The Waste

A Gross Inefficiency discovered

Since there is little expectation that fuel prices will ever go down much, or stay down for long, so conservation and prudent use of this resource is gathering more favor all of the time.

Even US President George Bush is realizing that the previous luxury of waste is no longer either hip or affordable and that efficiency efforts need our support, so he is now advocating conservation.

What were needed most were methods to convert the systems that we need to use daily and make them less damaging to our environment, A.S.A.P…

When we analyzed two common methods of fuel usage, some startling facts came to light, which opened the door for innovative methods and systems to be developed which will provide both, measurable fuel conservation, and a genuine reduction in air pollution.

Fuel Facts

- All engine and heating fuel used today is explosive

As well as,

-All contain heat energy

Two distinctive characteristics.

In both of the following examples, only one of these consumer values is used and consequently, the other is wasted.

Presently,

when a gallon of diesel fuel is used as an auto fuel in the average vehicle for its explosive ability, then it might drive it for 30 miles down the highway. However, the heat generated in the motor while doing this, is just dumped to the atmosphere by the cooling system and exhaust, apparently having no USABLE value.

Or;

when used for home heating fuel in a furnace that same gallon of diesel fuel could heat the average house in Northern climates for about six hours against an outside temperature of -30 C.

However, its' explosive aspect must be safely defeated in the common heating furnace , because of the damage it would cause, so the possible torque energy is wasted, having no USABLE value, in this case.

Extended for clarity

With using just (4) gallons of fuel, the car would have driven 120 miles and discarded an equivalent amount of heat to our atmosphere, which a home would use in 24 hours at -30 C weather.

Alternatively, in the home using the (4) gallons of fuel in a conventional furnace for heating will have discarded the equivalent amount of torque energy that drove the car for 120 miles by defeating its explosive energy.

Recovering the wasted energy

And also "Capturing the GHGs!"

In the car, it is a matter of capitalizing on the heat released in the motor during combustion and then converting that heat to cause a steam explosion which produces additional torque. In converting the motor to an internal combustion, steam engine like this, employs a system that scrubs the exhaust products, capturing its water-soluble, acid rain producing Green House Gases.
This change in applying both the motor fuels' "explosive" and "heat" energies increases its' torque efficiency by 25%, so now, four gallons of diesel fuel would drive the car for 150 miles! (120 miles + 25%)

In the home the four gallons of heating/motor fuel are used in a similarly converted engine which also results in realizing a larger amount of usable heat out of it, and also ‘scrubs’ the exhaust of its' water soluble pollution. However, capitalizing on the work that the engine does in a motor and generator arrangement, doubles fuel efficiency. This Home Energy System now also generates enough electricity to be able to heat an other house on electric power, all free.

Or; supply both heat and electricity for one house by using 50% less fuel.

This increases the homes’ heating fuel efficiency to over *200%! When compared to the present.

And just think! The common oil furnace with its huge production of particulate and acid rain emissions is replaced.

(* ‘rule of thumb calculation’ If 1 gallon of fuel is used in a furnace it will only heat one house, one hour and produce no electricity.

If 1 gallon of fuel used in a generator it produces about 10kw of electricity, enough to heat a house on power for 1 hour. If the {125,000+ btu.} exhaust heat from the generator is salvaged for use, it too will heat a house for an hour. That is where the 200% increased efficiency is arrived at)

The Silver Lining

As can be seen decisive changes and “Can do” action would result in combined effects of dramatic proportions in reducing our future fuel consumption. By changing how that fuel is used will cause a global reduction in GHG production, their containment and disposal.

Note, although this system was endorsed by Innovation Canada as having “…Great Environmental Value”, in a 1998 evaluation, all attempts at attaining any of the Canadian Governments aid have failed so far, even with them claiming their support of Kyoto on the world platform.

The solution is at hand and available, how soon or if it is used at all, depends on us in public demand!

Are we demanding enough? (I’m working hard to be)

Is it on your store shelf?

Would you like to see it there?

Then contact your legislative representatives and tell them they have lost enough time! We have a simple alternative to the current waste and pollution, and want to use it!

Together we’ll find that “We Can”! The time is now 'if' we are ready!
