Comment on Schematic of How to Build a Magnetic Motor by Harvey1

Harvey1 — Mon, 20 May 2013 17:02:33 +0000

Kimseymd1: Please stop changing the subject. I call it the “Magical
Magnetic Motor” in order to limit the conversation to a mythical motor
that needs no external power to operate, using only permanent magnets. Please
read my definition of the Magical Magnetic Motor below. You seem to quote a
mixture of real knowledge (showing off, are we?) interspersed with urban
legends. Please stay on subject – Focus — A Magnetic Motor that can operate
outside the control of the inventor. I challenge anyone to address that single
point, and not change the subject by attacking me, talking about the
government, the big oil companies, 911, Tesla, Lutec etc.
bruce45: The first thing a serious magical magnetic motor scammer does is
get a patent and claim or imply that the patent is proof that it works.
The patent office does not require, nor conduct any testing of inventions. If
you fill out the paper work correctly and send money, you get a patent. People
who apply for patents know this so why would anyone brag about their invention
having a patent just to add credibility? They know how easy it was to get a
patent therefore they must be a scammer. Howard Johnson’s motor has been proven a fake
and a scam many times while no one can produce a working model. Read this next
sentence carefully and think about it as it eliminates any magical magnetic
motor claim. Focus — A Magnetic Motor that can operate outside the control of
the inventor. I challenge anyone to address that single point, and not change
the subject by attacking me, talking about the government, the big oil
companies, 911, Tesla, Lutec etc.

Comment on How To Heat Up Your Room Using Just a Candle: Kandle Heeter! by TiberiusAlexander

TiberiusAlexander — Mon, 20 May 2013 13:47:12 +0000

i tried this out, built it exactly like in the instructions, first tied with a 50W Infra red Heating bulb, the results were very poor, then changed the bulb to 150W IR heating bulb, the results were a bit better but not enough to heat up a 3x3m bedroom. then again i upgraded the bulb to a 250W IR heating bulb, the results were better, i could feel the outer pot warming up but not enough to warm up a room. In my opinion i’d say its not worth it, this is just a waste of time.

Comment on Climate Change is Man-Made, Scientists Unanimously Agree by Joe Matthis

Joe Matthis — Mon, 20 May 2013 13:27:04 +0000

Here is the problem with the above article or the study it references, If one picks out 100 studies that say humans are the cause of climate change then you could say 100% agree with the subject. Just because there are more people trying to prove it’s man made does not mean its real it just means they have a large following. Everything contributes to green house gas production so everything causes climate change. It’s not that it isn’t true its just that its a scam to influence policy changes. Why are there not more scientist writing papers saying climate change is natural? Well it’s kinda a no brainer the climate has been changing constantly since the beginning. Now here is the topping on the cake and before you can say man has a dog in the fight….. How much carbon is sequestered during normal human activity? How much carbon is produced during normal activity and what is the net difference? How much has the natural process of carbon sequestering been augmented by human activity. So before you can claim anything other than we are adding to the carbon cycle you must establish the factors in the equation otherwise your just blowing smoke. I’ve done some of the math and looked up some of the figures. The claims are just that claims. Real science does not have an agenda it is based upon facts. Do the study and show me the facts. Otherwise its just hype and propaganda they are trying to sell an idea not prove it. I’ve run into this time and time again over the years. Some believe if you tell a lie enough times that somehow it will be the truth.

