This is part of a grant funded hydrogen demonstration project. We are producing carbon negative fuel by sequestering more carbon than the fuel produce when producing electricity. The output of the military surplus Clinton engine is used to charge batteries. The output of the 12.75V charging while using an inverter to power 1100 watts (1000 watt heater and a 100W lightbulb) showed the generator's "low tech" function using carbon negative fuels. More later in our written report. The carbon based fertilizer co-products help restore and maintain top soil fertility and carbon levels for thousands of years like "terra preta" soils created by the Ameri-Indian populations.

  • But here's the most important question. What's the price for a H syngas "gallon"?

  • $1.75/gal according to NREL made in this way.

  • i no that hydrogen and carbone make it burn harder but we are stuck with c02 still

  • The majority of the carbon from organic material used in this process is taken from the atmosphere and returned to the soil as a long lasting (100-1000 years) stable soil amendment/fertilizer. That makes the net carbon balance, carbon negative. Go to eprida website and see some of the earliest presentations for an explanation.

  • Between solar and biomass we should have all the hydrogen we could ever need for little to no cost, and at the same time have a productive solution to a large portion of garbage waste we produce. At the same time most of our internal combustion technology should be able to be retrofitted to burn hydrogen, its a win/win situation, except for those who profit from the production and sales of gasoline they will definitely lose, but if you ask me they deserve to reap what they sew.

  • So this is method for teleportation too? I saw man disappear and then go outside to light bulbs. Amazing! We have not many peanuts in my country to do this but this be very useful for robbing banks or getting into womens' shower room. Make me excite. Borat.

    All kidding aside, looks like it works. How are you gasifying the peanut shells? That's more what I would like to know. Running the engine is pretty easy from any syngas. It's the gasification I would like to know more about. Peace.

  • pretty cool. i wish we did something like that in science class

  • Great Idea!
