  • Patent number: 11105004
    Abstract: An electrolysis heating system includes: A) a generator containing distilled water and connected to a direct electrical current power supply unit for creating a gas electrolytic dissociation; B) a duct conveying the gas from the generator to a first sparger containing distilled water and provided with a replenishment duct for maintaining the level of distilled water; C) a duct conveying the gas to a second sparger containing distilled water; D) a duct conveying the gas from the second sparger to a safety solenoid valve; E) ducts conveying the gas from a safety filter towards a final duct; F) tangential fans along the path of the ducts; G) check valves between the tangential fans and the safety filter; H) a final duct conveying the gas towards an appliance; I) a pressure sensor monitoring outflow pressure; J) a temperature sensor monitoring outflow temperature; K) a control unit with a microprocessor/display.

  • Patent number: 10907861
    Abstract: A geothermal well with communicating vessels, formed of an internal piping transferring an inflow down to a level of the depth of the well, and an external piping coaxial to the internal piping and with a diameter that permits ascent of the fluid upward from the distal end of the well, wherein a flange on the internal piping engages a collar connected to the external piping via spacers, wherein detection sensors generate information on oscillations of the pipings, wherein an automatic safety valve avoids overpressures, and a driven regulation valve generates information on fluid pressure, and wherein software monitors fluid circulation within the well and operates the inlet pump and the regulation valve to dampen the oscillations and prevent microseisms.

  • Publication number: 20190323736
    Abstract: A geothermal well with communicating vessels includes: an internal piping transferring an inflow up to the level of the depth of the well; an inlet pump regulating the pressure of the fluid; an external piping, coaxial to the internal piping, with diameter allowing ascent of the fluid, from the distal end of the well upwards up to heat user device; a flange on the internal piping engaging a collar connected to the external piping through spacers; detection sensors transferring to a software the information on the oscillations of the pipings; an automatic safety valve to avoid overpressures; a driven regulation valve transferring to a software the information on the fluid pressure; and a dedicated software monitoring fluid circulation within the well, adapted to operate on the inlet pump, on the regulation valve and on a plurality of actuators, damping the oscillations and preventing microseisms.
