Rapid construction system for housing complex

Developed with Haiti in mind. The idea is to greatly reduce costs but most importantly, reduce time to implement.

The technology is a hybrid between cement block construction and SIP technology (Structural Insulated Panels). The minerals for making cement are readily available in Haiti (and many third world countries as well).

Re-coil method

This method is somewhat similar to a machine gun, in terms of using re-coil method to generate force ( power).

A cylindrical heavy object is placed on the circular track which has pressure points . This heavy mass will be tilted to an angel where it becomes very easy to rotate it with very less force .

Realistic Solar Energy Implementation

A cleanest form of energy for our planet also renews itself daily challenging efficiency rates i.e. energy output compared to the solar energy input which has been uncommercially low now changing as new materials yield substantial improvements. Consequently interest is now quickly growing for solar energy as a serious alternative source of energy. Manufacturers of solar energy panels,

Recyclable Portable Container

There are three problems surrounding traditional agriculture:

1) It’s a direct contributor to obesity epidemic; children’s resistance to eating greens is a normal body response to flavorless produce.

2) Transportation from hundreds of miles away.

3) Low yields per unit of water and energy add to global starvation and wars.

Reduce Surface tension+freezing point of water

Recent scientific studies have verified that the surface tension and freezing point of water can be lowered by negative electrostatic charge.All metals , minerals, proteins and amino acids never go into solution; they are held in suspension as minute particles by negative electrostatic charge on colloids- a little understood application of Zeta Potential.

Roof Top Wind Turbine

The reason rooftop turbine designs have not enjoyed commercial success in the past is more due to technological shortcomings than demand. Companies have tried to scale down familiar fan blade style designs that would normally be mounted on a tower to avoid turbulence, but these mini-turbines lack adequate surface area to be efficient.

Rotational Induction Engine

The Rotational Induction Engine is an electromagnetic induction engine that provides a proper alternative solution to internal combustion engines. Derived from linear induction and linear synchronous motors, the linear motion of electromagnetic propulsion seen on many standing- launch roller coasters can also be used to propel vehicles. Changing linear induction to rotational induction accommodates a more powerful,

Rural electrification using wind mills

Wind turbines generate power at costs comparable to fossil fuel electricity, which makes them ideal for substitution especially in remote areas. But current problems with the technology include high initial cost needed for mounting the wind turbines on a higher ground to capture higher winds. The model developed here is designed for the remote rural villages in India,

Save Energy: Eliminate 9/10ths Gasoline Pricing

One of the simplest elements of sustainability is waste reduction. We can significantly reduce energy usage and plastics consumption by eliminating "9/10ths" gas pricing, especially from digital LED signs. These are powered 24/365, and although the LEDs are very low-wattage, the cumulative amount of electricity used to power the 9/10 LEDs is surprisingly large,
