Infinity Turbine LLC is pleased to announce its consulting and analyst services.
Energy: Since 1985, I have worked in the renewable energy industry as a researcher, developing sales and markets, along with may inventions and innovations. A wide breadth of subjects and project development includes some of the following subjects.
History
Wood Energy: From 1985 until 2008: Doing business as Global Energy, developed and sold wood energy (biomass) systems. First with selling Waterwide Gasifiers from New Zealand in 1986, and then branching off into developing and selling my own systems, including steam turbines and steam engines.
Container Kiln: In the mid 1990s, developed and sold a shipping container lumber/firewood dry kiln system (Container Kiln), which was modular and portable.
Section 29 Non-Conventional Fuel Credit: Also in the 1990’s developed and assisted groups wanting to get tax credits for landfill gas, as well as wood gas under the Section 29 (non-conventional fuel) tax credit. As a wood energy specialist, I pointed out that wood doesn’t burn, but it’s actually the gas released from the wood. Many companies saved (or got refunded) millions of tax dollars.
Capstone Turbine Secondary Market: In 2001 started consulting and selling the Capstone Microturbine (micro distributed grid power generator) and currently buy and sell these turbines into the secondary market.
Gas to Liquids: In 2004 formed Ocean Ethanol LLC with an investor to develop my invention of converting CO2 into fuel grade ethanol, methanol, and butanol. With a short development window, we proved we could make alcohol fuel cheaper than existing fuel prices, but investor pulled out within 6 months, since he did not see an immediate return (even though it was projected to take at least 12 months to market). We were able to produce methanol and butanol from reversing a fuel cell (i.e. input was liquid CO2, water, and electricity, and output was alcohol). As a result I was issued two patents for my Modular Fluid Handling Device I and II in my name, and I have sole ownership of patents. https://patents.google.com/patent/US7726331B1/en?assignee=gregory+C+Giese
It was this initial research and development into liquid CO2, that gives us the advantage in the CO2 extraction field.
Waste Heat to Energy: In 2008 started Infinity Turbine LLC to discover, promote, develop, and build waste heat to power (renewable energy) systems. For a number of years, owned and operated a fulling functioning machine shop near Seattle, Washington with a waterjet, laser, and vertical milling machine. We experimented with most forms of prime movers, including the Tesla Disc Turbine, Sterling Engine, Axial Turbine, and finally settled on the Radial Outflow Turbine. We employed the services of Henry Technologies in Canada to build the heat exchangers for our Organic Rankine Cycle systems, and then paired with our turbine generator builds. The predominant challenges were pressure seals, rotational speed, and moving parts. Basically, if you have more than one moving part, the system will fail. With the interest in CO2 as the working fluid (to reduce equipment footprint by increasing efficiency and pressure to produce rotational mechanical energy), we starting experimenting with liquid CO2 and phase change. Ultimately, the Holy Grail of power production is to reduce the number of moving parts and seals to a minimum.
Solid State Turbine: In our CO2 experiments, we studied the Colorado Springs notes from Nikola Tesla. We found some interesting characteristics of CO2 as it undergoes phase changes, including a tremendous production of static (DC) electricity. To that end, we started to develop a Solid State Turbine using Tribo Effect. We found that by using a hybrid polymer material, we could generate static electricity simply by pressure reduction of CO2 gas. Similar electrostatic effects were seen all the way back to the origins of steam power (coined the Armstrong Effect). The electrodynamic gas two phase system not only pertains to water-steam relations but any gaseous liquid two phase components. It can also cause explosions when using CO2 fire extinguishers, as seen in a silo explosion in Norway in 2010 and in multiple accidents when the static discharge seeded an explosion, as presented in this article. Using phase change to our advantage may be able to be the next Holy Grail of energy production. Why ? No moving parts. Plus CO2 goes supercritical at 89F or 30C, which allows utilization of low grade heat (as in the cloud server farms or even solar thermal parking lots). A Solid State Turbine scales up and down easily, and could even be used by Elon Musk for his Solar City or on Tesla cars to power the thermal management system by simply putting up black colored tubes on the roof to capture solar thermal energy. A new wave of HVAC strategy could combine low temperature solar thermal, along with ground geothermal for cooling (Organic Rankine Cycle needs both heat and cold sink). The ultimate Solid State Turbine deployment would be with a cavitation CO2 pump, for the least amount of moving parts (one). This is the system which will power us into the next few decades.
