Direct Thermal Transport – Bio-waste for Powering Turbine

Dear Technology Review 2010 Jan 25

Internal Combustion engines has been using volatile fuel is to sustain the hundreds of explosion a second.

There is no replacement fuel except pure, volatile, highly explosive fuel - even commercial ethanol need to have high purity, low hydration.

However, turbine need not such high speed explosion. It just needs continuous smooth burning.

To use Cleaner Jet Fuel from Coal to move turbine, especially aircraft turbine (which does not need rapid change of speed.) is as good as using internal combustion engine to turn turbine, fans - modern aircraft will not lift off with this approach.

To save energy, environment, we must use lowest grade of bio-waste to burn, to turn turbine. This will have higher energy content, with the same payload, the same volume. These are critical to the aircraft operation economy.

It was in the 80s, a Soviet Plane was intercepted in Western hemisphere, it was found that it attained exceptional range because it was burning cyclo-carbon - a ring compound like Benzene. It has higher energy density.

To have marginal progress, at great cost, will be to tie ourselves to meet yesterday's equipment, requirements, paradigm of thinking.

To contribute to major breakthrough, as President Hockfield declared in her inauguration 2005, we need to improve combustion of efficiency of high density, high energy content solid fuel, including bio-waste (not purest of food-based ethanol).

How to burn this refer to "Direct Thermal Transport" USPTO.

I can surely see Combustion Engineering become the new, most needed topics of study, research.
