Climate change is affecting large areas of our planet, from the air quality of cities to the habitats of forest animals. The oceans are one of the most heavily impacted areas in the wake of climate change. Oceans provide people with a source of food and enjoyment, animals with a home, and the atmosphere with […]
Cold Fusion Gas Control
Earlier, it was indicated that deuterium and/or hydrogen should be provided to cathodes where cold fusion reactions can occur in small, high pressure gas puffs. The reason is that only about 1015 atoms reacting per second are needed for each kilowatt of power. This is unusual in that it is only a millionth of the […]
What Causes Climate Change?
The climate change crisis has been steadily worsening, and now, it has become a global emergency that demands immediate attention. Rising sea levels are putting coastal communities in serious danger, while warmer oceans have drastically altered the migration patterns of fish, affecting their entire ecosystem in the process. Extreme weather events are more common than […]
The Potential for Compact, Hot Fusion
The Department of Energy (previously known as the Atomic Energy Commission) initiated Project Sherwood in the mid-1950s to coordinate work on high temperature, magnetic confinement fusion (hot fusion) in universities, industry and the government. The objective was to show that nuclear fusion reactions could be made to occur in a high temperature gas plasma. Heat […]
Is Energy From Nuclear Power Plants Renewable?
Nuclear energy is the source of much debate due to recent and infamous safety failures at nuclear power plants. There’s another debate surrounding the use of nuclear energy, however: is it a form of renewable energy, or not? While nuclear energy is often considered a clean form of energy, its status as a renewable resource […]
Design of Helium Separator
In order to produce kilowatts of energy, cold fusion generators must be able to sustain more than 1016 nuclear reactions per second. Reactant product helium gas molecules can be anticipated to be produced at approximately this rate, and will need to be removed from the system so that additional hydrogen and/or deuterium gas can be […]
