Cyclone Power Technologies

Just a couple of pics will get video tomorrow

Thank you All and to let you know we are still here. We have had nothing but bad luck in securing enough financing to get this to production. Yes we are delisted but Harry and I are still trying to get the products in production and with the $ to get the company listed again. There is still hope.

GLOBAL WARMING/CLIMATE CHANGE/PREMATURE DEATHS TO BE REDUCTED BY MORE THAN 20% BY TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE NOW
By Frankie Fruge, President, Cyclone Power Technologies Inc
NOx AND HEAT IN ENGINE EXHAUST NEGATIVE IMPACTS - GLOBAL WARMING/CLIMATE CHANGE, PLANTS, ANIMALS, AND HUMANS - THE ANSWER IS HERE NOW!! CYCLONE POWER ENGINES NEAR-ZERO NOX - 66% DECREASE OF HEAT & PARTICULATES

Nitrogen and oxygen are present in the ambient air, which means they're present in the air-fuel mixture combusted in all gasoline and diesel engines. During high temperature/high pressure combustion, these elements combine to form NOx. It's not possible to design an internal combustion engine that does not produce NOx when it burns fuel. BUT CYCLONE HAS DESIGNED A LOW TEMPERATURE EXTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE THAT BRINGS THIS TO NEAR-ZERO OR ZERO NOx.

NOx production in diesel engines runs from 850mg/m³ to 1250mg/m³ based on peak temperature combustion:

NOx reacts with atmospheric chemicals to form secondary fine particulate matter (PM2.5), or soot. Exposure to PM2.5 can cause stroke, ischemic heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer, and lower respiratory infections.⁵ PM2.5 caused 4.2 million premature deaths worldwide in 2015.

When combined with volatile organic compounds and sunlight, NOx helps form ground-level ozone, a major component of smog. Ozone can cause or exacerbate chronic lung diseases like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or emphysema, especially among vulnerable populations like children and the elderly, for whom it may prove deadly. Researchers attribute 254,000 premature deaths to ozone pollution in 2015.⁵

NOx emissions also affect ecosystems and agricultural crops. Ozone pollution is toxic to plants and contributes to loss of biomass, crop yields, and forest productivity. PM2.5 pollution reduces solar irradiation, decreasing photosynthesis in plants and reducing their biomass. The loss in biomass means less carbon is sequestered in plants, leaving more CO2 in the atmosphere. Both ozone and PM2.5 pollution can directly change the way ecosystems work by affecting the exchange of CO2 and water v***r across the surface of leaves, which can have significant effects on hydrology—even changing stream flows.

Particulate matter or soot is created during the incomplete combustion of diesel fuel. Its composition often includes hundreds of chemical elements, including sulfates, ammonium, nitrates, elemental carbon, condensed organic compounds, and even carcinogenic compounds and heavy metals such as arsenic, selenium, cadmium and zinc.¹ Though just a fraction of the width of a human hair, particulate matter varies in size from coarse particulates (less than 10 microns in diameter) to fine particulates (less than 2.5 microns) to ultrafine particulates (less than 0.1 microns). Ultrafine particulates, which are small enough to pe*****te the cells of the lungs, make up 80-95% of diesel soot pollution.

Diesel exhaust has been classified a potential human carcinogen by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Exposure to high levels of diesel exhaust has been shown to cause lung tumors in rats, and studies of humans routinely exposed to diesel fumes indicate a greater risk of lung cancer. For example, occupational health studies of railroad, dock, trucking, and bus garage workers exposed to high levels of diesel exhaust over many years consistently demonstrate a 20 to 50 percent increase in the risk of lung cancer or mortality.²

Of course, soot levels in many cities of China, India and poorer countries are much worse than in the US and Europe, with horrible health impact. Dirty diesel trucks, backup generators, dirty motorbikes and cars with little to no pollution control devises (as well as coal plants) are to blame.

