BlackLight Power has invented
a novel chemical process
of causing the latent energy stored in the hydrogen atom to
be released as a new primary energy source. This allows the
negatively charged electron that is otherwise in a stable orbit
to move closer to the naturally attracting, positively charged
nucleus to generate power as heat. BlackLight Power has recently achieved a breakthrough in power generation by the invention of a solid fuel that uses conventional chemical reactions to generate the catalyst and atomic hydrogen at high reactant densities that in turn achieves very high power densities. Plant designs utilize continuous regeneration of the solid fuel mixture using known industrial processes, and the only consumable, the hydrogen fuel, is obtained ultimately from water due to the enormous net energy release relative to combustion.
For an illustration of the stages
of the reaction, please view the Flash animations below. For a
guide to key references, see below. More information may be found
in many of BlackLight's technical papers.
