  1. Clean fuel for future multi-megawatt electrical power generation and heating Howard Phillips and Thomas H. Pike

  2. Coal replaced by Hydrogen? Coal Why can’t it happen?

  3. Coal replaced by Hydrogen? • Why can’t it happen? • No better fuel exists • Will NOT happen until a better fuel exists • Method needed to make cheap HOD What method?

  4. Method to make cheap HOD Water A better idea, to get more hydrogen Catalyst

  5. New CATALYST Input Output Advantages: High reaction rate – lots of hydrogen. No electrical input, no electrolyte, no corrosion, no emissions and no environmental problems. What is CC?

  6. What is Catalytic Carbon? Normal carbon, chemically treated to become a heterogeneous catalyst Patent Pending Output Input Not consumed Advantage Other advantages?

  7. Advantages One Aluminum atom three hydrogen atoms Water to aluminum ratio = 3 FUEL Other advantages?

  8. Advantages Catalytic Carbon will be cheaper, pound-for-pound than bottled water. When Catalytic Carbon is in production, what will be the COST? And…What about aluminum?

  9. Advantages • Aluminum is the world's most abundant metal. It is extracted from Bauxite. Current reserves of Bauxite = enough to meet our needs for Aluminum for the next few centuries. • Recycling (optional) reduces cost, saves energy, the environment and resources. Ref: http://sam.davyson.com/as/physics/aluminium/siteus/abundance.html

  10. Advantage: Aluminum is cheap U.S. Dollars per metric ton

  11. Advantages Pure Aluminum NOT required. Less pure Aluminum = Lower cost

  12. Advantages Pure water NOT required. Salt water works well.

  13. Advantages 1. No electricity needed 2. No power input required to sustain hydrogen production 4. pH neutral 5. No electrolyte No Corrosion

  14. Advantages Automatic separation of hydrogen and liquid Gas vapor (bubbles) Stays in liquid. Can be recycled.

  15. Advantages • 1. Any temp • Any pressure • In liquid • We prefer 180F, in water, at 1 ATM Hydrogen bubbles Temp = 174F

  16. Advantages 100% of Emissions are Eliminated No Smokestack needed No Particulate Matter No Carbon Dioxide No Nitrous Oxides No Sulfur Dioxide No Mercury Technology Verified?

  17. Technology Verification • Flame test

  18. Technology Verification • Flame test • Hydrogen purity test The purity of our hydrogen was measured to be approximately 93%. The hydrogen production began with air in the container and in the tubes leading to the measurement instrumentation. The remaining 7% was believed to be water vapor/air; the amount of the water vapor depends on the temperature. 93% H2 Independent Test Lab

  19. Technology Verification • Flame test • Hydrogen purity test • Flow rate measurements Hydrogen at 1 LPM to 20 LPM Simple, easy, cheap

  20. Technology Verification • Flame test • Hydrogen purity test • Flow rate demonstration 4. Car test Full report online at www.PhillipsCompany.4T.com/CT.pdf 32% increase in gas mileage; first test run.

  21. Technology Verification • Flame test • Hydrogen purity test • Flow rate demonstration • Car test • World-wide • test program • @ 45 locations Evaluation of CC: 12 countries and 18 states in the USA

  22. EPA’s dream for the future ? • No emissions, no pollution Industry’s dream for the future ? • No emissions, no pollution • Lower cost fuel; No coal • Lower cost for EPA compliance Industry must solve problems

  23. Eliminate emissions No Energy Input Path forward

  24. Can this method be scaled up? This data updated 4/10/2012 No energy input needed after the water is warmed up to about 180F Path forward

  25. Strategic Alliance Invitation in 2012 • Phillips Company invite Development Partners Engineering chemistry Machine shop. Scale-up prototype. Commercialization Start tomorrow

  26. Tomorrow Demonstrate technology by appointment • Tomorrow, Sun City, AZ • Invitation and driving info: www.PhillipsCompany.4T.com/DEMO.pdf Catalytic Carbon Input Output
