Abstract: Provided is an electrically active breathing mask. The mask contains conductive layers separated by insulating layers, the conductive layers being alternatingly positively or negatively charged. Air passing through one insulating layer is directed across the surface of a next charged layer, before flowing through a next insulating layer, and so on. Particles including virus in water vapor or sputum are evaporated as they contact alternately charged layers.

Abstract: An autonomous, modular energy generation, storage and transmission apparatus, system, and method is provided. An apparatus is tube shaped and includes solar and thermionic energy conversion layers, and a battery module. A system of modular apparatuses may be connected together to form a transmission network. Such devices are particularly suited for outdoor application on highway jersey walls, and for indoor application on office cubicle walls. A method of charging battery modules in the apparatus is provided, along with a method of distributing the same in commerce.
