Summary

A summary of the problems (encountered as well as anticipated) associated with reinjection of heat-depleted brines and injection of other fluids such as imported brines and gases is presented. Covered are only injection and reinjection problems which are related to the exploitation of liquid-dominated resources by flash-cycle power plants. Suggestions (proven as well as probable) which may offer solutions to many of the identified problems are also covered. In addition, some ideas that should or could be implemented in planning of implementing and/or executing any new geothermal injection operation are described.