Plasma Wing: Some of the research for Corona Discharge also led to studying plasma generated by a static field. This may be applied to aircraft wings for wing deicing (mitigation) and even some interesting methods of increase lift, which may impact applications for silent drone propellers. You will notice static mitigation on wings by the use of static whips (on the tailing edge of most aircraft wings).
Botanical Extraction Systems: Starting in 2015, I started Infinity Supercritical, which uses the CO2 phase change process to extract oil from plants. It turns out that the same ORC system, can be used for plant oil extraction. It was in the past five years with this process development that we perfected CO2 phase change, and actually discovered the corona discharge for ourselves (shop workers were getting shocked while venting CO2). The CO2 phase change systems can also be used to sterilize PPE, and recycling precious metals from lithum ion batteries (LIB), and some have even proposed it is more valuable than Gold Mining.
Hydrodynamic Cavitation Processing Systems: Concurrent with the Modular Blocks and Extraction Systems, I developed a Spinning Disc Reactor for process intensification. Termed the Sonic Extractor, this device uses spinning discs to hydrodynamically cavitate water. It turns out that you can also cavitation CO2 (quite easily) which allows us to use a spinning disc to phase change CO2 from a liquid to gas, and act as a pump. This methodology is perfect for Silver Nanoparticle production, and other continuous push-button manufacturing.

Induction Magnetics: In my quest for better and faster processing of botanicals, I have also developed a induction (touchless) mixing system based on a micro version of the Bitter Plate Magnet. This fun little project allows DIY at-home making and formulation of cosmetics and skin creams.
Counter-Rotating Turbine with One Moving Part: Years ago I designed and 3-D printed (in metal) a one part assembly which acted as both a turbine, and a turbo-pump. This counter-rotating design takes the best of what 3-D printing has to offer, while simultaneously mitigating the inherencies of modern turbine design (seal, temperature, and moving part issues). While this design was primarily for energy production in the ORC process, it could easily be ported to a turbofan design for drones. Imagine a drone, which was sucked up, instead of the traditional method of thrust-down. Along with thrust-down also comes lots of noise. In this case using a Counter-Rotating Turbine, a vortex would suck up the drone, and all noise would be projected into the sky. An added benefit (other than low noise) would be a very low heat signature, since compressed and expelled exhaust are mixed together.
Phase Change Battery: Using CO2 (which is a energy dense working fluid) leveraging the phase change would essentially make pressure the electrolyte. This battery concept can accept multiple charging inputs including heat, electricity, and friction to store energy.
CO2 Gas Turbine: With a cavitating disc compressor, CO2 (instead of air) would make a very interesting high altitude gas turbine, which leverages the cold temperatures of high altitude for condensing, while making a closed-loop, energy efficient power unit, which could power electric turbofans for commercial aircraft.
Gas Leverage Turbine: Extending CO2 Gas Turbine concept, a industrial version could be used in harmony with CO2 and its sonichemistry reactions to make industrial goods, such as gas-to-liquids, chemicals, and other industrial raw goods.

Refrigeration at Sea and at Home
Summary: Traditional cruisers need power hungry refrigeration and freezers for meats, dairy, and other high-spoilage rate animal products. Instead, consider fulfilling your steak cravings for shore visits. Acquire and use a solar oven for a midday hot meal, or making beans and rice. You can always heat up later in the power efficient microwave or induction electric stove top or hot plate. Consider energy efficient methodology using a Instant Pot pressure cooker, which reduces cooking time (i.e. power consumption) and keeps the heat out of the galley. Dump the propane. It’s expensive to get, takes storage space, and is a heavy gas (sinks instead of rises) which presents a explosion hazard, and goes right to the bilge. Harvesting plants for food daily does not require the use of refrigeration. For a complete link of solar electrical self-generation options, please visit our page here.

