advanced plasma industries (api) is an innovative technology research & development company based in maryland, u.s.a. our expertise centers on plasma research and extends to numerous additional areas.<\/p>\n
api envisions numerous areas of opportunity leveraging our expertise. we propose a new paradigm for research that holds promise to fundamentally energize collaboration and economic development for api and the other locales where we anticipate operations. it is based on a foundation of plasma r&d and is centered on hydrogen, clean coal, lithium, and rare earth element production.<\/p>\n
this technology can use solar\/wind energy to power the hydrogen production for combustion engines, fuel cells and electric power plants. it is the first technology that is 100% efficient and creates no pollution whatsoever.<\/p>\n
plasma-based hydrogen generation is a proprietary plasma-based system to be developed which will generate hydrogen from sea water using less energy than electrolysis with no catalyst, exotic metals and not create any harmful waste materials.<\/p>\n
the process and science involved is still too new to have received a patent, though a patent application is in train, hence the details provided by the api are general in nature, so as not to jeopardize api’s intellectual property.<\/p>\n
general information about the process is as follows:<\/p>\n
\u2022 the process has been named “ecp-amf” advanced plasma industries (api) is an innovative technology research & development company based in maryland, u.s.a. our expertise centers on plasma research and extends to numerous additional areas. api envisions numerous areas of opportunity leveraging our expertise. we propose a new paradigm for research that holds promise to fundamentally energize collaboration and economic development for…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8838,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4905,4894,4898,4903,4910,4904],"tags":[2177,59,58,678,532,2178,1280,2179,10,576],"storyfest_categories":[],"class_list":["post-13819","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adaptation","category-efficiency","category-engineering","category-natural-gas","category-renewable-energy","category-water","tag-advanced-plasma-industries","tag-coal","tag-hydrogen","tag-maryland","tag-natural-gas","tag-plasma","tag-renewable","tag-sea-water","tag-solar-energy","tag-wind"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
\n\u2022 the technology is scalable from micro to macro size, so could be sized to suit a pilot project.
\n\u2022 it will not require a large energy input to trigger the process.
\n\u2022 the source seawater\/brine\/fresh water will not need to be supplied to the process at an elevated temperature nor in a vapor state unlike present technologies.
\n\u2022 the process will operate at temperatures around 6k\u00b0c but will be designed to handle much higher temperatures.
\n\u2022 with appropriate hydrogen storage and trained operators the system could be operated safely in a built-up area.
\n\u2022 initial calculations indicate that \u224810kwhr of energy input to the system would be required to manufacture 1kg of hydrogen. [note that the theoretical minimum demand for electrolysis is \u224838kwhrs\/kg h2 but the actual demand from commercial electrolysers is \u224854kwh to 80kwh, depending on their size and efficiency]\n\u2022 if the system were manufacturing \u22485kg hydrogen per hour, the instantaneous power demand might be \u224840kw.
\n\u2022 unique plasma physics path never not taken by any company or university in the world.
\n\u2022 the technology will also produce hydrogen and oxygen cheaply, quickly, and in high volumes from sea water, fresh water or brine.
\n\u2022 the energy content of hydrogen is nearly three times that of gasoline.
\n\u2022 energy content of 1 kg hydrogen 141.9 mj (hhv) = 39.4 kwh 20kwh electrical input to produce 100 kwh hydrogen output an hour 2.67 kg hydrogen produced an hour 23, 402 kg’s a year = 922 mwh’s a year.
\n\u2022 this portable technology can use solar \/ wind energy to power the hydrogen production for combustion engines, fuel cells and electric power plants.
\n\u2022 it is the first technology that is 100% efficient and creates no pollution or toxic waste whatsoever. hundreds to thousands of gallons of fresh drinkable clean water every hour.
\n\u2022 we already have interest from new zealand, taiwan, japan, puerto rico, europe and others.
\n\u2022 2 universities have signed on to do collaboration research with api inc.