Comment on Climate Change Ruining the Earth’s Food Supply by Al Black

Al Black — Mon, 20 May 2013 03:38:05 +0000

No-one is denying that the world has warmed by 0.6 degrees
in the last Century, although it is fair to point out that without Climate
Scientists measuring such a small change, no-one would have noticed.
It is also reasonable to ask, if CO2 is driving climate
change, why the warming stalled in 1998 and the temperature has not increased
for the last 15 years, in spite of record increases in CO2 output over the same
period. I know the 2001-2010 decade was warmer than the previous 1991-2000
decade, but that does not negate the fact that warming has halted; it just
hasn’t fallen to pre-warming levels. The fact that carbon dioxide levels in the
air has now passed 400 parts per million, just makes the lack of correlation
between CO2 concentration and temperature all the more obvious.
There is no evidence that extreme weather events are on the
rise, either – studies show Hurricanes, tornadoes and droughts have actually
dropped in frequency since 1950, it is just that there are more people living
in harm’s way now.
Warming would in theory result in higher evaporation rates,
leading to more cloud formation and therefore more rain, so a warmer world
would be a wetter world, and would have longer growing seasons in most parts of
the world. It is hard to see why this should necessarily lead to droughts and
famines. Wars, such as in Darfur, are caused by tribal and religious hatred,
not by global warming, but War does cause famine, and the breakdown of
infrastructure does result in countries being far less able to cope with
droughts and crop failures.
In the same way, deaths due to heat waves would be more than
made up by fewer deaths due to freezing in milder winters in a warming world.
Hysteria about an acknowledged, but so far insignificant warming
does not seem to be justified by the facts. The fact that 97% of climate
scientists agree that human action is warming the planet just says they agree
that the 0.6 degree warming is probably accurate, and probably caused by the
combustion of fossil fuels. So far so good, but it does NOT mean 97% of
scientists believe that the World is on the cusp of a so-called “Tipping
Point” which will see rapid disastrous warming, with doomsday outcomes for
the environment and human civilisation, and rampant warfare between climate
refugees and western economies.
Most indicators are that the warming so far has been
beneficial to the ecosystem, with accelerated plant growth due to warmer,
longer growing seasons and the beneficial effect of CO2 as a plant food.
The case for a draconian World Government to stifle and dismantle
our industrial civilisation in the name of Carbon reduction has NOT yet been
made, and it seems doubtful it ever will. No-one should ever believe anything
Al Gore or this site says on any topic, and Global Warming is no exception.

Pure fear mongering!
Not one IPCC warning says it “WILL” be a crisis and not one IPCC warning isn’t drowning in “maybes”. Help my planet could be on fire maybe?
If the scientists can’t call their own crisis as real a crisis as they like to say comet hits are, it’s not a crisis and 28 more years of “maybe” a crisis from the scientists is unsustainable and proves it “won’t” be a real crisis. Deny that!
All science has to do is say it WILL happen instead of “could” happen and this costly debate will end.

Did you notice the picture with this article? Just exactly what crop did you expect to go in the desert? Notice the big sand dune in the background. Look you could blame climate change for everything from over ripe fruit to acne on your face. Give it a break the climate has always been in flux and will always be changing. However now for some magical reason we believe we are at the center of the universe all over again. We control the weather, continental drift, ocean levels, ice melt and the flow of water…..all pure poppy cock. If you removed all the people from the earth in an instant you would not stop climate change. If you could somehow stop all carbon emissions in an instant you could not stop climate change. People have found ways to exist in just about every climate on this planet from the far north to the driest places on the globe. So why do we expect to grow the same crops in the same place year after year it defies logic. Whole groups of people in the past have had to migrate away from areas because the resources have changed due to climate change. Why in the world would you think just because you noticed something happening (which has been happening since the earth was formed) that all of the sudden you could control it. Climate change and global warming are real, its nature. The attempt to use it for control of people through fear is the largest scam in the history of mankind to date. I don’t know if the species will survive its arrogance.

