New Technologies in Sustainable Hydrogen Production from Hydrocarbons and Waste Plastics

Molten Metal Reactor Technology – Prospects in Sustainable Hydrogen Production

Globally, Hydrogen (H2) has been consumed for a variety of purposes, majorly as a feedstock or raw material and for the refining process. However, recently, H2 has been widely promoted by the international energy agency (IEA) as an energy carrier to become an alternative to fossil fuel-based hydrocarbons.

Solar Power-Assisted EV Battery Balancing System

Li-ion battery systems are widely used in electrified vehicles. The imbalance of state-of-charge (SOC) between battery modules/cells will bring detrimental effects to the battery. The conventional balancing schemes equalize battery by discharging high SOC cells. They waste useful energy and are not widely applied to balance battery modules. On the other hand,

FUSION™ Solar-powered LED

Our solar technology (a Distributed Generation) is gaining traction in the United States, and I believe it’s a worthy entry. We truly have a credible value proposition, and it’s an easy, efficient, and simple process to combine Solar FUSION™ during an LED Lighting upgrade. In fact, with the Solar Investment Tax Credit (26%),

Stop Global Warming with World's Most Efficient Engine

The International Energy Agency states that current technology can provide only half of the CO2 reductions required by 2050. The major shortfall is energy, notably for the increasing global need for electrical power.

Steam turbines presently generate 89% of the world’s electricity, but they waste 2/3 of their fuel.

Solar Deployed Rotating Buildings

It is well known that the sun's path is set naturally under a fixed timetable and can be easily predicted using the sun's Equation by only inputting longitude, latitude and date, day, month of the year.

WaveLifter

The power of each wave hitting the shore is all the energy input required to lift water to an elevation where gravity takes over and drives a generator.

A set of interconnected and hinged panels are impacted by the wave striking the shore. The wave flattens the panels as they guide the water up past each succeeding panel.

Oil Cleanup and Remediation through Compost

Oil spills in oceans and waterways are self-evident. This described technology is an inexpensive method of remediating the spill. It is a compost derived from fruits and vegetables in a patented bioreactor inoculated with specific bacillus. The aerobic bioreactor monitors three levels of composition and maintains the proper temperature and oxygen levels for maximum results.

Renewable Water Source

Southern California suffers from drought conditions and reservoirs are being reduced at rates greater than they are replenished. The Pacific Ocean borders the California coast but salt water is not acceptable for agriculture or consumption. My idea is to use renewable, "green" methods to produce fresh water from the ocean, primarily for agriculture.

Dig a series of wells,
