WHAT a cool idea. I want one to play with.

Actually say something coherent. Let's start with you admitting that there is no such thing a "free energy."

friend, if you want to twist people's words & cast aspersions on Maxwell while you're at it, do it on your own time. This is getting trollish, no thanks

Yes you are Aristotle

I might as well attempt to summarize Aristotle in five words. Really don't have the time, running a business.

Your statement is incoherent and so are the books you are pointing to. If you want to have a discussion, please provide a rational, well structured point.

I should rephrase that a bit as it was not directed towards yourself. It's just that the entirety of electromagnetic theory as practiced, is cobbled together with a number of known inaccuracies, based on outdated theories that go back to the time of the Civil war, when they didn't understand if they were measuring a transverse wave or a longitudinal wave etc. . The engineering departments seem to be missing the findings of the Physics departments. The fact that standard circuit design builds in self defeating back EMF as example. In layman's terms its a little like closing a shutter over a windmill or solar panel as the current begins to flow. Whatever. Each has to do their own homework. Gotta go.

I respect the fact that you are a patent attorney of note etc- would only briefly mention that they are not discussing "a vacuum" in the terms you are thinking of it. Don't really have time to discuss for instance 1: the difference between Maxwell's Theorems with 26 points of freedom, versus Heaviside's misinterpretations which ignore any overunity considerations...2: open loop vs closed loop systems. 3: the term " free energy' is generally a misnomer & as popularly misunderstood as many other things that people get a surface view of without taking the effort to understand & wish to reduce to their level of ignorance....ironically while we are obliviously whirling through space within a breathtakingly designed system of spheres, with lightning touching down all over the planet all the time, etc...

Yes and Free Energy is a contradiction.

"Contradictions do not exist. When you are facing a contradiction, check your premises. One of them is wrong."

I have never seen any of these free energy, energy from a vacuum ideas that are credible.

BTW: There is no such thing as free energy

I applaud these gasifier technologies but there is something much closer to Galt's concept that is at hand. Check out the work of Tom Bearden, Bedini, Lindemann, et al.

Besides Tesla, there have been T Henry Moray & many others, they can't kill them all. The answers are right in front of us. For that matter the Ark of the Covenant was basically a large capacitor storing static charge. There is potential approx 200-300V for every meter above ground.

Methane and inventions like this show that the phrase "fossil fuel" is a misnomer.

All carbon based fuels are really solar energy and this invention and natural gas shows that it does not take millions of years to convert the complex hydrocarbons into useful fuels.

I Love this. Being a mechanical moron, I can appreciate the ingenuity of such a device.

Cool. Thanks for the post.

Chickens I have (well, 'chicken' at the moment - and some happy full coyotes around the hills). I can easily do an animal-poop production estate.

We'll process any yard waste and put it to good use. Believe it or not, at one point, we were processing cow and chicken poop for associations of farmers. It's a lot better business than it sounds like.

Thank you for the link. That is impressive. And I always wanted to plant walnut trees...

Jan

Looks pretty cool, interesting.

Though I prefer fusion :)

Sounds interesting.

This is what you heard of. Back in early 2008 when my company was at its peak, this company was the one my company identified as one of its few suppliers and few potential competitors.

This one does use pyrolysis as a means of gasification, followed by more efficient burning. The one my former company used looked like a miniature rocket engine and used a more efficient plasma arc reactor instead of burning the gases. This is a rather significant improvement, but not enough better than I would re-invent the plasma arc reactor if we were in Atlantis somewhere. It would be too much work for an incremental improvement, when there would be so many other things to do in such a new situation.

db-his name is j

Hi Jay,

Is the idea that the device uses pyrolysis to produce gases that can then be burned more efficiently. I have heard of a similar thing for plastics.