Comment on New “Connected Universe” Theory Could Pave the Way to Unlimited Energy Resource by Joe Matthis

Joe Matthis — Fri, 17 May 2013 15:53:08 +0000

Been thinking… since every particle in this universe is being influenced by where it is (position in space) by everything around it then each particle holds and transmits this state in the form of what I would call a reality wave. Think about the universe as more solid or densely packed space. When one particle vibrates this information is transmitted to the next particle through proximity. Now as the signal travels it is changed or corrupted by the state of the next particle and the information is added to. Seems that if you could do the math and unlock the rate of change in the information you could eliminate the over burden and peer into any point in the universe. Kinda like ripples in a pond being traced back to the source. This would explain why we do not hear older races in the universe, they are using something quite different to communicate also this would eliminate the need to travel to far away places in the universe. You simply tune your receiver to a particle in a far away planet or galaxy and you can see everything going on there. The information is there, its always been there we’re just not listening yet. Of course it could all just be science fiction but perhaps time will tell.

Comment on Climate Change Affects Insurance Companies, Carbon Tax Taken Seriously by Jfreed27

Jfreed27 — Fri, 17 May 2013 11:33:09 +0000

Federal crop insurance, federal flood insurance, and FEMA are equal to disaster taxes already imposed upon Americans. Rather we should impose a tax on fossil fuels, and then refund that tax to Americans. That would bend the economy away from the disaster taxes. Also, Americans pay as much as $.18/kwh for adverse health costs due to coal pollution, from a Harvard Med SChool study. We don’t see these costs, but they are there.
As Dylan once wrote, “the executioners face is always well hidden”.

*Magical Magnetic Motor – a mythical motor that needs no external power to operate, using only permanent magnets. Only proof is phoney videos, not real motors that anyone can operate without the inventor around. Can be used to get the foolish to part with their money for plans.

Comment on CAT Scans Determine Safety of Undersea CO2 Storage by Joe Matthis

Joe Matthis — Wed, 15 May 2013 13:50:23 +0000

The best way to store carbon emissions is in the form of books, coffee tables, building supplies and trees. When your done with these items you just need to bury them……oh that’s right were doing that in land fills. Go back to sleep these are not the droids your looking for. Under sea containment of CO2 is a train wreck waiting to happen. Lets not forget we live on an active planet the crust moves and we cant stop it or predict it. It’s a nice theory but when it comes right down to it….it’s just plain stupid. From the article above it indicates that the levels were higher long before the burning of fossil fuels….ever wonder why? Now continue along that line of thought and tell me how the earth reacted to this high level of CO2? There was a massive explosion of plant growth (plants absorb CO2) and the carbon was absorbed, later this plant matter was covered over and formed the coal and oil and natural gas deposits that we currently run our world on. However I guess you can blame global warming on just about anything. Here’s a good one that’s logically provable; the introduction of the computer age along with the internet has caused climate change or global warming due to the fact we no longer keep records ON PAPER. Digital media is killing the earth! Now doesn’t that sound nuts, of course it does. However it can be proven without a doubt, less paper in storage means less carbon sequestered. So you want to sequester some carbon just build a log home and plant some trees but know this….you can not stop or control climate change. Man kind did not cause the high levels in the past and what net amount we are adding right now is a thimble full of the ocean. Things are changing… it’s going to happen….it’s always been happening.

Comment on Schematic of How to Build a Magnetic Motor by Harvey1

Harvey1 — Mon, 13 May 2013 17:34:41 +0000

kimseymd1Harvey1The purpose of my post is to debunk the idea of a Magical Magnetic Motor. That is, a motor that has no source of external power, and runs from the (non existent) power stored in permanent magnets. Advances made to electric motors in the past few years are truly amazing, but are totally outside the scope of my post. Although I think we agree on the Magical Magnetic Motor, please try to stick to my stated focus: — A Magnetic Motor that has no source of external power, and runs from the (non existent) power stored in permanent magnets and that can operate outside the control of the
inventor. I challenge anyone to address that single point, and not change the
subject by attacking me, talking about the government, the big oil companies,
911, Tesla, Lutec etc.
Perhaps if we can debunk the myth of the magical magnetic motor, people can concentrate on continuing to improve real technology.

