  • Patent number: 11952273
    Abstract: We disclose herein a viable, cost efficient method for the instantaneous production of hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas production is increased by utilizing solar and lunar energy. The hydrogen gas is generated spontaneously by the reaction of sodium hydroxide and aluminum as corrosion occurs, forming a layer of aluminum oxide upon the aluminum. This aluminum oxide layer prevents further reaction of sodium hydroxide and aluminum, and thus no more hydrogen gas is produced. Production of aluminum oxide can be bypassed by adding acetic acid or sodium acetate to the reaction. In this reaction the products are aluminum hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Thus, we disclose herein a method that prevents of the formation of aluminum oxide by the use of sodium acetate or acetic acid, the use of iron as a catalyst, and the enhancement of the reaction using natural light.

  • Patent number: 8585812
    Abstract: A novel method for the removal and prevention of rust from corroded iron surfaces is disclosed. This is done by inducing reducing conditions at the interphase between the rusted surface and the attached aluminum surface. An iron coating provided by the reducing conditions surrounds the clean iron and creates a barrier against future rust. Our technology is an oxygen displacement technology which essentially removes rust from iron and iron based tools and structures. It is cost effective, non-invasive, environmentally friendly and can be mass produced.

  • Publication number: 20040166542
    Abstract: Currently, serum is used more often than urine to detect prostate specific antigen (PSA). The need for a non-invasive test yielding similar results led us to develop a urine test that uses solar irradiated water as a reactant species. To develop this technology, seven reagents plus one control were produced by exposure of water for 40 days in sunlight to the colors of the visible spectrum through colored cellophane, control being an unwrapped bottle of sterile water. Serum PSA and the urine was tested using the above reagents. A positive urine test was observed with yellow-filtered irradiated water which absorbed at 454 nm. Positive results for the urine test had PSA levels of 0.21-4.0 ng/ml. Thus, this invention describes a non-invasive urine test mainly positive with PSA 0.21-4.0 ng/ml.
