  • Patent number: 7581403
    Abstract: Energy is stored in the compression of a metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas contained in a compressed metallic base material subjected to a magnetic field in a high pressure cell. Heat energy is introduced to increase the energy of the compressed metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas. The increase in energy causes the magnetic field to increase so that the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas is further compressed. Absorption of heat results in a decrease in the temperature. Energy can be withdrawn from The system by allowing the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas to expand against the compressing magnetic field. To prevent development of fissures, the metallic base material is precompressed to provide an allowance for the volume of a metastable Fermi electron gas bubble to be created later.

  • Publication number: 20080053833
    Abstract: A method and system of energy storage in which energy is stored in the compression of a metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas contained in a compressed metallic base material such as lithium in a high pressure cell which is subjected to a magnetic field to further compress the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas. In operation, heat energy is introduced to increase the energy of the compressed metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas which causes the magnetic field associated therewith to increase to further compress the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas, which causes the heat to be absorbed and results in a decrease in the temperature thereof. Energy can be withdrawn from the system by allowing the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas to expand against the compressing magnetic field. The lithium is precompressed prior to cryogenic cooling thereof.

  • Patent number: 5113661
    Abstract: A method and system of energy storage in which energy is stored in the compression of a metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas contained in a compressed metallic material such as hydrogen and/or metallic lithium in a diamond anvil high pressure cell which is subjected to a magnetic field by further compressing the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas. In operation, heat energy is introduced to increase the energy of the compressed metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas which causes the magnetic field associated therewith to increase to further compress the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas, which causes the heat to be absorbed and results in a decrease in the temperature thereof. Energy can be withdrawn from the system by allowing the metastable degenerate Fermi electron gas to expand against the compressing magnetic field.

  • Patent number: 4192741
    Abstract: The process described herein calls for reaction of the effluent as it flows through the plant. The use of high and low pressure venturies (Barnoulli's equation) are included in this design.The purpose of this high pressure venturi (wider reaction pipe) is to create a high pressure and temperature for the bacteria to live in. It also serves to slow the effluent down for a longer detention time and longer period of organic or inorganic reaction. This results, in the case of the sludge, that the flow speed is equal to the rate at which the bacteria consume their way toward the incoming sludge flow. This above mentioned flow produces points of maximum organic or inorganic reaction: (i.e. bacterial or combustions of various natures) at constant designated points in the venturi. This design has the capacity to produce a high quality natural gas.
