[biofuel] peanut shell hydrogen production
Hi all, Some of you may be interested in this development. Charring Peanut Shells for Hydrogen Fuel Washington - Donald C. Reicosky, an Agricultural Research Service soil scientist at the North Central Soil Conservation Research Laboratory in Morris, Minn., has teamed up with an inventor of a patent-pending process to turn agricultural biomass--wastes like peanut shells--into hydrogen fuel and charcoal fertilizer. The inventor, Danny Day, president of Eprida, Inc., a technology and development company in Athens, Ga., has also joined forces with U.S. Department of Energy scientists who hold a patent on a related technology. Volatiles and steam released by charring biomass produce hydrogen. The charring turns the biomass into charcoal pieces. This charcoal becomes a nitrogen-enriched fertilizer with the addition of ammonia formed by combining a third of the hydrogen with nitrogen. The remaining hydrogen can be sold as fuel, both for a hydrogen-based, clean diesel and to run fuel cells. This morning, at the American Chemical Society's 228th national meeting, in Philadelphia, Pa., Day made a presentation on the fuel production. Tomorrow, he will discuss the charcoal's fertilizer value. The porous charcoal potentially gives soil microbes an improved environment for nutrient cycling. If the charcoal were used as a scrubber in the smokestack of a coal-burning power plant to remove carbon dioxide, it could then become more valuable as an ammonium bicarbonate nitrogen fertilizer. full article here http://www.alternate-energy.net/peanut_shell_hydrogen04.html regards http://groups.yahoo.com/group/next_generation_grid/ news resources forum http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tomorrow-energy/ Yahoo!

[biofuel] flow to wire
Hi all, If this thechnology works, it could go a long way to turning wasted energy into usable electricity. startup+newtech=?? regards http://www.rentricity.com/ Rentricity will use its proprietary Flow-to-Wire sm systems to capture untapped energy created by various man-made processes and transform it into electricity. This surplus energy is available within pipes and systems where gases, liquids or solids exert excess pressure. Rentricity currently serves public water distribution utility systems to transform excess pressure in water mains into electricity. Each Flow-to-Wiresm device will produce between 20 kilowatts (KW) and 100 KW per hour and will operate continuously. The Flow-to-Wiresm systems have no environmental impact and will be comparably sized to the valves that presently reduce pressures but do not perform useful work with the energy produced.

[biofuel] pentagon article(free part)
Hi all, the link I posted yesterday may have got cut. Here is an excerpt Pentagon article link (free part) The Pentagon's Weather Nightmare The climate could change radically, and fast. That would be the mother of all national security issues. By David Stipp Global warming may be bad news for future generations, but let's face it, most of us spend as little time worrying about it as we did about al Qaeda before 9/11. Like the terrorists, though, the seemingly remote climate risk may hit home sooner and harder than we ever imagined. In fact, the prospect has become so real that the Pentagon's strategic planners are grappling with it. The threat that has riveted their attention is this: Global warming, rather than causing gradual, centuries-spanning change, may be pushing the climate to a tipping point. Growing evidence suggests the ocean-atmosphere system that controls the world's climate can lurch from one state to another in less than a decade like a canoe that's gradually tilted until suddenly it flips over. Scientists don't know how close the system is to a critical threshold. But abrupt climate change may well occur in the not-too-distant future. If it does, the need to rapidly adapt may overwhelm many societies thereby upsetting the geopolitical balance of power. Though triggered by warming, such change would probably cause cooling in the Northern Hemisphere, leading to longer, harsher winters in much of the U.S. and Europe. Worse, it would cause massive droughts, turning farmland to dust bowls and forests to ashes. Picture last fall's California wildfires as a regular thing. Or imagine similar disasters destabilizing nuclear powers such as Pakistan or Russia÷it's easy to see why the Pentagon has become interested in abrupt climate change. Climate researchers began getting seriously concerned about it a decade ago, after studying temperature indicators embedded... http://www.fortune.com/fortune/technology/articles/0,15114,582584,00.h tml regards Tomorrow-Energy News Group Daily Alternative Energy News and Resources Added Information about the future world energy mix practical alternative energy options: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tomorrow-energy/ Yahoo!