Solar Thermal Cooking and Heating Strategy
Summary: Solar ovens provide a power-free cooking choice. Limited to midday (sunshine) hours, you can extend cooking time by putting in solar thermal heat absorbers, such as lava rock, dark colored bricks, or a new innovative technology called Zeolite pellets. Pellets are heated, and then when water is applied, the heat is released (water boils). Harvesting plants for food daily does not require the use of refrigeration.

Eco Habitat from the Solar Electric Ship to Stay-at-Home Opportunities
With the advent of overpriced and overtaxed land-based accommodations and workspaces, a eco-minded alternative has been inspired by the Swiss lake paddlewheelers. Switzerland and Italy are adorned with many large lakes, rivers, canals, and access to seas and oceans. Yet, finding reasonably priced housing and workspaces are a challenge. While this is not a solution for many, for a few it provides a environmentally friendly alternative to not only access the region, but make money at it. The concept of a efficient multihull that is alternatively powered by the sun and wind may be the answer. Using a modular platform allows this concept to apply for a AirBNB, vacation home, workspace, or even workshop. The portability gives this concept far reaching possibilities. For South Pacific getaways, simply adding stainless steel legs makes this modular platform into a over-water-villa, completely self-sufficient. Most important, this solution is a low carbon emitting, sustainable habitat that can be self-built, or commercially produced. This article examines a self-sufficient habitat that can be applied at land or water. For a complete link of solar electrical self-generation options, please visit our page here.

Ice Making
On demand countertop ice makers provide an excellent alternative to custom (and expensive) refrigerators and under-counter devices. The are inexpensive (i.e. fast payback), can use your filtered water, and can be used for peak-shaving large solar outputs during mid-day, when your lithium battery bank is full and you have extra solar power production. We also recommend this is when you do laundry, or other power-hungry applications. One solar panel can provide enough output to run a icemaker (and then some). If you need larger capacities, then simply empty ice into Ziplock bags, and store in your Dometic freezer chest.

Silver Nanoparticle Production
Spinning Disc Reactor for Silver Nanoparticle Production to make $24 million per year
For the full review, please download our pdf:
Spinning Disc Reactors, or SDRs, are a very new type of processing unit that has had new applications discovered every year.
A big field of interest as of lately has been process intensification which is a design approach that focuses on smaller, cleaner, safer, and more energy efficient processes. One design that has received considerable attention as of late has been the spinning disc reactor (SDR). Its basic design includes one or more liquid streams being flowed onto a quickly rotating disc.
Science Link: Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Astragalus tribuloides Delile. Root Extract: Characterization, Antioxidant, Antibacterial, and Anti-Inflammatory Activities (visit link here)
The centrifugal acceleration from the rotation creates a very thin liquid film which significantly heightens the mass transfer and micro-mixing ability of the liquid streams. It also is a continuous feed reactor which can be applied to many processes that have relied on large volume and high residence time designs like batch or continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTR).
While the SDR can be used for many different processes, it excels greatly in a specific few. These include processes that rely on precipitation and uniformly mixed reactants. These traits allow for SDRs to be used in the bottom-up production of nanoparticles, where particles are created through nucleations and subsequently crystal growth. This is where batch reactors and CSTRs aren’t as easily applied due to their high volumes and lack of sufficient mixing ability. “Top-down” processing where bulk material is ground down into nanoparticles is typically avoided when trying to achieve nanoparticles of a certain size and narrow size distribution due to the lack of control over the process.
In 2010, the global market for quantum dots was low, sitting at $67 million [27]. It was projected to have an amazing 59.3% compound annual growth rate, which was mostly realized and by 2016 it has become a $610 million global market (with the estimated CAGR it was predicted to reach $670 million by 2015) [28]. The current growth rate is estimated at 41.3% now for 2016 to 2021, predicting the global market to reach $3.4 billion by 2021 [28].
