Engineering Power

Beam pumping and electric submersible pumps (ESP) require a source of power. On land it may be convenient to tap into the local electricity network, or in the case of the beam pump to use a diesel powered engine. Offshore (ESP only) provision for power generation must be made to drive down hole electric pumps.

Solubility. An important aspect of sihca chemistry concerns the sihca— water system. The interaction of the various forms of sihca with water has geological significance and is apphed in steam-power engineering where the volatilization of sihca and its deposition on turbine blades may occur (see Power generation), in the production of synthetic quartz crystals by hydrothermal processes (qv), and in the preparation of commercially important soluble sihcates, coUoidal sihca, and sihca gel.
