Generating electricity from industrial waste heat

[@ricardocalles140]

I use dissimilar crystals dug from the earth's crust enclosed in a stainless steel chamber mounted to my car's catalytic converter to generate electricity which powers an HHO generator to produce hydrogen gas which is then piped into my car's intake manifold. This helps achieve a 1-2% increase in mileage. Not a huge increase I know, but at least the electricity to generate the HHO is free since I'm using waste heat to generate it. I'm still in the very early stages of my design and I'm still experimenting with different crystals until I find the types that will generate the most electricity from the heat I have to work with. I'm hoping one day that I will be able to find the perfect combination to use and will then get it patented. BTW, in the course of my experimentation, I discovered that not only applying heat to certain crystals will generate electricity, but also by applying pressure to them, I was able to get some to produce electricity so this might be useful in a car where wasted mechanical energy (i.e., from bumps in the road) could be harnessed. I'm thinking that these 2 effects are related since I am hypothesizing that heating certain crystals distorts the crystalline molecular structure similar to applying pressure to them to cause the valence electrons to be pulled from their orbit (by mechanical (i.e. heating or pressure)) means.

This is not a "discovery" but piezoelectricity. It's what is used when you touch your smartphone screen. You apply a pressure with your finger and...Voila! A micro electric current takes place. Also piezoelectricity is used in large weighing cells. The weight pressure is converted to electric value then the pressure is "converted" to mass.

The quality of your videos are crazy good!

@ the 7:20 time ,in the video ,the narrator says " a 200 thousand degree flame " heats the process or heats the kiln . I assume what is ment was 2000 degree Fahrenheit temperature. Right?

I'm from Gainesville green site or GGS @ Gainesville, VA USA west of Washington DC

[@julianreverse]

1.400-1.450 °C is the correct temperature :-D

Good! Especially recently the energy prices have gone up!!

Being an outsider, Germany is the only innovative nation that ensure quality of an essential product.

[@dalsenov]

High temperatures (400-800 Celsius) means high quality steam potential thus electricity. On the cement factories you get this high grade waste heat. On the contrary, in the power plants you get low grade waste heat (90-120 Celsius).The exergy (electricity) was already extracted so all you can do is to take a shower.😀

Can some smarter people than i help our world with this please. Hats off Germany

[@maryyirga5373]

is there any way to get the documentation of the project ???

[@Ressource-deutschlandDe]

Hi Mary, you can find a lot of useful information and studies as well as tools on our resource efficiency website: www.resource-germany.com

[@dalsenov]

15 % is remarkable.As I know,a thermoelectric generator recovers 5-7% of electricity out of the waste heat.

You all prolly dont care at all but does anybody know a method to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.

@Daxton Elliot instablaster =)

[@decayingsofacinema-relaxin6072]

depends on temp and the working fluid inside, from 5% to 36%(900F, mixed fliuds)...

[@joelc9439]

The thermoelectric generator is still pretty good.

[@yakut9876]

it can reach more than that.

[@decayingsofacinema-relaxin6072]

dear VDI team, do you know what ORC brands do they use in these projects?

[@Ressource-deutschlandDe]

Thanks for your request. Unfortunately we do not have this information. But there´s further information linked in the video description. Hope you find there the information you are looking for!

[@decayingsofacinema-relaxin6072]

@@Ressource-deutschlandDe thanks, seems it is from Simenz.

We need morw auch projects 😂😂😂

Great idia

5-6 years pay back or cover the cost, if I was educated person like you I would give my life for this sort of thing for future generations with cleaner air and good atmosphere just because they not my kids but they are my kids kids meaning my grandchildren. No wonder future generations hate old people. In Islam it’s mentioned you slave will be ordering the masters and it is clear children or the slave(poor country workers) will treat you how you treat them so gd luck with all his tech if you can not do the justice too hell with so much about technology Coronavirus shows humans two faces east west both just do the same just as the rest