Harvey1A magical magnetic motor? Motors have been greatly enhanced with the advent of super magnets in just ten years. Smaller and more powerful to say the least. In my mind over unity is simply a better way of using electricity to create a better generator. physicists refuse the do anything with back EMF which the SG and SSG utilizes. I don’t believe in perpetual motion or perpetual motors and even a permanent magnet motor generator wouldn’t be perpetual. I do believe there are tons of ways to create a better motor or generator and a combination motor generator utilizing the new super magnets is a huge step in that direction and will be found soon if the conglomerates don’t destroy the opportunity for the populace. When I first got into these forums there was a product claiming over unity ( low current in with high current out)and selling their machine. It has since been taken off the market with a sell out to a conglomerate or is being over run with orders. I don’t know! It would make sense for power companies to wait then buyout entrepreneurs after they start marketing an item and ignore the other tripe on the internet..
Bedini’s SSG at a convention of scientists and physicists (with hands on) with a ten foot diameter wheel with magnets has been a huge positive for me. Using one battery to charge ten others of the same kind is a dramatic increase in efficiency over current technology. Why not use the term over unity over perpetual motion? Re-vitalizing a dead battery headed for the junk yard is a huge increase in efficiency to me also. Why doesn’t every AutoZone or every auto shop have one of these? Unless the battery case is cracked every battery could be reused. The charge of a re-vitalize instead of a new battery.
Without a generous payment, listing an amount, I don’t see anyone jumping on that. A hundred dollars could be a generous amount but the cost of buying parts, experimenting and finding something worthwhile could be thousands to millions of dollars that conglomerates are looking to pay for and destroy or archive. I have probably spent a thousand dollars in just a few months that I’ve been looking into this and I have 33 years in rebuilding computers from the first mainframes to the laptops. I retired and now its a hobby.
Without visions there would never have been automobiles. motors, generators, airplanes, explosives or even kites to fly. I encourage everyone to tryout their visions which may fail or fizzle but one out of a million or so may create a better way to do something. It happens all the time.
There is a new material called Graphene which is graphite, like in a pencil, created at the molecular level. It is a super strong material for dozens of applications all 100% more efficient in those areas: Military armor( an elephant standing on a pointed pencil to break through it) solar cells, electronics-computer s100 times faster than silicon based computers, applying it to hospital walls because it is anti-bacterial, and a myriad of other applications.
Someone had a vision:)

You say “you haven’t done enough research or understand electronics enough to realize these models actually work.” yet like so many, you believe that the Bedini SSG is an over-unity
device and it is not. John Bedini has emphasized this very point on
many occasions. Your only basis in saying what you did about me is that it disagrees with your hope that the magical magnetic motor (a magnetic motor that runs on permanent magnets with no outside power source) is real. Don’t get me wrong, I really appreciate your having the courage to answer my post. I will directly address your point of “why should anyone send you a working motor”. The answer is in my post where I said I would pay generously for one. I really mean that. Secondly, you said “…you are probably quite able to build one yourself”. The whole point of my post is that the magical magnetic motor is only a delusion and does not exist. No one can build a delusion. How could you miss that? It’s so obvious in the post. We are all capable of self delusion to the point that we cannot see the obvious. I believe that is what is happening in regards to a motor that needs no external power to operate. As proof of that, I have supplied an incentive for anyone to send me a motor in return for a generous reward. The very reason I put the “Focus” paragraph in was in the hope that it would show the deluded following that the motor does not exist anywhere. Nothing short of a real working model would prove it’s not a delusion. Stay focused on that and you will see the truth of what I am saying.
Please do not take what I am saying personally. I am trying to bring forth a truth here. Stay focused!

@KC Expect China’s huge demand for energy of all kinds to make even selling American Coal, Oil and Gas to them a means to balance our budget, and pay down our enormous foreign debt . This will force the consumer cost of energy products to the plebs to move upwards in exponential fashion at home – making any system for conserving these expensive commodities very necessary. Outside of the Chinese Thorium LFTR reactor miracle – proposed to “Alter Global Energy Maps Forever”, America now enters a period of energy peril – where Asians with U.S. Dollar surpluses are biding the price of Oil, Gas, Coal, ever upward, as the same time as the Feds are printing the Purchasing Price Package of that same dollar ever downward. Today your nickles would be worth about three cents, and in five years, they would go the way of the penny!

