Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) has issued an expression of interest for research services for mineral extraction from Geothermal Brine.
Through a tender notice, KenGen invited eligible firms and entities to provide application research on mineral extractions from the hot brine— the waste stream that the firm pumps out of the ground. Deadline for submissions is 22nd January.
All the geothermal plants owned by KenGen are single flash condensing type – the flashing process yields brine that contains mineral elements that could yield more value to the electricity company.
