Energy devices

Environmental Protection. Fumes resulting from exposure of anhydrous aluminum chloride to moisture are corrosive and acidic. Collection systems should be provided to conduct aluminum chloride dusts or gases to a scmbbing device. The choice of equipment, usually one of economics, ranges from simple packed-tower scmbbers to sophisticated high energy devices such as those of a Venturi design (11).

Finally, intrinsically safe electrical circuits are an old idea, whose time has just begun. Tomorrow s world will see ever greater uses of programmable controllors, robotics, solid state circuits, and other low energy devices. This is the world in which intrinsically safe circuits belong. 

Wave power The energy in waves can be captured in a number of ways. One method is to funnel the waves into a partially filled vertical tube, to form an oscillating water column. The motion of the water forces air back and forth through an air turbine to produce electricity. Power from such devices is already sold commercially to the grid in Scotland. Several other types of wave energy device are under development. 

Unalloyed tungsten has several major applications. An important use is in the electric lamp filaments for light bulbs. Also, it is used as electrodes in arcwelding, in heating elements for high-temperature furnaces, in electron and television tubes, in glass-to- metal seals, and in solar energy devices. 

An absorption factor above unity is ideal for a solar energy device as almost all the incident radiant power is collected. 

With the advent of nuclear weapons, particularly thermonuclear devices (hydrogen bombs), additional 14C was added to the atmosphere. This 14C, which we shall refer to as excess 14C, was produced by neutrons which escaped from the fireball interacting with nitrogen atoms of the atmosphere in the same manner as the neutrons from cosmic rays. Since the bulk of this 14C was probably produced by a few very high energy devices exploded high in the atmosphere, most of the excess 14C was likewise deposited in the stratosphere. 

The search for new-energy devices recognizes that in addition to new chemical discoveries and low-energy nuclear reactions, the tapping the energy of space is an acceptable energy source for one or more new energy devices. 

Dr. Randell Mills has invented, tested, improved, and submitted several patent applications on a new type of new-energy device. At least one of the patent applications has proceeded to the point where the Patent Gazette indicates that a patent is being issued. Dr. Randell Mills claims that the excess thermal energy produced is obtained from the collapse of the hydrogen atom. There is, as yet, no... 

Seldom is a new discovery made in isolation. The history of invention is replete with dramatic new discoveries that suddenly appear to have been anticipated by more than one inventor. It appears that the developments in a variety of new technologies are culminating in several new-energy devices that can provide multiple sources for abundant, clean, and inexpensive means to provide both... 

The near-term impact of the commercialization of new-energy devices will be relatively rapid. However, it is still expected to take a decade to penetrate the current 4.5 trillion annual fossil-fuel market to 10% [41]. Hundreds of billions of dollars will be spent in the manufacturing and marketing... 

For a book-length discussion of new-energy devices and their predicted impact on a variety of the world s markets, this author has written a book that is soon to be published [42],...

SMS project has National significance. The station collects solar radiation data to assist with evaluating and developing solar energy devices. Based on SMS data, engineers have calculated that one square meter of land in Yerevan receives about 1,700 kWh of sun power annually (please see Table 2) [4, 5],... 

Past experience shows that as the equipment needed for new technologies starts to be mass produced, its prices drop. The cost of wind power-generated electricity has already been reduced to one quarter of that of the first installations. An ultrathin-film solar collector manufacturer (Nanosolar) claims that it will soon market collectors at costs that are severalfold less expensive than today s PV prices. We do not know if that particular claim is correct or not, but we know that time is on our side. Therefore, it is realistic to expect that as markets expand, the costs of mass-produced renewable energy devices will also drop and the cost of transition to a solar-hydrogen economy over several decades will become not only affordable, but will also create jobs and an economic boom. We should remember that drastic changes can occur rapidly after all, a century ago electricity was a luxury that only 3% of the households had. The same will occur with renewable energy over the 21st century.
