General Environmental Management, Inc. (GEM, OTC BB: GEVI.OB), a leading environmental and waste remediation company, in conjunction with the Institute for Clean Energy Technology (ICET, formerly the Diagnostic Instrumentation and Analysis Laboratory, DIAL) at Mississippi State University has completed successful testing on a unique and very inexpensive process to generate hydrogen, on demand.
Tests have shown that the proper composition of common, readily available waste materials in the presence of water and an alkali metal salt causes sufficient heat to generate large quantities of hydrogen gas and water vapor.
“The objective of this research was to identify the optimum metal powder composition and their reaction with water to generate thermal energy and produce hydrogen,” said J.P. Singh, Ph.D., who helped coordinate the study at Mississippi State. “It is hoped that the thermal energy could be used to treat various types of waste and the production of hydrogen gas as an alternative fuel source.” “Producing hydrogen from waste, while extremely economical, eliminates the reliance on natural gas and drastically reduces the greenhouse gases generated by the current production process,” said GEM Executive Vice President and CCO Clyde Rhodes. ""the move back to the future used garbage to power the time machine."" |