You would at the very least have a different number of magnets on one disc but that isn’t working yet either. Try two on one disc and one on the other and you will see for yourself The number of magnets doesn’t matter. If you can do it width three magnets you can do it with thousands. Good luck!

First of all everyone is trying to find a motor generator that is efficient enough to power their house and or automobile. People use perpetual motors in place of over unity motors or magnet motors which are three different things.and that is a misnomer. Three entirely different entities. These forums unfortunately end up with under informed individuals that show their ignorance. Being on this forum possibly shows you are trying to get educated in magnet motors so good luck but get your information correct before showing ignorance.

“A 1% reduction in world-wide meat intake has the same benefit as a three trillion-dollar investment in solar energy.” ~ Chris Mentzel, CEO of Clean Energy
“As environmental science has advanced, it has become apparent that the human appetite for animal flesh is a driving force behind virtually every major category of environmental damage now threatening the human future: deforestation, erosion, fresh water scarcity, air and water pollution, climate change, biodiversity loss, social injustice, the destabilization of communities, and the spread of disease.” ~ Worldwatch Institute, “Is Meat Sustainable?”
“If every American skipped one meal of chicken per week and substituted vegetables and grains… the carbon dioxide savings would be the same as taking more than half a million cars off of U.S. Roads.” ~ Environmental Defense Fund
“The livestock sector emerges as one of the top contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global. The findings of this report suggest that it should be a major policy focus when dealing with problems of land degradation, climate change and air pollution, water shortage and water pollution, and loss of biodiversity… The impact is so significant that it needs to be addressed with urgency.” ~ United Nation Food and Agricultural Organization’s report “Livestock’s Long Shadow”

Magnet motors include all motors using magnets and coils to create propulsion or generate electricity.

They are both wrong because democrats don’t do anything democratic but force laws to create other laws to destroy the USA for the UN and New World Order. There are thousands of magnetic motors. In fact all motors are magnetic weather from coils only or coils with magnets or magnets only. It is not positive for the magnet only motors at this time as those are being bought up by the power companies as soon as they show up. We use 60 HZ in the USA but 50HZ in Europe is more efficient.

Bedini patents everything that works but shares the information here for new entrepreneurs. The only thing not shared are part numbers. except for the electronic parts everything is home made. RPS differ with different parts . Even the transformers with a different number of windings changes the RPM. Different types of cores can make or break the unit working. I was told by patent infringer who changed one thing in a patent and could create and sell almost the same thing. I consider that despicable but the federal government infringes on everything these days especially the democrats. The internet is the only reason large corps. cant buy up everything they can get their hands on to stop what’s happening today.

@Thomas E. Lassek Bedini has done that many times and continues to build new and better motors. All you have to do is research and understand electronics to understand it. There is a lot of fraud out there but you can get through it by research. With 33 years in electronics I can see through the BS and see what really works. Build the SG and see for yourself the working model.. A audio transformer 1:1 ratio has enough windings. a transistor, diode and resistor is all the electronics you need. A wheel with magnets attached from 2″ to however big you want is the last piece. What? Maybe 20 pieces all together? Bedini built one with a 10′ wheel and magnets for a convention with hands on from the audience and total explanations to the scientific community. That t is not fraud