[biofuel] microbial hydrogen production
Microbial Hydrogen Production http://www.afrlhorizons.com/Briefs/Jun03/ML0227.html Researchers explore microbial hydrogen production as key to an alternative energy source at bare base facilities (locations without permanent living facilities). AFRL's Materials and Manufacturing Directorate, Airbase Technologies Division, Weapons Systems Logistics Branch, Tyndall AFB FL Researchers at the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate are developing a biological method of producing hydrogen from waste streams created by dining halls, kitchens, latrines, and other places at bare base facilities. When successful, researchers will demonstrate that hydrogen production from bare base waste streams is a feasible alternative energy source for fuel cells. Using hydrogen as an alternative energy source is an exciting option due to its high conversion efficiency and nonpolluting nature. Bare base facilities have as many as 1,100 military personnel who live in temporary housing. Their mission often requires the base to function for several years, with the host nation providing little or no services. Currently, MEP-12 diesel generators produce the electrical power needs of the base. Directorate researchers in the Weapons Systems Logistics Branch are currently developing a two-reactor hydrogen generation system that is expected to reduce logistical burdens, pollution, and noise associated with using current diesel energy generators for energy production.1 Hydrogen-driven fuel cells will lower diesel fuel consumption and minimize the use of fossil fuels for hydrogen production. Though hydrogen is the most abundant element on earth, it is bound to other elements from which it must be separated before it can be used in energy generation. Microorganisms exist containing enzymes that produce hydrogen from waste materials, providing a seemingly inexhaustible source of material for hydrogen production. Many anaerobic organisms can produce hydrogen from organic substances, converting carbohydrates in a fermentative process to organic acids and hydrogen. For example, researchers can convert glucose to two acetate molecules, releasing four hydrogen molecules. The hydrogenase enzyme responsible for the reaction works very rapidly; however, the process stops at the organic acid, which retains significant bound hydrogen. full article http://www.afrlhorizons.com/Briefs/Jun03/ML0227.html regards Aternate Energy Resource Network resources-news sources updated through out the day http://www.alternate-energy.net Join tomorrow-energy yahoo news group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tomorrow-energy/ Weekly News Alerts http://www.alternate-energy.net/newsalerts04-12.html Alternative Energy System Calculators http://www.alternate-energy.net/calcsyst04.html Yahoo!

[biofuel] Hybrids put to the test
Coming In Out Of The Cold; Hybrids put to the test By Jennifer Lee Point Roberts, WA, Delta B.C.- May 25, 2004 With gas prices reaching an all time high and not much promise of an end in sight, hybrid technology is falling under the lens of some careful scrutiny these days with investors. In a recent article in MIT's Technology Review, author Peter Fairley estimates though buyers would have to pay more initially for gas-electric hybrids, they could save, on average, $5,000 at the gas pump over the 15-year life of a vehicle. full article http://www.alternate-energy.net/hydrogen_hybrids04.html Alternative Energy Weekly News Alerts http://www.alternate-energy.net/newsalerts04-12.html Alternative Energy System Calculators http://www.alternate-energy.net/calcsyst04.html Magnetism and Magnetic Physics http://www.alternate-energy.net/hist04-1b.html Electro-Magnetics http://www.alternate-energy.net/electromagnetic04.html Software Tools for Magnetic Field Visualization, electromagnetic and High Frequency Electromagnetic Simulation etc. http://www.alternate-energy.net/soft04.html Magnetic Levitation and Magnetic Physics resources http://www.alternate-energy.net/electrolev04b.html Alternative Energy Resource Webring http://scripts.cgispy.com/webring/webring.cgi?id=tallex123456 Alternate Energy Resource Network http://www.alternate-energy.net Yahoo!

