NginguCole Bennett, uchwepheshe wokubhoboza ochithe iminyaka eyishumi embonini kawoyela negesi—ngeminyaka emihlanu yokugcina ngicwila kakhulu kumaphrojekthi okushisa komhlaba kulo lonke elaseNtshonalanga Melika. Ukubhoboza komhlaba akusona nje isinyathelo esisuka ekubhobozeni uwoyela; kuwukuhlolwa okunonya kwezinto zokwakha. Sikhuluma ngokubhoboza nge-granite okuzwakala njengokubhoboza ngensimbi eqinile, ukubekezelela amazinga okushisa angaphansi komhlaba afinyelela ku-350°F (177°C), kanye nokulwa nokuguga okuqhubekayo okuvela ekwakhekeni okunamandla nokucindezela okuphezulu. Sekuyiminyaka ngigxuma phakathi kwezinto eziqinile ezazithembisa imiphumela “eshintsha umdlalo” kodwa zaphela lapho ngibhekene nezimo zangempela zomhlaba okushisa komhlaba. Konke lokho kwashintsha lapho ngiqala ukusebenzisa.I-compact ethuthukisiwe yedayimane ekhonjisiwekuphrojekthi eNevada. Ngemva kokuyihlola ensimini kukho konke kusukela ekwakhekeni kwe-basalt yase-Oregon kuya emasimini okushisa okuphezulu kwaseCalifornia, ngilapha ukuzokusho: lokhu akuyona nje enye into eqinile kakhulu—yisisombululo ebesilokhu silinde.
Unqenqema Oluncane: Amandla Adlula Edwaleni Eliqinile Kakhulu Le-Geothermal
Ukwakheka kwe-geothermal akugcini nje ngokumelana nokubhoboza—kuyaphindisela emuva. Amazinyo endabuko ayisicaba aqinile asakaza amandla endaweni ebanzi, okusho ukuthi ayagxuma edwaleni eliminyene noma aguge ngemva kwamamitha ambalwa entuthuko. I-compact ethuthukisiwe yedayimane eliyi-conical ilungisa lokhu ngesimo sayo esinciphile esiklanywe ngokunemba, esakhiwe ngobuchwepheshe be-polycrystalline diamond composite core. Esikhundleni sokucindezela edwaleni, igxilisa amandla okubhoboza emphethweni obukhali, oqinile—njengokusebenzisa i-chisel enembile esikhundleni sesando esibuthuntu. Ngonyaka odlule, besibhoboza umthombo we-geothermal ongamamitha angu-6,500 enyakatho yeNevada, lapho u-75% wokwakheka kuyi-granite ye-psi engu-42,000+ psi. Saqala ngamazinyo aqinile aqinile omncintiswano ophambili, ngokwesilinganiso samamitha angu-7 kuphela ngehora. Ngomzuzu esashintshana ngawo saya ezingcezwini ezifakwe i-Conical diamond ethuthukisiwe, sagxuma saya kumamitha angu-12.3 ngehora—cishe ngokushesha ngo-76%. Umklamo onciphile wagubha edwaleni ngaphandle kokushelela, usika ukwakheka okuqinile sengathi kwakuyitshe lesihlabathi elithambile. Emkhakheni we-geothermal, lapho unyawo ngalunye lokubhoboza lubiza izinkulungwane, lolo hlobo lwamandla okungena alugcini nje ngokuba luhle—lubalulekile.
