Keep an open mind, but a closed wallet.
Their gas phase system has the potential to conform to Nanoplasmonic principles. However, I do not yet detect a good chance for plasma condensation of the catalyst to nanoparticles. But at least they say that they use a catalyst. The reactor architecture is very promising as a large scale megawatt level LENR system. This type of large reactor is ideal for product placement as an unmet upcoming LENR energy marketplace need. In a large scale LENR reactor, fluid bed particle suspension is a very good idea to maximize particle surface exposure and contact points with other particles. They should also think about removing heat from the system by running the hydrogen flow through a heat exchanger (hydrogen to lithium) I like lithium coolant for this type of system. * * * * * * * * * * * * On Fri, Sep 13, 2013 at 2:57 PM, Edmund Storms <[email protected]>wrote: > Does anyone else see that the explanation given by Godes is pure word > salad having no relationship to reality.
