  • Publication number: 20180297921
    Abstract: Utilizing the common knowledge formula for creation of methanol CO2+3H2?CH3OH+H2O; for each mole of carbon dioxide, three moles of hydrogen are needed to produce one equivalent unit of methanol. Therefore, it is possible to produce over one-half gallon of methanol from one kilogram of carbon dioxide. Combining the two gases and producing methanol can be accomplished under high pressure (about 3250 psi) and high temperature (750-degree Fahrenheit heat) without the presence of a catalyst. Throughout this process, auto-ignition for methanol is 867-degree Fahrenheit (or 464° C.) and auto-ignition for hydrogen is 932-degree Fahrenheit (or 500° C.). After mixing two gases in the mixing chamber, the result is methanol and water. The first step in this stage is to cool the substance by way of cooling tower and pressure lowering tank. Next is a separation process to separate methanol and water. By cooling the substance\mixture about 28.

    Abstract: Long-term and high-density energy sources are described that utilize radioisotope batteries that provide a tritium (3H)-based direct energy conversion system. The beta radiation source is a nitroxide compound with a synthetic yield near 100%. The nitroxide compound can be molded into flexible films to cover multiple structures, and has a specific activity and gravimetric density (wt % 3H) comparable to that of tritiated hydrides. A carrier system based on such tritiated nitroxides can be scaled up without significant beta self-absorption, permitting the energy source to have higher specific volume power densities than current radioisotope batteries. Such a carrier can be applied directly to a semiconductor array (such as an integrated circuit) in order to provide electrical power or, alternatively, be prepared with a phosphor and applied to a photovoltaic cell.