Harvey1 And why should anyone send you a working motor when you are probably quite able to build one yourself. Or maybe not? Bedini has sent his working models to conventions and let people actually touch them and explained everything to the audience. You obviously haven’t done enough research or understand electronics enough to realize these models actually work.. The SC motor generator is easily duplicated. You can find 1:1 audio transformers that work quite well for the motor if you look for them and are fortunate enough to find one along with a transistor, diode and resistor and a wheel with magnets on it.. There is a lot of fraud but you can actually build the simplest motor with a 2″ coil of magnet wire with ends sticking out and one side of the ends bared to the couple and a couple paperclips to hold it up and a battery attached to paperclips and a magnet under it. Building these things is easy when you find the parts to work with. That’s the hard part! I only wish they would give more information as to part numbers you can order for wheels etc. instead of scrounging around on the internet. Wire is no issue because you can find it all over the internet.
GL finding someone rich enough to send you a working model:)

Comment on New Thermal Decomposition Process Produces Hydrogen Fuel sans Carbon Dioxide by bgrnathan

bgrnathan — Fri, 10 May 2013 16:29:14 +0000

GLOBAL WARMING MAY NOT BE MAN MADE
Dr. Larry Vardiman (scientist and physicist) of the Institue for Creation Research says:
“One possible scenario may be found
in a recent series of articles by Henrik Svensmark and Nigel Marsh,
cosmic ray specialists from Denmark, who have shown an indirect
connection between galactic cosmic ray (GCR) intensity and global
temperature.7,8,9 They are studying the influence of the Sun on the flow
of GCR to Earth. The Sun’s changing sunspot activity influences the
magnetosphere surrounding the Earth permitting more GCR to strike the
Earth during high periods of activity.
When the Sun is active, the intensity of GCR striking the Earth is
increased, causing more ionization in the atmosphere, creating more
carbon-14, and possibly creating more cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).
This increase in CCN, in turn, appears to create more low-level clouds
which cool the Earth. When the Sun is quiet the GCR intensity striking
the Earth is reduced, allowing the Earth to warm. Svensmark and Marsh
have shown a striking statistical correlation between sunspot activity
and global cooling and warming over the past 1000 years.
The recent rise in global temperature may partially be due to
current low solar activity supplemented by a recent increase in carbon
dioxide concentration measured at Mauna Loa. The connection which still
needs further study is the production of CCN and clouds by GCR.”
There is a good deal of science showing that global warming is not
mad made. Yes, we still should have pollution controls, as we already
do, but not to the extreme because it will unnecessarily hurt business.

“His prediction has been recently verified by the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland, where scientists actually measured it and confirmed Haramein’s supposition.” – This is false. Please contact the Paul Scherrer Institute.
Of all the academic physicists with professional research experience on the charge radius of the proton, you will find none who would suggest that the work at PSI verified any of the claims in Haramein’s paper or in this video. Indeed you will find none who would suggest that Haramein’s paper has any scientific content at all. Please contact as many as you like.
The publishers of Haramein’s paper are ScienceDomain International. They are known ‘predatory publishers’ who own lookalike scientific journals in which publication can be arranged for a fee.
The suggestion that this valid science rather than a promotional exercise for Haramein’s institution is somewhat misguided.

The internet is full of videos that “show” one fully working. Unfortunately,
it appears they are all fakes because the inventor is always close at hand and
never lets the magic motor out of his sight. All one has to do is put a
rotating magnet (or magnetic field) under the table driven conventionally, to
make the magic motor appear to work on top of the table. That’s why the
inventor cannot let this fraud device out of his control and can never send
anyone a working model. All known and proven technology can work in the hands
of anyone and without the inventor hovering around. Somehow, the true believers
give the Magic Motor a free pass on
that. Why? Because they hate big oil, big government, and most of all The Big
Conspiracy. So, they think the Magic Motor must exist because it’s only fair
that the evil powers be taught a lesson. No logic can dissuade their delusional
belief. The conspiracy must exist to explain the complete and utter lack of a
real working model that can work for anybody. With all the kits out there, no
conspiracy could suppress a working model. Come on, there are whistle blowers
everywhere who would expose such a conspiracy in a minute.
I would pay a generous amount if anyone could send me a small working
magnetic motor to put on my desk. It must be powered only by permanent magnets.

