  • Patent number: 9550673
    Abstract: A sodium peroxide production method and process layout design integrated with sodium extraction unit from sea water, salt lake, and sodium production by electrolysis, and integrated with exothermic reactor based power generation unit with a stepwise and batch wise method of producing sodium peroxide from 115° C. to 450° C. under oxygen and nitrogen gas mixture isolated from atmospheric conditions and humidity. A sodium peroxide production facility is designed to have modular process units which is installed as an independent facility or connected to another chemical plant or refinery. A sodium peroxide production facility having reduced dependency to pure sodium and offering flexible installation location including oil platforms and ships. A sodium peroxide production method from sea water, brine or sodium salt.

  • Patent number: 9470111
    Abstract: An air independent propulsion and power generation system based on thermal cycle generated from continuous exothermic reaction cycle in a controlled volume space. An exothermic reactor utility for generating power by producing steam or overheating another heat transfer fluid in gas state for supplying a power turbine system in order to produce electrical energy or mechanical power. A controlled exothermic reaction is occurred by injecting exothermic agents into the reaction chambers of the invention in a controlled sequence and computed timing which gives out heat and enables the transfer of the exothermic reaction output heat to the fluid of the thermal cycle. The exothermic reaction cycle does not need atmospheric connection or air or oxygen. The invention provides option to use multiple chemical types independently at the same time in any of its reaction chambers.

  • Patent number: 9193423
    Abstract: This invention relates to a design of a ship hull, and more particularly, to cargo ship or submarine configurations featuring flow channels on the hull surfaces, and multihull structure, and improved diving and surfacing properties, and reduced hydrodynamic resistance, and improved hull damage resistance, and further comprising underwater hub cargo loading and unloading, and relates to manned or unmanned or semi-autonomous sea vessels. A hull design consists of a curvative hull form transversally and symmetrical about its center line CL and design water line, and consists of ballast and storage tanks and cargo compartment within the hull portions and operable to adjust the draft and the depth of the vessel according to the loaded weight, and provides detachable installation options. The invention relates to a ship hull design with reduced block coefficient (Cb) values.
