1) Name of the investment: Geothermal energy project BH 1 ORC system for the generation of electricity through the use of geothermal energy in Bors. Jud Bihor - Romania.
The execution of the project is managed by Mr. AVRAM GIGEL DORU as project manager.
2) Investment location: Bors - Bihor Romania
a) Connections:
- Investment involves the existence of electrical networks for energy products and thus connection investment plan and a connection to NPS project will be carried out following NPS.
- Water: a drilling depth of water required to carry out production process will be obtained. These holes drills in the design.
- Channelling: Staff structure consisting of a total of 4 people, which will serve the plant and which will acquire a pit ecological and to the extent approved are installed.
b) Permissions, releases and agreements necessary:
It will end in agreement with Sc Transgex SRL Contractual Perimeter for investment. Take the following license:
- ATR (connection permit) Area of energy operators;
- approval for the establishment of ANRE;
- building permit from the local authority;
3.) The proposed technical solution: Proposed installation tree geothermal energy from the scope of research for the generation of electricity and thermal residual values gives:
- electricity produced: 16.8 MWp, of which:
- Heat 170grC ... 210grC to 80 l / sec ... 140l / sec
4) technical description: Water from the bore is required with a minimum of 170 ° C and is led through the plant ORC where electrical energy is generated via the turbines and generators. After this process, the remaining temperature of 60 ° C. is passed on and used by the commune. Subsequently, the water is directed into the second bore
Subproject called:
Energy recovery of heat from the system.
4) Project implementation dates:
Work will be expected for a period of up to 14 months from approving ATR and building permit.
• Pannonian Basin is a typical back ark basin with a complex evolution
• It has several shorting strike slip and rifting periods
• The most important factor is a crustal significant thinning and an important uplift of the Mohorovicici unconformity. The main consequence of these processes is an
important geothermal anomaly consisting of a high thermal flux and abnormal temperature gradients.
• Thermal effects lead to subsidence by changing the density structure of the lithosphere so that the isostatic balance is changed.
• The lithosphere can heat up quickly (e.g. via intrusions) but cools more slowly by conduction. If conduction is the primary means of cooling, the lithosphere cools first as a function of the square-root of time and then, after a few tens of millions years, it cools as an exponential.
• As the lithosphere cools, it subsides because colder rock is denser and less buoyant than warm rock. The total amount of time for the lithosphere to cool by conduction is about 150-200 million years.
• Everything else being equal, the total amount of subsidence during cooling is exactly equal to the total amount of uplift during heating. Therefore, is no net subsidence.
Other event must occur to create basin a basin by thermal processes. These processes include: erosion of uplifted areas, thickening of the mantle lid during cooling, or thinning of the crust.
The Pannonian Basin as a representative intermountain or interarc basin was formed mainly during the Neogene by successive and continuous submergence. There was an interaction between depositional subsidence, uplift and erosion. Thus a close relation between sediments and tectonics can be recognized.
The architecture of the overall depression indicates the existence of a combination of normal sedimentary basin and a primary dynamic one that endows it with a complex character.
The rate of subsidence was different in space and time and, as a consequence, many sub- basins of different shapes and depths were formed. The maximum subsidence took place in the Pliocene.
The sedimentary environment had developed progressively from early marine through lacustrine to late fluviatile character, followed by a combination of transgressive and regressive marine to lacustrine processes with intervening deltaic phenomena from Miocene to the Quaternary. A clear cyclic pattern of the Pliocene and Pleistocene sedimentation is indicative of tectonic, eustatic and provenance fluctuation. The closing member of the entire Neogene sedimentary prism is the fluviatile-deltaic Quaternary sequence, which has a maximum total thickness of 800 m. The lower part of the overall sedimentary sequence consists of Miocene and/or Pliocene basal conglomerates and autoclastic rocks, then a subsequent marly to shaly formation with here-and- there layered organic limestone formations of Tortonian age. The total thickness of Miocene is varying from a few ten meters to 3000 m. The Pliocene sequence is characterized exclusively by arenaceous to argillaceous sediments with some basal conglomerates. The total thickness of the entire Pliocene sequence may range up to 5000 m.
During the last 45 years the western part of Romania constituted the object of geological, hydrogeological and geophysical investigations. The works of several specialists have contributed to the geological and hydrogeological knowledge of the Romanian territory (part of the Pannonian basin). A particularly valuable contribution was achieved by the studies carried out by seismic, magneto-metric, air magneto-metric, geo-electric, gravimetric, more recently geothermic surveys whose results are recorded in the works performed by highly appreciated specialists and Institutes from Romania, Hungary, Iceland, Germany.