[biofuel] hydrogen highway
Hydrogen Highway http://www.alternate-energy.net/hydrogen_highway04.html The Hydrogen Highway California's answer to higher gas prices. May 20 , 2004 By Allen Gibson The price of oil surpassed forty dollars a barrel this Spring - a high not seen except for a few days prior to the first Gulf War. The experts agree that the price is likely to stay high for the next few years, and after that it may go are you ready for this? even higher. Famous Texas Oilman T. Boone Pickens, speaking recently to a large crowd at the Petroleum Club in Midland, Texas, predicted that oil would never fall below $30 a barrel again. I think you'll see $50 a barrel before you see $30, declared Mr. Pickens. Is the high cost of energy a surprise? Did no one see this coming? No, and yes. Oil industry observers have been saying for decades that oil production will peak soon, that supplies will begin to drop on a global scale and that, someday, we will just plain run out. We aren't there yet. Production, in fact, has been slowly but steadily increasing for the past two decades. But what most people seem to have missed is the surge in demand and consumption in the worlds' two most populous nations, China and India. full article http://www.alternate-energy.net/hydrogen_highway04.html Alternative Energy Weekly News Alerts http://www.alternate-energy.net/newsalerts04-12.html Magnetism and Magnetic Physics http://www.alternate-energy.net/hist04-1b.html Electro-Magnetics http://www.alternate-energy.net/electromagnetic04.html Software Tools for Magnetic Field Visualization, electromagnetic and High Frequency Electromagnetic Simulation etc. http://www.alternate-energy.net/soft04.html Magnetic Levitation and Magnetic Physics resources http://www.alternate-energy.net/electrolev04b.html Alternate Energy Resource Network http://www.alternate-energy.net Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Biofuels list archives: http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/biofuel/ Please do NOT send Unsubscribe messages to the list address.

[biofuel] magnetic refrigeration
Hi all, I thought that these article archives would be of interest to some members. Great strides would be made in energy efficiency, an economical way to liquify hydrogen and environmental benefits could be some of the results if this technology is brought to market. Some of these sources are 5 years old so they have been working on these devices for several years. regards http://www.external.ameslab.gov/news/release/2001rel/01magneticrefrig. htm Contacts: Karl Gschneidner, Jr., Metallurgy and Ceramics, (515) 294-7931 Kerry Gibson, Public Affairs, (515) 294-1405 MAGNETIC REFRIGERATOR SUCCESSFULLY TESTED Ames Laboratory developments push boundaries of new refrigeration technology Using materials developed at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory, researchers have successfully demonstrated the world's first room temperature, permanent-magnet, magnetic refrigerator. The refrigerator was developed by Milwaukee-based Astronautics Corporation of America as part of a cooperative research and development agreement with Ames Laboratory. Instead of ozone-depleting refrigerants and energy-consuming compressors found in conventional vapor-cycle refrigerators, this new style of refrigerator uses gadolinium metal that heats up when exposed to a magnetic field, then cools down when the magnetic field is removed. We're witnessing history in the making, Ames Laboratory senior metallurgist Karl Gschneidner Jr. says of the revolutionary device. Previous successful demonstration refrigerators used large superconducting magnets, but this is the first to use a permanent magnet and operate at room temperature. Initially tested in September at the Astronautics Corporation of America's Technology Center in Madison, Wis., the new refrigerator is undergoing further testing. The goal is to achieve larger temperature swings that will allow the technology to provide the cooling power required for specific markets, such as home refrigerators, air conditioning, electronics cooling, and fluid chilling. According to Gschneidner, who is also an Anson Marston Distinguished Professor of materials science and engineering at Iowa State University, the magnetic refrigerator employs a rotary design. It consists of a wheel that contains segments of gadolinium powder ö supplied by Ames Laboratory ö and a high-powered, rare earth permanent magnet. The wheel is arranged to pass through a gap in the magnet where the magnetic field is concentrated. As it passes through this field, the gadolinium in the wheel exhibits a large magnetocaloric effect ö it heats up. After the gadolinium enters the field, water is circulated to draw the heat out of the metal. As the material leaves the magnetic field, the material cools further as a result of the magnetocaloric effect. A second stream of water is then cooled by the gadolinium. This water is then circulated through the refrigerator's cooling coils. The overall result is a compact unit that runs virtually silent and nearly vibration free, without the use of ozone-depleting gases, a dramatic change from the vapor-compression-style refrigeration technology in use today. The permanent magnets and the gadolinium don't require any energy inputs