Therefore, this text is written with the intent of agathoteres with respect and love for the island

The aim of this article is to try to inform responsible and scientific approach to some extent the Nisyrian community, maintaining a simplified way of writing on the topic of Geothermal has revived the island.
Having in mind the energy future of the island, this article will move in three main axes of the project Geothermal Nisyros, the politico-social, economical and environmental - focusing mainly on the top. The signatories will strive to cite all technical data and arguments in a way understandable to draw conclusions about the viability of such a project steam diagram on the island, the growth potential that may be established and how they affect the daily lives of residents.
We should mention that we advance towards the negative exploitation of geothermal energy in Greece, and any renewable energy source for electricity production required, especially steam diagram in the age we live in, where the use of non-polluting and renewable energy sources has unpleasant impact on the health and economy of our country.
Therefore, this text is written with the intent of agathoteres with respect and love for the island and the uniqueness of its beauty. So we urge all who nourish respectively feelings and seek the truth about this serious issue, to read to the end.
The geothermal potential of our country began to be investigated, evaluated and recorded by the 1972 main body of basic research steam diagram was IGME (Institute of Geology steam diagram and Mineral Exploration), which has covered a significant part of the Greek territory. Systematic evaluation and processing of data collected for the determination of geothermal resources began in 1977 as a result steam diagram of a general cooperation agreement between PPC and ENEL (Italy).
The beginning of a research program focused on the islands of Milos, Nisyros and Lesbos, and the areas of Methana Sperchios and Aedipsou - ie areas from time immemorial been known for its hot springs. steam diagram Then added other locations, Kos, Santorini, Kimolos, the surrounding area of the Strymon, Xanthi, Samothrace Ebro and others [1].
The data collected after treatment and evaluation led to the conclusion that the potential nationwide high enthalpy (ie it can be used for electricity generation) justifies the installation geothermoilektrikon power units 400MW - 1,1GW. The proven high enthalpy fields are Milos, Nisyros and Lesbos, where the PPC 2003 received steam diagram from the Ministry of Development (following a positive opinion from RAE), licensed power 8 MW in geothermal field in Stypsi aimed cover the base load of the island. That production license on the development of the geothermal steam diagram area of Stypsi ultimately to the installation of CHP Electricity installed capacity of 8 MW.
The development of the cogeneration unit is the construction of an exploration drilling (running now), the construction of two production wells, feasibility study, and finally the construction of 2-3 new wells. Of these four wells will be productive both re [2].
The existing geothermal fields classified as to their origin into two categories: those resulting from relatively recent volcanic activity and produce superheated steam or mixtures of steam and water from relatively shallow depth (up to 3km). In this case belongs Nisyros. In those present in sedimentary basins and tectonic katakrymniseis heat flow greater than or equal to the mean Earth. These fields steam diagram are able to accommodate underground aquifer rocks, significant quantities of hot water under pressure. One such example is the case of Basel in Switzerland.
e. Provision of water for the operation of the geothermal field. steam diagram The geothermal fluid, which transfers heat from the heat source to the surface of the Earth for exploitation is largely H2O liquid or gaseous state. steam diagram The geothermal fluid but this is in no case clean but contains various components in gaseous form and dissolved steam diagram or suspended solids, which engages as it passes through the various reservoir rocks. Other than these compounds is exploited, e.g. CO2, but others make it difficult to exploit the field, such as various salts which generate scaling the pumping system and processing and other harmful and dangerous, such as arsenic.
