New technology and development of brine reserves are increasing each year in the United States and abroad. This affects the uses and price of brine chemicals. For example, development of the Salar de Atacama in Chile in the 1980s as the largest producer of brine lithium in the world has affected lithium production and prices worldwide. Lithium production from Seades Lake brine has been discontinued, and the Silver Peak operation in Nevada is in a slow production decline caused by weaker brine grades.

The Kind of Blue is rescued by its jazz-cool pale blue and the taste of maraschino, which is distilled like brandy from marasca cherries and their pits, which are crushed and included and which give the liqueur, and the cocktail, an artisanal bitter-almond taste. In the nineteenth century, maraschino is what cherries were marinated in to produce maraschino cherries, the drink garnish. Maraschino cherries are now brined chemically.

The concept of local phase equilibrium within a reservoir under chemical flood with fractional flow of each phase governed by its fractional mobility and saturation, is well supported by evidence from laboratory chemical floods. Some of that evidence is presented in this paper and in Reference (1). r the extent that this concept represents actuality, we could predict the course of a chemical flood from starting compositions of the rock (for ion exchange and mineral dissolution characteristics), oil, formation brine, chemical slug and drive—if we had phase volume and mobility data on all phases which would form during the flood.
