E-cat congress in Zurich

Many thanks for this very valuable information. Of couese a cross link to the German comapny is fine, and also very helpful. There have been about two thousand readings of UFT227 in the past week and it would be optimal if the theory could be matched to these experimental data. It would be very useful to have the simplest possible description of the fusion process. For example A + B goes to C + D + energy. Then the theory of UFT227 can be applied directly. I hope that this technology will come on line as quickly as possible and supplant wind turbines. I wrote up UFT227 yesterday and Alex Hill translated it immediately into Spanish.

I am back now from the congress. This was a big succuss with about 200 participants. Rossi attended all sessions and gave an extensive evening talk with myriads of details. Main topic of the congress however was not the technique but market introduction aspects and comparisons with other technologies.

The situation with the E-cat is as follows: Currently a 1 MW version in a container is going to be shipped. A first installation at military exists but cannot ve visited. In about 3 months a company in North Italy will have a first machine from series production which can be studied by interested buyers and investors. The 1 MW version has been certified for industry usage.
The 10 kW version takes longer to certify since some experience with the industrial version has to be available first. Sales may not start before summer/autumn 2013.
The current E-cat technology is based on water steam of 130 degrees Celsius and has a COP of 6. The COP could be higher but has been fixed to this value for saftety reasons. The E-cat is useable mainly for industry heating and cooling applications and will amortise in about 4-5 years. Production of electricity is not meaningful since one would have a COP of 1/6 in the steam-to-electricity conversion, loosing all advantages in total.
Rossi explained details of the next generation device which will produce steam of about 800 degrees. The Ni material is placed between two concentric steel cylinders and the hydrogen will be in a tablet. Both shall be exchangeable in form of a cartrige after 1/2 year. In the current version, external Hydrogen pressure cylinders are required. Operating costs for material are about 6 € per year, but maintenance contracts will be required, and electric input of 1/6 of total power output has to be respected because of the COP of 6.
Rossi anwered a lot of technical questions but not all because of time problems, all questions/answers were presentd in Italian/English/German. My question about realization of the boiling process will probably be answered by an email. The energy and power density of the device exceeds those of conventional motors/generators by a factor of 100 and lies in the range of reactors of nuclear power plants, a typical feature of nuclear technology. However Rossi’s devices were intensively checked for radiation outputs of all kinds and (at least the new generation) does not show any emissions. Concerning the nuclear transmutation process, Rossi argued that gamma rays play an important role.

The chief editor of the PESN/PESWIKI web site was present and wrote some comments in the web in nearly realtime. I spoke to some engineers about the technical aspects and hinted them to the AIAS web site. Would it be possible to make a cross-reference to a German company for E-cat technology on our site? They are quite interested.
