It isn't very pure, according to Mizuno. You have to take several extra
steps to eliminate impurities.

I would love to hear various opinions on the matter of available supplies of
Nickel, particularly pertaining to the economy of actually mining the
element. How realistic of a conservative prediction is the 100 year
prediction?

I do not know about nickel, but some types of ore are not mined because it
takes a lot of energy to mine and separate the ore. With
At this point, the amount and balance of the elements in the Rossi ash

IMHO, Rossi can’t tell how much nickel or hydrogen is used, consumed, or
transmuted in his reactor because of the large amount of iron (and other
undocumented elements) that are produced by erosion from

The internal heater (cathode) must be placed at a precise distance from the
surface of the catalytic powder to maintain the correct electrostatic and
heat gradient in the hydrogen gas (*vis*'*-à-vis' * H- , H2). This distance

Added thought follows:
You should consider the design of the Rossi reaction vessel analogous to a
vacuum tube, with the cathode (internal heater) placed at a precise distance
from the grid (reaction vessel wall).

Ah. I guess that makes sense. So there is gas between the heater and the
powder surface?
Hydrogen at 20 bar give or take.

It is this internal heater that forms the H- ions (like a cathode) needed to
make the Rossi reaction function so productively. This internal heater acts
as a spill over catalyst to create H- ions. Rossi

I agree that here Rossi probably means that.

Electrolysis can actually produce very high pressures. Much higher than those
required here.

Even I know that oxygen and hydrogen are generated separately at each
electrode, what I was wondering is if in a closed system (to build up
pressure) there isn't risk of oxygen spillover where it isn't needed.
