Hello Peter,
I strongly disagree, although I realize that this detail was circulated as the reason - in an earlier demo but it did not make sense then and does not now. Steam as a hydrogen source is fully ionized and extremely conductive at a temperature where silver is vaporized – so silver would be superfluous as a “conductor” – and is only needed as catalyst. Mills states in a recent video that the only thing needed for self-sustain is silver vapor and hydrogen source. The arc itself is not needed. Plus, Mills goes into great detail in recent patent revision, with detailed explanation about silver in a role as catalyst, since it is not obvious exactly how it is catalytic. The logic is convoluted and he would not waste time in this long patent revision (already too wordy) if silver were not his main catalyst. Plus – think about it - If water alone was catalytic every spark ignited ICE on the road would be a Mills reactor since steam is always present before and after ignition in every auto engine.

It is only the silver that makes the water(vapour) conductive. It is the HOH molecule that is the catalyst. Peter From: Jones Beene <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Friday, November 04, 2016 4:54 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Vo]:A "eutectic mist" for maximum catalytic surface area The recent revelation from Mills/ BrLP … that after 25 years and $100 million spent, the most effective catalyst found thus far is silver… and he uses it in the form of vapor by passing an electric arc… this scenario raises the question of an alternative method which could be implemented at lower operating parameters. The boiling point of silver is almost 4000F (2190 C) which is out of the question for most experimenters. An alternative to thermal vaporization would be a mist or fog – possibly created from the liquid state by ultrasonics – similar to the foggers are used with water. In the case of silver, the melting point is high as a pure metal; however, silver is notorious for forming eutectics with markedly lower m.p. The most interesting eutectic found so far for LENR would be lithium-silver; since lithium may catalytic in a different way as well as active for a fusion reaction. Thus a lithium-silver eutectic which melts at less than 300 C could be irradiated with ultrasound to produce a catalytic fog or mist in a near vacuum chamber which is much easier to pull off on a small scale than the massive arc required to vaporize silver. Ionization would be initiated using a radioactive isotope and become self-sustained at a higher level by EUV emission. _____ Deze email is gecontroleerd door CAIWAY Internet Virusvrij.
