Tomorrow’s Clean Energy
We have discovered a means for achieving micro-thermonuclear fusion in vibrating gas bubbles in liquid
Our discovery allows constructing inexpensive power generators that run on deuterium
Our technology will render fossil fuels obsolete
Because our work parallels controversial “bubble fusion” we go against “expert opinion”
Everyone agrees that fusion energy (which powers the sun) is the power of future
Unlike chemical energy that comes from burning fossil fuels fusion energy produces no emissions
Unlike conventional nuclear power fusion does not produce radioactive waste
Unlike wind or solar power fusion energy does not require massive installations and is virtually free (deuterium is cheap and we need minuscule quantities)
Government has spent billions and decades of research on fusion projects involving giant magnets (magnetic confinement) and powerful lasers (inertial confinement)
These fusion mega-projects are unsuccessful but “too-big-to-fail”, so funding continues
Proponents of fusion mega-projects are threatened by “cold” fusion and “bubble fusion” and therefore will thrash any competing idea
Cavitation is a natural process that results in formation of bubbles in liquid
Cavitation bubbles expand and collapse violently releasing tremendous energy that easily eats through thick metal parts in pumps and turbines
Theoretical calculations show that under the right conditions gas within cavitation bubbles can heat up to fusion temperatures (millions degrees Celsius)!
Seven different groups in U.S. and Russia have conducted successful experiments demonstrating CIF
Unfortunately, widely publicized work by Taleyarkhan (Purdue), ended in scandal with lasting damage to the field
Critical account is given by Krivit (New Energy Times)
Politics, academic rivalry, and clashes with special interest groups killed otherwise promising field of research
As a result Taleyarkhan wasdebarred from federal funding andPurdue lost majority of it’s nuclearengineering faculty
The science, however, remains
1990: Lipson et al. (USSR)
2002: Taleyarkhan et al. (USA, ORNL)
2005: Xu et al. (USA, Purdue)
2006: Taleyarkhan et al. (USA, Purdue)
2006: Forringer et al. (USA, Purdue)
2006: Bugg et al. (USA, Purdue)
2008: Bityurin et al. (Russia)
2008: Smorodov et al. (Russia)
Conventional textbook physics (NOT cold fusion)
Solid theoretical foundation (dozens of papers)
4 independent successful experiments in USA, and 3 in Russia (Russian work is not known in the US)
Yet due to the “bubblegate” scandal the results are not universally accepted (skewed perception)
Aside from the CIF reactor, this is a completely standard power plant design
$1 million = 10% ownership, non-dilutable
We need at least $562k for 2012 to complete our R&D program
We are aiming to disrupt a multi-trillion dollar energy market. Our technology has a potential to displace all fossil and conventional nuclear fuels all together. Even if we capture just 0.1% of the market the expected ROI will be well in excess of 100x
The only foreseeable risk is in single-bubble fusion. Is it repeatable? Can we control it? We will eliminate this risk in 2012.
The rest of the hardware for commercial generator is essentially designed and requires only ordinary engineering.
Other technical risks may include inability to control fusion yield beyond break-even point for reasons we currently cannot think of. We will tackle this issue in 2013.
Smooth transition away from fossil fuels
Renewed technological leadership
Birth of an entire new industry = employment!
Markedly reduced energy and transportation costs = cheaper goods and services, hence
Higher consumer spending, GDP & tax revenue growth, reduced deficit
Markedly reduced energy and transportation costs = sharp improvement in living standards, hence
More middle class (and larger markets!)
Cheap desalination will solve food and water shortages, deserts will become oases
Reduced emissions of all types
A new age of prosperity for all of humanity
