David, It should be noted that Mills had NO claim for a gas-phase reactor prior to the Rossi announcement !
First off, the prior art is covered by the Thermacore experiments of the mid-nineties. Secondly, most of what you mention below was an alteration by BLP of a prior application, in which they hoped to maintain the early priority date. The USPTO allows for ongoing changes to ungranted applications, within reason. However, this amounts to a major alteration, with a transparent motive. Apparently, Mills thought he could sneak "gas phase" and "spillover" into his early plasma phase application, without anyone taking much notice. LOL. Sorry Randy, nice try but no-go. -----Original Message----- From: David ledin >From Dr. Randell mills patent A method of preparation of the catalytic material of the present invention of catalytic systems that hinge on the transfer of an electron from a cation to another capable of producing energy holes for shrinking hydrogen atoms includes the steps of: Dissolving ionic salts of the cations into a solvent. In a preferred embodiment, the ionic salts are dissolved in deionized demineralized water to concentration of 0.3 to 0.5 molar. Uniformly wetting a dissociation material with the dissolved salt solution. Draining the excess solution. Drying the wetted dissociation material in an oven preferably at a temperature of 220.degree. C. Pulverizing the dried catalytic material into a powder. Example of a Ionic Catalytic Material: Potassium Carbonate (K.sub.2 CO.sub.3) on Ni Powder To prepare the ionic catalytic material: potassium carbonate (K.sub.2 CO.sub.3) on Ni powder, a 1 liter solution of 0.5 M K.sub.2 CO.sub.3 in water is poured over 500 grams of -300 mesh Ni powder. The materials are stirred to remove air pockets around the grains of Ni. The excess solution can be drained off. The powder can be dried in an oven at 200.degree. C. If necessary the material can be ground to remove lumps. Hydrogen Spillover Catalysts In a preferred embodiment, the source of hydrogen atoms for the catalytic shrinkage reaction comprises a hydrogen spillover catalyst. A hydrogen spillover catalyst according to the present invention comprises: A hydrogen dissociation material or means which forms free hydrogen atoms or protons; A conduit material onto which free hydrogen atoms spill and which supports free, mobile hydrogen atoms and provides a path or conduit for the flow of hydrogen atoms or protons; A source of energy holes which catalyze the shrinkage reaction, and optionally A support material into which the former materials are embedded as a mixture, compound, or solution.