Focus — A Magnetic Motor that can operate outside the control of the
inventor. I challenge anyone to address that single point, and not change the
subject by attacking me, talking about the government, the big oil companies,
911, Tesla, Lutec etc.
I’m waiting…. (Tap…Tap…Tap)

OvidiuSandru Change is never a welcomed result, our whole world is currently trying to maintain the status qoe which is not possible. As far as physics is concerned we have an understanding based solely upon our point of observation, this polarizes our view and means we only see part of the picture. 96% of our universe as we see it is beyond our understanding so obeying the law of physics is relative. The laws that exist will not change but will apply to a set conditions governing that point in reality. That’s why we can’t see a unifying theory yet because we don’t currently understand where all the pieces are. We are making progress.

This project aims to increase the integration of in-wheel motors in a car and will look at vehicle dynamics control, braking, stability and the fun-to-drive factor. So it looks very much like the Ford Fiesta is just the beginning and I doubt that the others will be able to compete against such a strong partnership,

@rd2 I think it depends on how well the regenerative braking works. With an average daily speed of just 15mph [180mi/12hrs] and not including idle time, could it be too slow for regenerative braking? There’s always losses in the system, otherwise you would never have to charge again, because you would recover all the energy on deceleration that you spent on acceleration.

Right DenMay, Schaeffler has owned Protean by surprise I believed, Protean wasnt expecting Schaeffler to announce an ewheel hub drive before them, everything that Protean made public seems to be a little rush to me. And Protean is trying to play with the numbers stating that their hub drive is weighted 31kg motor only, while Schaeffler’s is 53kg. This does sound like Schaeffler one is much heavier but the 2 numbers are incomparable, because Schaeffler’s hub drive comes with a liquid cooling system which is absent or unannounced on the Protean one, also Schaeffler’s one is weight together with the rim and the tyre, thus the weight is much heavier. Schaeffler should now focuses on reducing the weight or the hub drive so that the sprung masses will not affect the handling, acceleration and power consumption etc, perhaps the front wheel can be transformed as a generator to recharge the internal battery for the ewheel hub.

cold weather flow performance yeah i see that, which a pretty good part of the country needs for part of the year. the e. coli-sourced biodiesel is apparently closer to petrodiesel than other biodiesels and probably won’t require any blending even for cold climates.

Comment on E. Coli Strain Generates Pure BioDiesel Just Like the Real Thing by Dehran Duckworth

Dehran Duckworth — Sat, 27 Apr 2013 01:13:09 +0000

Kinda cool article, hooray for another biodiesel feedstock source! Except for the bad data on biodiesel. Pure biodiesel is carbon neutral, slightly less BTU’s per gallon than petrodiesel, but has a higher cetane value (@50 vs 40 for petrodiesel). Today’s biodiesel not only meets the performance of petrodiesel but in almost all cases exceeds not only performance and emissions, but also cost AND lubricity, adding years of life to a diesel engine at a net cost savings. The main reasons for blending biodiesel with petrodiesel are either for cold flow in cold climates, or for conformity with newer diesel exhaust systems which require a fuel be used that has a flashpoint the same as petrodiesel, biodiesel has a much higher flashpoint. Otherwise biodiesel is a superior fuel to petrodiesel in a standard diesel engine. Google it.

Mike, I think that Ev’s do have a long way to go, but with Schaeffler coming up with these electric wheel hub motors, plus using a 16″ wheel as opposed to Protean’s 18″, this is going to go a long way to convincing people that ‘ size does’nt matter !! ‘ This prototype allows a lot more interior space for both people and luggage plus with the 90 degree steering lock, it’s going to make parking in tight spaces a dream. Also with charging points being much more readily available, all we need now is a battery that, once fully charged, will travel a decent distance. Maybe it will be Schaeffler together with Continental that will finally come up with this – then it will be all systems go for the EV.

As this article said, electric cars are not selling that well. Maybe with new technologies like this, things will change.