Both silver and titanium dioxide nanoparticles have a realized and open market to enter with predicted growth and new applications coming out consistently. The cost to produce the materials is rather low and the production ability seems high enough, especially with silver, that a company could actively pursue using an SDR to produce the nanoparticles with success. Since the proof of concept and idea is already detailed, there would be a low cost of entry into these markets as well. The revenue from such could be used to support R and D into quantum dots or pharmaceutical nanoparticles.
Strategy: (prices updated on 5 January 2021)
Silver Nano Particles Production at $14.25/gram Sell Price ($285/20/ml):
[Note: these are 2017 figures. For 2021 double the figures below.] If silver nanoparticles of 99% purity or higher can be produced anywhere in the range of 10 nm – 40 nm, they can be sold at a wholesale price of $3+ a gram ($6/gram in 2021). To undercut the market to allow for entry I assumed a price of $2 a gram ($4/gram in 2021). This comes out to be about $24 million a year in revenue for 2017 ($48 million in 2021). As seen in Table 15, this comes out to about $12 million a year in profit for 2017 ($24 million a year for 2021). Referencing Section 2.21, a producer with the production rate would have a 1.56 percent market share of the global market.
Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Astragalus tribuloides Delile. Root Extract: Characterization, Antioxidant, Antibacterial, and Anti Inflammatory Activities: “Today, the green synthesis of metal nanoparticles is a promising strategy in material science and nanotechnology. In this research, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized through the high-efficient, cost-effective green and facile process, using the Astragalus tribuloides Delile. root extract as a bioreduction and capping agent at room temperature. The biological procedure is more promising as compared to physical and chemical methods because it is economical, flexible, and eco-friendly. Reduced Ag is toxic to microorganisms because it has the ability to damage their cell walls and disrupt their appropriate functions and development. This is because the released Ag ions interact with macromolecules like deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and proteins in these cells. Because of their small size and the large surface-area-to-volume ratio, the AgNPs might show the higher biological activity than that exerted by ionic Ag. To the extent of our knowledge, this is the first study on the green synthesis of the AgNPs by the root extract of the studied medicinal plant. The current study presented the very simple, fast, affordable, and environmentally friendly green The current study presented the very simple, fast, affordable, and environmentally friendly synthesis of AgNPs by the A. tribuloides Delile. root extract as a bioreducing and capping agent. The AgNPs the synthesized AgNPs were spherical, with a distribution of size from 16.2 to 51.5 nm. The AgNPs fabricated by using the A. tribuloides root extract according to the procedure proposed in the present work have potent antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties, which were remarkably better than those established for the extract itself. Therefore, the greenly synthesized AgNPs can be used for biomedical applications, as a new drug combination.”

Drying Hemp in a Container Kiln Dryer with a Capstone Turbine C800:
Using the Capstone Turbine to dry hemp in combination with a conveyor dryer or drum dryer, expect the following throughput based on 970 btu to evaporate 1 pound of water. The Capstone Turbine exhaust can be mixed with dry outside air to direct heat a hemp dryer. Alternatively, put output into a stainless steel pipe and then use fans to circulate and heat air in dyer. This is in the true sense cogeneration (produce both usable heat and power at the same time). The power can be used to run fans, or exported to the grid for utility buyback (typically more hassle and low buyback rate than it’s worth). Because this is dual mode, you can trailer mount this module along with a trailer mounted drum dryer or conveyor dryer module for portable drying (bring to the farm fields directly). You will need a propane tank trailer and associated interconnection equipment to fuel system. Alternatively, you can truck in the hemp flower from the fields in a hub-spoke system.
C800 Net Heat Rate: 10,300 BTU/kWh x 800 kW power = 8,240,000 btu/hr
8,240,000 btu/hr / 970 btu/lb/water = 8,494.85 lbs water
Heat Available for Evaporation: 8,240,000 btu/hr available / 970 btu/lb/water evaporation = 8,494.85 lbs water evaporated per hour under standard conditions.