NOx in Gasoline powered engines:

In the US, Europe and Japan, modern gasoline-engine vehicles are equipped with an effective three-way catalytic converter as part of the exhaust system. It's called a three-way catalytic converter because it controls three pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), which combines with oxygen in the converter to become carbon dioxide (CO2); unburned hydrocarbons, which combine with oxygen to produce CO2 and water v***r (H2O); and NOx, which is reduced over the catalyst to nitrogen and water and/or CO2. The three-way catalyst, invented in the 1970s, is inexpensive and poses little or no penalty to fuel economy, performance, drivability, or maintenance. And it is effective. A new 2017 gasoline-engine passenger car properly tuned and with a well-maintained catalyst operating in normal conditions, reduces by 90% the NOx that would otherwise exit the tailpipe. (This does not mean that the NOx problem is fully solved for gasoline engines; a hundred thousand cars stuck in traffic still add up to a health hazard and a pollution problem.)

NOW FOR BOTH GASOLINE AND DIESEL ENGINES THERE IS STILL SIGNIFICANT NOx AND ALSO HEAT WHICH EXITS THE ENGINE AT 1200⁰F in gasoline and 700 to 1090⁰F in diesel engines.

Fact: There are 276 million registered motor vehicles in the US in 2019 and over 1.2 Billion worldwide, inclusive of gas and diesel, and if the average exhaust temperature is say 1000⁰F that means we are putting into the air 276 million times 1000⁰F of additional exhaust heat into the atmosphere every second we run these engines. And this is just on road vehicles in the US, not even considering the more than one billion registered vehicles outside the US, or the heat and NOx coming from off road, generators, pumps, train, ships, etc. that are all putting NOx and excessive heat into our world.⁸

NOW FOR THE SOLUTION TO EXCESSIVE HEAT AND NOx.

External combustion engines are here NOW with NEAR-ZERO to ZERO NOx; exhaust heat to the atmosphere of only 190⁰F to 350⁰F; no catalytic converter needed; and able to use Gasoline or Diesel or Bio-Fuel or any combustion with the same results. Efficiencies of energy used to energy out is between 32% and 37% depending on working fluid temperature. ZERO oil changes and manufacturing friendly.¹

HEAT TO ATMOSPHERE IS NOW REDUCED BY 276 MILLION(USA)/1.2 BILLION (WORLD) TIMES 275⁰F (CYCLONE AVERAGE EXHAUST TEMPERATURE) A REDUCTION OF 66%.

NEAR-ZERO TO ZERO NOx - A REDUCTION OF 97% to 100%

Greenhouse gases and waste heat contribute to global warming:

A greenhouse gas (sometimes abbreviated GHG) is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range. Greenhouse gases cause the greenhouse effect. The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water v***r, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone.⁴

Elon Musk has dubbed the internal combustion engine, powered as it is by thousands of small explosions inside its cylinders, a “remarkable kludge.” Automotive engineers have indeed made modern gasoline and diesel engines perform remarkably — but now the limits are being reached.⁶ And while there are specific uses for electric cars, it has to be noted that they use twice the amount of fuel to create the electricity for them.⁷
Now technology trends, public insistence, industry investment, and government policy are all signaling that Beilenson’s dream — an end to the burden of a transportation system powered by exploding gasoline or diesel combustion engines — is coming within grasp.³

THE ANSWER:

By employing the use of Cyclone’s external combustion engine, we have:

• Reduced the heat to the atmosphere by 66%.
• Eliminated NOx by 97% to potentially 100%, the greatest health risk component of Greenhouse gases.
• Reduced carbon dioxide by 30% or more.
• Reduced particulate matter by 80% by Cyclone’s centrifuge burning.
• Reduced significantly the 4.2 million premature deaths caused by ICE’s.

An external combustion engine is a heat engine where an (internal) working fluid is compressed and heated by combustion of an external fuel through the engine wall or a heat exchanger. The fluid then, by expanding and acting on the mechanism of the engine (piston or turbine), produces a shaft power.³
