Good point!!!
The colour of the flame is a strong hint towards Na being involved in some way.
Sadly we don't hear a word on efficiency, which is not that hard to measure - or any other detail to reproduce the process.
The biggest problem around the whole thing is the problem of human nature. People find such phenomena then they realise the commercial potential and after that they can't see the forest (Nature) for the (money-) trees anymore. They go paranoid that they won't see the money they 'think' they own. Hence we never see a patent or - if we do, the inventor usually goes broke on maintaining it. So after a few years there is 'evidence' that the invention was not commercially viable. Where the truth is that it only failed because there was not enough money around to get it to the market, allowing the petro-chem-industry with the most vested interest to go back to business as normal.
It's not a catch22 - it's a catch484!
... all the best! WalterPrivate Reply to Walter Hartmann (new win) |