Ukumelana Nokushisa Nokuguguleka: Phumelela Emazingeni Okushisa Aphezulu Kagesi
Uma idwala eliqinile liyisitha sokuqala sokubhoboza nge-geothermal, ukushisa okukhulu kwesibili. Ekujuleni okungaphezu kwamamitha angu-5,000, amazinga okushisa angaphansi kwembobo apheka izinto ezincane, athambise imiphetho yazo yokusika futhi aguqule amazinyo abukhali abe yizicucu ezingenamsebenzi. I-compact ethuthukisiwe yedayimane eyi-conical yakhelwe ukumelana nalesi sijeziso: i-substrate eqinile ye-carbide eqinisiwe eboshwe ongqimbeni lwedayimane olujiyile, oluphathwa ngokushisa olugcina ubuqotho balo ngisho naku-350°F. Kuphrojekthi eseSalton Sea Geothermal Field yaseCalifornia—enye yezindawo ezishisa kakhulu ze-geothermal e-US—sayiqhathanise nenye indlela ethandwayo eqinile. Izingcezu zomncintiswano zahlala amahora angu-18 kuphela ngaphambi kokudinga ukushintshwa, zibhoboza amamitha angu-160. I-compact ethuthukisiwe yedayimane eyi-conical yagijima amahora angu-34 iqondile, ibhoboza amamitha angu-310—cishe kabili ubukhulu be-footage—ngaphandle kokulahlekelwa ubukhali noma amandla esakhiwo. Akukho ukuwohloka kokushisa, akukho ukuqhekeka, akukho ukwehluleka okungalindelekile. Kwabasebenzi be-geothermal, lokho kusho ukuthi ukuhamba okuncane ngaphandle kwe-wellbore, isikhathi esincane sokuphumula, kanye nezindleko ezincishisiwe ngo-30% noma ngaphezulu.
Ukususwa Okusebenzayo Kwezicucu: Gwema Ukubhoboza Udaka, Qhubeka Ubhoboza
Ukubhoboza nge-geothermal kuncike odakeni olunamandla aphezulu ukulawula ingcindezi nokupholisa ingxenye, kodwa lolo daka lunephutha elikhulu: lubamba izingcezu zamadwala, ludala "ukubhoboza udaka" okugaya ukubhoboza kuze kume. Amazinyo aqinile ayisicaba ayesabeka ekulahleni imfucumfucu—izingcezu ziyanqwabelana ebusweni bengxenye, zikhipha i-torque futhi zisiphoqe ukuba sidonse ingxenye ukuze sihlanzwe (inqubo echitha amahora angu-2-3 ngesigameko ngasinye). Iphrofayili enciphile ye-compact ethuthukisiwe yedayimane eliyi-conical ixazulula lokhu ngeziteshi zemvelo, ezakhelwe ngaphakathi eziqondisa izingcezu kude nomkhawulo wokusika futhi ziye ekugelezeni kodaka. Ekuqaleni konyaka, sasinomthombo e-Idaho lapho ukubhoboza udaka kwakubangela amahora angaphezu kwangu-3 okungasebenzi nsuku zonke. Sashintshela ezingcezu ezifakweI-compact ethuthukisiwe yedayimane ekhonjisiwe, futhi isikhathi sokungasebenzi sehle saya kumaminithi angu-30 kuphela. I-Torque yehle ngo-27%, futhi saqeda amamitha angu-220 ngaphezulu kunomthombo oseduze sisebenzisa amazinyo aqinile ayisicaba. E-geothermal, lapho umzuzu ngamunye wesikhathi sokungasebenzi udla khona inzuzo, lolo hlobo lokusebenza kahle lushintsha umdlalo.
Ngemva kweminyaka eyishumi ngisebenza emkhakheni, ngifundile ukuthi impumelelo yokushisa komhlaba ayimayelana nokuthola izinto “ezisindayo”—imayelana nokuthola *ezenza* ngaphansi kwesijeziso.I-compac ethuthukisiwe yedayimane eyindilingatyenza lokho kanye: iyasika kakhulu, ihlala isikhathi eside, futhi igcina ukubhoboza kuhamba lapho ezinye izinto ziyeka. Kunoma ubani okhathele yi-ROP ehamba kancane, izinguquko ezivamile ze-bit, kanye nezindleko ezikhulayo kumaphrojekthi okushisa komhlaba, lokhu akuyona nje enye into eqinile kakhulu—kuyisihluthulelo sokubhoboza okunenzuzo nokusebenzayo.
