Salt Water for gas, cures cancer too
- Thread starter sinkingbeach
- Start date
While the idea behind the cancer cell killing is rather intriguing and probably promissing (though the real challange will be the tagging of the cancer cells and only cancer cells), the "water fuel" idea is ridiculous and stupid when your realize how it works.
Interesting Applications!! Given today's problems re cancer and oil shortages,problems in the Middle East,global warming etc.,
this is worth exploring. After all, 120 years ago who could have predicted that explosions of air/gasoline in a tiny space coild be safely controlled to power cars, airplanes, etc.
I give this guy credit. Thankf for sharing it.

PS.. Mow, if this guy could only engineer a way for us to EASILY stabilize ALL the water parmeters in our reefs!!!LOL

Cancer fighting.
Gold does not have a special propensity to attach to cells (although for Mr. T maybe it did...yeah I watched the A team and enjoyed it...). Even if gold somehow could be INJECTED into the bloodstream, I'd be amazed to know how one can tell the difference between gold attached cells versus just hemoglobin (aka IRON) in the blood.
Totally agree.
Separating the hydrogen and oxygen from saltwater isn't the issue. What happens to the sodium? It certainly isn't precipitating as the dry substance. Could it possibly be escaping as (gasp) chlorine gas? I don't think I stayed awake for my physics class in High School so those of you with recent h.s. grads maybe you could ask your kids. I'm pretty sure I failed in studying the laws of thermodynamics.
Anyways - even if all of the above were true (that is, you can burn the water cleanly using radio waves), how much energy is being used to power that radio device? I'm guessing he's using more electricity than could possibly be recouped from that flame.

Well, that is for sure, otherwise you would have perpetum mobile ;D No, the reason I said it is stupid, is that he is using:
electrical energy -> electromagnetic energy -> chemical energy
and loosing a lot of energy on each step, instead of just plugging the wires into water and having
electrical energy -> chemical energy
with far, far less loss of energy. Plus with his separation of water into oxygen and hydrogene, those gasses are mixed and therefore will burn uncontrollably, while if you use the electrodes in the water, you can fully separate those gasses and therefore you can control the burning process (location).
Also, the usefulness of transfer of energy
electrical -> chemical -> thermal -> mechanical (?)
is questionable.
electrical -> thermal or electrical -> mechanical (via electromagnetical)
are still more optimal.
