Terry, There is an improved version from another company:
http://www.solutia.com/en/SolarEnergy.aspx quote: "Therminol(r), the world leader in high-temperature synthetic heat transfer fluids, can be used in numerous applications including renewable energy technologies such as solar and biodiesel, manufacturing processes, waste heat transfer, pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals and oil and gas processing." It all depends on the design goals and the temperature range of the E-Cat, since you want a low pressure system, at the highest possible temperature. Glycol is cheaper, but lower performance, and if it is satisfactory - that means that they have chosen a lower range of operating temperatures - below 200C. It also means that they have probably given up (at least at this early stage of development) on the possibility of efficient conversion of the heat to electricity. That would be expected at the initial stages - since the engineering required to convert heat efficiently is more demanding. They will probably license that task out to companies that are specialists. Jones -----Original Message----- From: Terry Blanton I mentioned Thermisol on their forum and got this response from someone tagged as "farshooter": therminol (monsanto) is not a good choice. I have used fot 35+ years, it is a fire hazard, polution hazard and, and has a max useful temp of just over 600 DegF. You needto design your faciliy to be explosion proof.
