  • Publication number: 20240059586
    Abstract: Offshore ocean desalination apparatus for 1.5 million GPM/D seawater into drinking water by Reverse Osmosis using renewable energy stored energy of compressed air. Multiple desalination units were installed on the construction tower 50 feet above seawater level, with the tower moored to the ocean floor up to 100 meters deep and equipped with air pressurized tank, and two seawater supply tanks, providing 1000 psig air to the desalination unit's moving actuator, with seawater in container pressurized by said moving actuator to push drinking water through 2 micron RO membrane located in a filter plate. The filter plates with hundreds of filter elements, each of 2-inch diameter, are secured to six vertical walls of the seawater container, to the container bottom, and to the top moving actuator lower side. Seawater a pumped from 20 feet below seawater level using an Archimedes screw-type pump powered by a supersonic air turbine.

  • Publication number: 20230193826
    Abstract: An electronically speed controlled pulsed supersonic turbine engine powering automotive, drone and electric power generation, energised by breathable, clean renewable energy airflow from 2700 psi integral air-tank energising the engine continuously for 3 hours, replacing the toxic fossil gasoline-diesel energised internal combustion engine with carbon emissions that affects climate change. The turbine blades are turning by pulsed impulse of supersonic airflow from sequentially energised eight manifolds of de Laval convergence-divergence-CD with sonic choking nozzle and supersonic divergence airflow impulsing turbine blades turning them within divergence shroud to atmospheric pressure with turbine nose with engine output shaft supported with bearings supported by the air-tank.

  • Patent number: 11608605
    Abstract: Hydro Turbine unit producing 880 MW-h energy daily in offshore oceans creating average high-pressure compressed air transferable energy stored in air tanks and using generators to transform into local electrical energy. The harvesting of renewable offshore water energy of ocean wave, tidal and stream energy, converting it to accumulated water head potential energy in a large isolated water trapping pool structurally supported laterally by six tall towers extended to ocean maximum depth of 100 meter deep with arrow shape plungers pneumatic reciprocating hammering into seabed in slanted angle relative to seabed. The energized ocean water enters the trap pool through thousands of one-way check valves in the trap pool floor and surrounding walls. Large flow openings into 6 Hydro turbine manifolds direct swirling water through radial guiding vanes and conical converging top vertically downward through 8 turbine blades applying torque to turbine outlet shaft and flowing down to ocean level.

  • Patent number: 10226031
    Abstract: Large capacity fish and seafood growing aquaculture comprises multiple floating at sea concentric transparent torus tubes with central barge equipped with air compressor, electronic controller and anchored to seabed. Floating level above sea level of aquaculture torus tube is controlled by floating level sensor input triggering compressor to inflatable helical balloon wrapped around aquaculture tube and commanded by electronic controller. Water level in each tube is controlled by air pressure actuated valves. Each tube consists of four torus tube segments which are constructed of strong molded structural helical pipe wrapped into torus shape with molded resilient helical strip wall and with sealed helical inflatable balloon to control tube buoyancy level with connection to four vertical pipes for external rapid insertion and removing fish and food into and from the tubes. Cabled means connected to seabed.

  • Patent number: 6141945
    Abstract: This present invention relates to a multi-unit, automatic machine for compaction, packaging, and disposal of plural types of material such as newspaper, plastic containers, glass bottles, aluminum cans, or other household and commercial waste. Each type of material is automatically processed in a separate unit and than separately packaged and sealed in a special bar coded bag, which is then disposed of the machine.The automatic recycling machine is constructed as an appliance and includes housing with inlet for each material type where material is inserted to a specific unit. The material is crushed and compacted as a movable container is moved upwards towards a static container thus reducing the volume of the material between them. The actuation system consists of double scissors member mechanism and pneumatic actuator connected in between members of the mechanism, thus amplifying the travel of the actuator.
