CRM-geothermal Webinar: Pilot Plant

October 28 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

We are pleased to invite you to the webinar “Pilot Plant for Extracting Critical Raw Materials from Geothermal”.

Discover how the FluMex mini-plant, developed within the CRM-geothermal project, was tested under real geothermal conditions at the Cornish Lithium site in United Downs, Cornwall, UK.

The webinar will provide an introduction to the CRM-geothermal project and its objectives, followed by an overview of the FluMex pilot plant, its design and operating principle, and insights from its field testing for lithium extraction from geothermal brine. The webinar will also explore the costs and economic benefits of combined extraction, providing perspectives on the potential deployment of the technology.

Join us to explore the technical potential of the FluMex technology, lessons learned from its operation under real geothermal conditions, and the economic considerations for future deployment.

Date: 28 October 2026
Time: 11:00 – 12:00
