothermal power plant that uses the heat energy from the earth to generate electricity. It is a renewable form of energy. A pump is used to extract the hot brine solution from under the earth’s crust and a heat exchanger is employed to use this heat as a source of energy to heat the fuel of the power plant. This heat makes the steam more pressurized and effective to be fed into the turbine to generate electricity. The exit from the turbine is condensed and then condensed and then made into the heat exchanged again making a complete cycle. The continuous movement of hot brine solution and then dumping it into cold brine solution is the main heating source for the steam.
