  2. NANOSTRUCTURED PD-ANF COMPOSITES FOR CONTROLLED LENR EXPLOITATION

    SBC: AMPHIONIC LLC            Topic: A

    Energy production has been dominated by hydrocarbon fuels, which are plentiful, cheap, and delivered through an efficient and widespread infrastructure. However, because the combustion of those fuels results in airborne pollutants and CO2 emission, there has been an intense effort to replace those combustion technologies with low-cost, low-emission energy sources. Low-energy nuclear reactions (LEN ...

  3. OPERA: Optimizing a potassium-ion electrolyte for revolutionary automotive batteries

    SBC: Project K Energy, Inc.            Topic: 1

    We propose to develop and commercialize a potassium-ion battery for use in electric vehicles (EVs). The fundamental properties of potassium transport in organic electrolytes allow for fast charging from 0 to 80% capacity in less than 5 minutes. The battery will pair a stable, open-framework cathode based on a Prussian blue analog (PBA) with a conventional graphite anode for a high-performance batt ...

  7. High Performance Nanocomposite Kraft Papers to Improve Insulation and Lifetime of Large Power Transformers

    SBC: C-CRETE TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: C

    Transformers are critical for the power grid distributions via stepping up down the voltage. The key cause of failure in majority of transformers is the insulation problem related to the kraft paper. The objective of this project is to integrate a collection of advanced surface chemistry, kraft paper fabrication, and rapid property screening, followed by standard testings and pilot demonstration t ...
