Abstract:
It is a truism to state that the current combustion of fossil fuels, including coal, is essentially the same as that at the dawn of civilization, because we merely strike a spark and ignite the fuel, resulting in known environmental problems, including the emission of non-combusted particulates, carbon monoxide, and other contaminants. Mathematical and theoretical research initiated by the author at Harvard University under support from the U. S. Department of Energy in the 1980s, and more recently at Thunder Energies Corporation has resulted in a basically new conception of combustion, called Hyper=Combustion(TM and patent pending), realized in special furnaces called Hyper=Furnaces(TM), in which the combustion is activated by specially designed high voltage pulsing DC arcs that trigger localized nuclear syntheses, such as that of 14-Si-28 from 6-C-12 and 8-O-16, or of 22-Ti-44 from 8-O-16 and 14-Si-28 without any emission of harmful radiation or release of radioactive waste. Said nuclear syntheses cause the combustion at a local very high temperature, thus allowing complete combustion without any combustible contaminant