Hemp Production Per Acre Variables: One acre of hemp flower drying to 10 percent moisture content (i.e. removing 90 percent water weight):
500 lbs per acre hemp flower harvest: @ 90 percent evaporate = 450 lbs –> 8,494.85 lbs water (c800) / 450 lbs = 18 acres per hour
1,000 lbs per acre hemp flower harvest: @ 90 percent evaporate 8,494.85 lbs water (c800) / 900 lbs = 9 acres
1,500 lbs per acre hemp flower harvest: @ 90 percent evaporate 8,494.85 lbs water (c800) / 1,350 lbs = 6 acres per hour
2,000 lbs per acre hemp flower harvest: @ 90 percent evaporate 8,494.85 lbs water (c800) / 1,800 lbs = 4 acres per hour
Electronic Jet Turbine Project
Infinity Turbine has been working on a new jet turbine technology, which includes plasma, vortex airflow, tribo effect, and induction heating to achieve a truly unique turbine thrust for aviation. Essentially, this is a gas leverage turbine based on many propulsion theories and experiments done over the past ten years within Infinity. The applications may be applied to both fixed wing aircraft, rotary wing aircraft, and VTOL applications, like drones. While the emphasis is focused on airborne applications, ground based power (APU/GPU) and primary power systems are also being considered.
The core element is one rotating part, code named project Redstone, which is a counter-rotating compressor and turbine unit as a 3D printed part.
The two examples below are 3-D printed assemblies. At this time we’re only showing rough unmachined parts, that do not show any induction magnetics or tribo-effect (plasma) components. Compressor pressure of 80 psi has been demonstrated. Much of the information is proprietary at this time, and may be released sometime in the future.
Assisted GPU Takeoff: One of the many power management considerations for battery aircraft are assisted takeoff by using induction coils, or actual physical tethered power cords. In this example, the huge amount of power for takeoff would not deplete the on-board battery power system. Tethered drones are already in use, with this same concept.
Goals: Our goals with this post is to attract Elon Musk, and his vision of electronic powered passenger aircraft. This may be one option for propulsion for such a visionary craft.

Supercritical CO2 Power Generation Demonstrator $50,000
Introducing the Infinity Turbine Supercritical CO2 Phase Change Demonstrator
Phase Change Generator • Electrostatics Generator Using Tribo-Tube • Ion Generator • SWET
Now Available for Educational and Inventors
Testing and Development Platform
Price: $50,000
Available as a prototype testing platform, Infinity has developed a micro-sized Supercritical CO2 Rankine Cycle (phase change flow cycle). The high pressure filter housing (off-the-shelf) used as the expander vessel, can also be used with various catalysts (Lithium), plastics (TriboGen), or a combination of a turbine and static electricity harvesting system. Our hybrid food-grade plastic elements can also be used for electrostatic precipitation (ESP), if you have particulates entrained in the gas flow. This is to demonstrate the potential of the Supercritical CO2 Rankine Cycle as a point-of-use distributed power generation technology using low grade heat via CO2. This includes waste heat from computer server farms, solar thermal, etc.
This unit can use heat as low as 89F to phase change liquid CO2 to vapor, then pressure drop to generate large voltages and ions over a hybrid plastic.
Recent developments in solid state wind generators see:
A solid-state wind-energy transformer
https://aip.scitation.org/doi/full/10.1063/1.5109776
a Solid-state Wind-Energy Transformer (SWET), uses coronal discharge to create negative air ions, which the wind carries away from the SWET. The SWET harnesses the wind-induced currents and voltages to produce electrical power.
The generation of airflows by ionic currents, “electrohydrodynamics,” is well studied and has numerous applications,1 even including airplane flight.2 The reverse process, using airflows to create ionic currents, has received much less attention. Until now, no one has generated net electrical power with wind-driven ionic currents. The barrier for producing electrical power by this process is the high mobility of air ions: the mobility problem. Electric fields pull the ions through the neutral air, creating drift currents that tend to short-out the voltages generated by the wind-driven currents. This mobility problem can be overcome if the apparatus is designed such that the electric fields are sufficiently weak so that the wind largely controls the ion motion.
