Under circumstances where the resource temperature and the reduction of pressure causes separation of a significant steam fraction from the fluid flow from the well, a flash steam plant design may be the best choice. Under these conditions, the moderate to high temperature two-phase (steam and brine) fluid from the well flows to a separator, with the steam piped to the plant where it drives the turbine and generates electricity. The brine is directed to an injection wellfield for return to the geothermal reservoir. Prior to steam entry into the turbine, it is processed to remove any extraneous liquid, and particulate matter.
