  • METHODS FOR PRODUCING, STORING, AND USING ENERGY
    Publication number: 20230053095
    Abstract: A series of three chemical reactions, including a combination of endothermic and exothermic reactions, is used to generate, store, and supply on-demand heat from renewable energy sources for use in a variety of processes. Products from one reaction are used in the next reaction, and the series of three reactions is carried out once or more than once, optionally as a closed loop process.

  • BYPASS ELECTROLYSIS SYSTEM AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20190048479
    Abstract: A bypass electrolyzer system provides a system for separating oxygen and hydrogen from water, whereby electrodes are respectively disposed in first and second housings spaced apart by at least one membrane supported by at least one membrane holder. At least one bypass line connects the first and second housings so that during operation, hydrogen can pass to through the bypass line to the oxygen side and then back through the membrane to assist in equalizing pressure across the membrane during operation.

  • Natural Gas Reactors and Methods
    Publication number: 20180230010
    Abstract: A method of producing heat for industrial purposes such as power generation can use at least one, if not two exothermic reactions. First, methane may be produced from carbon dioxide and hydrogen in a reactor. This reaction produces heat. The methane may be burned, or oxidized (which is also an exothermic reaction) to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Oxygen and/or hydrogen may supplement the process as could be produced from the electrolysis of water. Carbon dioxide may be obtained from a variety of sources.
