I have a question, do you just present "news" or do you actually think this stuff is for realn? Cause as an Engineer with a masters degree, it certainly sounds like GOBOLTYGOOP! --- In free_energy@yahoogroups.com, "Sterling D. Allan" <sterlingda@g...> wrote: >How it (doesn't) Works "Depending on how we mix the metallic components, we can either increase or decrease the yield of hydrogen for a particular system's needs," said Bart Seigel, Director of Engineering at AEC. (I hope Siegel is not a MOT because if he is it's a SHANDA) The alloy "sets up a catalytic reaction that results in the cracking of water," said Seigel. (Cracking is heat induced distruction of large Organic molecules.) The process is pH sensitive. (of course it is, the metal dissolves in water liberating hydrogen, NaOH makes this easier) The alloy tablets will contain the necessary pH-effecting chemicals so that when the mixture is added to water, hydrogen bubbles out at a particular rate. The hydrogen then runs whatever application for which it is required -- on demand. No storage necessary. (yes uses up the metal, not big deal here, You've just made the biggest Carol Doda Special) The theory of how this is accomplished is not yet fully developed. (you mean your story changes every day) "The polar positioning of the metals somehow results in the changing of the properties of the metal," said Seigel. (you mean it works on the North pole but not the South) The alloy apparently "creates a magnetic field" that is involved in catalyzing the splitting of the hydrogen from the two oxygen molecules of water. ("creating a magentic field" is only digging you deeper, better you should not have mentioned that) In the past, they were having problems with oxidation -- or scumming -- of the alloy. They have resolved this now with the addition of a "promotor" in the mix. Oxygen combines with the alloy in the reaction. Thus the alloy is eventually spent and requires replacement. (AH HA! I smell the skunk already) [..] The raw materials for the secret alloy are found in abundance and will be easy to produce in mass quantities if this technology should become widespread. (Yes every person has these raw material in her kitchen) "No high-energy process is required in obtaining the alloy -- only mining," said Seigel. (This is a downright lie Siegel, No metal is just "mined" unless you are a cave man finding coper and gold nuggets, metals are SMELTED, a process that uses a lot of energy) Two of the metals are found ubiquitously in many mine tailings. (Yes Zinc is found in many Copper mine tailings) He envisions a bladder system that would add or remove water from the reaction in order to start and stop the production of hydrogen. (done that already) [...] A university with nuclear science specialty will also be analyzing and the alloy and theorizing how the process takes place. (I bet) (Why did you throw that Nuclear stuff in there? You think that the word has any cachet when your dealing with Zinc and Aluminum matalurgy? Who are you trying to impress?) [...] Presently they are focused on building their company management infrastructure. ( used car salemen would work fine, Preachers even better)