to make them work, Gschneidner said, so the only energy it takes is the electricity for the motors to spin the wheel and drive the water pumps. Though the test further proves the technology works, two recent developments at Ames Laboratory could lead to even greater advances on the magnetic refrigeration frontier. Gschneidner and fellow Ames Laboratory researchers Sasha Pecharsky and Vitalij Pecharsky have developed a process for producing kilogram quantities of Gd5(Si2Ge2) alloy using commercial-grade gadolinium. Gd5(Si2Ge2) exhibits a giant magnetocaloric effect which offers the promise to outperform the gadolinium powders used in the current rotary refrigerator. When the alloy was first discovered in 1996, the process used high-purity gadolinium and resulted in small quantities (less than 50 grams). However, when lower-quality commercial-grade gadolinium was used, the magnetocaloric effect was only a fraction, due mainly to interstitial impurities, especially carbon. The new process overcomes the deleterious effect of these impurities, making it viable to use less expensive commercial-grade gadolinium to achieve roughly the same magnetocaloric effect as the original discovery. At the same time, Ames Lab researchers David Jiles and Seong-Jae Lee, along with Vitalij Pecharsky and Gschneidner, have designed a permanent magnet configuration capable of producing a stronger magnetic field. The new magnet can produce a magnetic field nearly twice as high as that produced by the magnet used in the initial refrigerator, an important advance since the output and efficiency of the
[biofuel] swine manure can become crude oil
Hi all, This is interesting research. We really have to accelerate the development of sustainable technologies like these and lighten our footprint on this planet. Research shows swine manure can become crude oil Monday April 12, 2004 By JIM PAUL Associated Press Writer URBANA, Ill. (AP) A University of Illinois research team is working on turning pig manure into a form of crude oil that could be refined to heat homes or generate electricity. Years of research and fine-tuning are ahead before the idea could be commercially viable, but results so far indicate there might be big benefits for farmers and consumers, lead researcher Yanhui Zhang said. ``This is making more sense in terms of alternative energy or renewable energy and strategically for reducing our dependency on foreign oil,'' said Zhang, an associate professor of agricultural and biological engineering. ``Definitely, there is potential in the long term.'' The thermochemical conversion process uses intense heat and pressure to break down the molecular structure of manure into oil. It's much like the natural process that turns organic matter into oil over centuries, but in the laboratory the process can take as little as a half-hour. A similar process is being used at a plant in Carthage, Mo., where tons of turkey entrails, feathers, fats and grease from a nearby Butterball turkey plant are converted into a light crude oil, said Julie DeYoung, a spokeswoman for Conagra Foods, which operates the plant in a joint venture with Long Island-based Changing World Technologies. But converting manure is sure to catch the attention of swine producers. Safe containment of livestock waste is costly for farmers, especially at large confinement operations where thousands of tons of manure are produced each year. Also, odors produced by swine farms have made them a nuisance to neighbors. ``If this ultimately becomes one of the silver bullets to help the industry, I'm absolutely in favor of it,'' said Jim Kaitschuk, executive director of the Illinois Pork Producers Association. Zhang and his research team have found that converting manure into crude oil is possible in small batches, but much more research is needed to develop a continuously operating reaction chamber that could handle large amounts of manure. That is key to making the process practicable and economically viable. Zhang predicted that one day a reactor the size of a home furnace could process the manure generated by 2,000 hogs at a cost of about $10 per barrel. In a best-case scenario, $1.5 billion in crude oil imports could be saved each year if 50 percent of the nation's swine farms used the technology, Zhang said. And he estimated the value of hogs would increase $10 to $15 each if the oil that their waste produces could be sold for $30 per barrel. Big oil refineries are unlikely to purchase crude oil made from converted manure, Zhang said, because they aren't set up to refine it. But the oil could be used to fuel smaller electric or heating plants, or to make plastics, ink or asphalt, he said. ``Crude oil is our first raw material,'' he said. ``If we can make it value-added, suddenly the whole economic picture becomes brighter.'' ^ = On the Net: Yanhui Zhang's Web site: http://www.age.uiuc.edu/faculty/yhz/index.htm Aternate Energy Resource Network resources-news sources updated through out the day http://www.alternate-energy.net Weekly News Alerts http://www.alternate-energy.net/newsalerts04-12.html Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Biofuels list archives: http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/biofuel/ Please do NOT send Unsubscribe messages to the list address.

