A system for restoration of a salty terminal lake utilizing several technologies to form a self-sustaining functional lake, the system comprising:
- a) at least one ocean pipeline system with a service road fluidly connecting an ocean with a central section of the salty terminal lake to provide a flow of water from the ocean to the central section of the salty terminal lake while redirecting the current inflow of waters from a first canal before the water is polluted with pesticides and fertilizers, and establish flow to the ocean and to additionally fill-up a nearby dry lake;
- b) wherein the at least one ocean pipeline system includes a portion that provides inflow from the ocean into the central section of the salty terminal lake includes multiple pipeline sections on uphill sections and one pipeline section in at least one downhill section wherein the multiple pipeline sections on uphill sections have slower fluid speed to accommodate a same volume of fluid in the one pipeline section in the at least one downhill section having higher fluid speed, that is caused by hydrostatic pressure at the bottom of the at least one downhill section comprising primary generators and secondary generators that have a continuous spiral blade inside rotor, arranged to harness hydro power;
- c) wherein the primary generators and secondary generators are in-line generators operating to generate electricity used for operating an in-line pump coupled to segments of the for multiple pipeline sections on uphill sections;
- d) two dikes positioned on opposing ends of the salty terminal lake thereby dividing the lake into three sections including a first section, a second section and the central section located between the first section and the second section to prevent contamination of the central section with pesticides and fertilizers, and the first and second sections are configured to form vast wildlife sanctuaries;
- e) a first pipeline system installed between the first canal and farmland adjacent to the first section of the salty terminal lake, wherein the first pipeline system is configured to transport water from the first canal to the farmland and then to the first section of the salty terminal lake;
- f) a second pipeline system installed between a second canal and farmland adjacent to the second section of the salty terminal lake, wherein the second pipeline system is configured to transport water from the second canal to the farmland and then to the second section of the salty terminal lake;
- g) a dike of the two dikes surrounding at least one area of the first section of the salty terminal lake configured for building geothermal plants on exposed portions of a lakebed to access a geothermal reservoir, thereby refilling the salty terminal lake to a full level and providing dry land for harnessing geothermal energy and extraction of lithium without destruction of the salty terminal lake;
- and
- h) solar panel assemblies coupled to the at least one ocean pipeline system, the first pipeline system, the second pipeline system and other locations for harnessing solar energy;
- i) Harnessing hydropower during importation of seawater into the central section of the salty terminal lake and during refilling of the first section of the salty terminal lake and the second section of the salty terminal lake with water from the first canal and the second canal respectively;
- j) Providing an irrigation system for farmlands adjacent to the first section and the section of the salty terminal lake with a sprinkler system to be used as needed to prevent a formation of contaminated runoff waters;
- k) Providing a condition for building several recreational parks with relatively smaller circulating lakes and nearby fish farming facilities using water from the first and second canals;
- l) Protecting damage from wildfires through utilization of control valves operating as fire hydrants, the control valves installed at various locations of at least one of the pipeline systems;
- m) Generating electricity by harnessing geothermal energy;
- n) Generating distilled water as a by-product during generation of electricity and desalinization of the central section of the salty terminal lake;
- o) Generating salty concentrated brine as a by product from salty water of the salty terminal lake, during desalinization of the salty terminal lake and generation of electricity, in addition to extraction of Lithium from the brine of the known geothermal reservoirs;
- p) producing hydrogen from water of the salty terminal lake using electric energy generated from geothermal and solar energy;
- q) Safely depositing waste material after extraction of Lithium from the brine by diluting waste material, if needed, with water from a bottom of the salty terminal lake and injecting waste material into a depleting geothermal reservoir nearby through an injection well of an existing conventional geothermal power plant;
- r) Connecting roadways positioned on each side of the salty terminal lake by using the two dikes for dividing the salty terminal lake into the three sections of the salty terminal lake;
- s) Building hotel resorts on a shore of the salty terminal lake with wave generating facility;
- and
- t) Building amphibian airports near piers with restaurants for bringing tourist on charter trips for sightseeing.