[biofuel] New motor technology
Hi all, I couldn't resist posting this article. Using ebay to auction off promising technology is certainly a novel approach. It remains to be seen if this is for real. If it is legit, there is also a good possability that it will gvet bought up and kept off the market by some corporation. We will see. Veteran Inventor Revs Up The Creativity For Pollution-Free, Alternative Fuel Motor Conversion Kit. All Rights, Trade Secrets To Go To Highest eBay Bidder May 10 - May 20, 2004. A newly developed technology that allows motors to run pollution free on alternative fuels can be purchased by the highest bidder on eBay in May, 2004. (PRWEB) April 10, 2004--www.merittinternational.com/pollutionfree It's a story that is unique in every way. A successful invention/product development veteran creates an innovative new technology that converts typical engines into pollution free motors - novel and newsworthy in and of itself. However, what this creative entrepreneur plans to do with his patented-pending technology is what makes the story even more unique. About Ron Meritt/Meritt International, Inc. Ronald R. Meritt of Meritt International in San Luis Obispo, California is a successful inventor and product development specialist who may be best known as the inventor of the original portable car video player - Video Traveler: www.videotraveler.com Meritt's concept for mobile video units is currently being used in thousands of vehicles worldwide. Meritt is now using that expertise to bring new products to market and is adding a focus of developing green products that are environmentally friendly. About the Meritt International Pollution-Free Alternative Fuel Motor Conversion Kit: When installed on a gas combustion motor, the conversion kit allows the motor to run on a variety of alternate fuels or gasses and be virtually pollution free. Meritt has designed the conversion kit to allow motors to run on either flammable or non-flammable fuels, meaning that a properly converted motor using this technology may run on just about any gas or liquid, including water. Meritt actually began working on this technology back in the 1970's when the gasoline crisis was at its peak. But the uncompleted project was set aside as Meritt pursued other ventures. However, now, with gas prices potentially rising to as much as $3 per gallon and the United States' increasing dependence on foreign oil, this technology has new significance and potential. So Meritt recently resurrected the project and after months of fine-tuning he now has finalized a working prototype. Unlike the highly publicized fuel-cell or hydrogen technologies that are in development right now, this motor conversion kit is different because it is an upgrade kit that potentially could be installed on almost any gas combustion engine used in cars, trucks, boats, garden equipment, etc. As evidenced on the downloadable video link above, Meritt successfully installed his invention on a small 100 cc motorcycle engine to prove its functionality and capabilities. The prototyped motor, which was recently evaluated at a fully licensed motor vehicle smog inspection station in California, emits a measured exhaust that is 99% pollution free. What's more, the conversion kit allows the motor to actually exhaust high levels of oxygen, making it possible to literally breathe the engine exhaust. The design of the pollution-free motor is protected by a pending patent, and many of the modifications are trade secrets known only to Meritt and his development team. As far as providing additional information on the technology, what can be mentioned is that there have been extensive internal and external mechanical and electrical modifications to the prototype motor. With further development, this first-stage technology has extensive market potential for use in cars, trucks, boats, tractors, gas powered garden equipment, generators and any other gas powered products. Unique Marketing of the Technology - eBay Is The Way (May 10 - May 20, 2004) Instead of the typical licensing avenues that similar technologies might be subjected to, Meritt has decided to try a somewhat unorthodox yet creative marketing angle. He will sell the rights to the technology and a working prototype on eBay to the highest bidder, with no minimum bid. The online auction start date will run from May 10 - May 20, 2004. The bids will be for the one-time technology transfer fee that includes pending patents, trade secrets, a fully functional prototype engine, and all documentation associated with this invention. It will give the buyer full profit making capabilities with no future royalties going to Meritt International. Once purchased, the buyer is free to further develop the technology for as many industry applications as possible. Meritt is confident that a corporation, university or entrepreneur will be able to acquire his

SLU student and his chemistry adviser may have the spark for something big By Shera Dalin 03/29/2004 Imagine powering up your cell phone's battery with vodka and having the charge last for a week. An area seed-money group was so taken with the idea of turning hooch into juice that it invested $400,000 in cash and in-kind services with the St. Louis company that is developing the technology. BioGenerator, a new seed-capital company, signed a deal Friday with Akermin Inc. Potential uses for Akermin's technology include powering a cell phone or laptop computer using vodka, beer or any other ethanol-based substance. Cooking oil, sugar and many other organic substances will work, too, but ethanol is more efficient, Akers said. full story here http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/business/stories.nsf/Business/A8E1F5E 9777F1AA786256E67001F3526?
