Voltage Enterprises, a disruptive technology company, claimed it has made a major breakthrough in its search to innovate a ground-breaking ‘clean gas’ energy source.
It is expected to not only provide an alternative supply to natural gas, but also boast zero CO2 emissions besides being cheaper than current domestic household and business energy supplies by as much as 80%, a release said.
This discovery could play a major role in reversing the global energy crisis, significantly reducing energy costs to the consumer and businesses sectors at a time when the cost-of-living crisis is worsening, and inflation has reached a 40-year high, the release said.
Ahead of its time
The scientific breakthrough, which is 10 years ahead of its time, has been made by a team from Voltage. The company, which has been funded by Aquarius Global, an investment company and tech incubator also based in Abu Dhabi, is also working on further innovations and disruptive technology projects, said the statement.
Code-named Kinetic 7, the scientific breakthrough is a clean gas energy source that is a stable and an efficient gas derived solely from water. Whilst creating a gas from water such as hydrogen is not new, Kinetic 7 has a unique molecular chemistry that is way more advanced than hydrogen gas.
For example, hydrogen gas is obtained through electrolysis, where pure distilled water (H2O) is broken down into (H2) and (O2) gases. Not only does this use a huge amount of energy to create the molecular process; it requires high pressure storage and has a low flash point, making it very unstable.
KINETIC 7 will bring efficient cooking and heating across Africa to developing nations, war-torn countries and places where poor infrastructure has inhibited or restricted access to clean energy, said the statement.
The company will be manufacturing miniaturised KINETIC 7 portable cooking and heating stoves that will change the lives of millions for the better, providing low-cost energy and heat using clean or untreated water. Ultimately, in developed countries, the cost of KINETIC 7 gas will be cheaper than current energy providers. KINETIC 7™ is low-maintenance, safe, efficient and significantly reduces household energy costs, it said.
Patented technology
Kinetic 7 patented technology reconstructs and converts water into molecular clusters, which are electrically charged to create a constant oxidisation and friction. This makes the molecules more efficient, causing them to vibrate, which in turn creates a very reactive gas, providing a clean gas and flame.
Unlike hydrogen gas Kinetic 7 is also inert, making it a safe and controllable gas for domestic and industrial supply. Most importantly, the cost savings by using Kinetic 7 will be substantial against current gas and energy costs.
The Kinetic 7 generators which create the clean gas, will be manufactured to high standards in Europe. The current process of making the gas is both EU-approved and CE-certified.
Eight years of research
The Kinetic 7 discovery, which has taken more than eight years of research and development, will not only enable countries and global economies to maintain their own gas independence and sovereignty, but will also ensure global energy security, with an unlimited supply of carbon neutral gas to both domestic and industrial customers.
Rick Parish, Founder and Executive Chairman of investment incubator Aquarius Global, which has funded the research and development of Voltage Enterprises, said: “Kinetic 7 represents more than eight years of scientific research, development and tech innovation by a dedicated team of scientists and tech disruptors, all working to produce a clean energy source that is carbon-neutral, significantly cheaper, stable and efficient – but disruptive in every sense to the status quo.
“Kinetic 7 is a major gamechanger in the global energy market. Just as we saw with the oil boom, the technologies and science that we are innovating, developing and disrupting in the energy sector through Voltage Enterprises are truly ground-breaking – a world first for the energy sector!”
Parish added: “In much the same way that solar power is currently being used in domestic housing, Kinetic 7 will allow households to produce their own clean gas energy source, using water and a small amount of electricity. The cost to create the clean gas is minimal. The Kinetic 7 generator unit will be retrofitted into homes.
“The plug-n-play product, which uses a small amount of AC or DC power and water, will allow the householder to enjoy the same natural gas/LPG benefits without the high costs, supply disruptions and dramatic price increases. An external wall unit can be fitted to a domestic household and used for stove cooktops and ovens, hot water systems, ambient heating and underfloor heating.”
Utilisation
Kinetic 7 can be utilised in three ways:
•The Kinetic 7 flame can be used for domestic energy supply in ambient heating, cooking and hot water heating.
•Kinetic 7 gas also has a major role to play in providing clean energy for industrial production. Large-scale manufacturing, engineering and industry are all hugely reliant on vast amounts of energy in their production and manufacturing processes. Food production, restaurants and hotels are also gas- and energy-intensive, and Kinetic 7 can now provide a cleaner more efficient energy source that is carbon-neutral and significantly cheaper than existing natural gas supplies.
•Kinetic 7 can also be used as a clean energy gas source for heating and cooking from portable stoves in remote locations and developing countries which do not have access to gas or energy.
Parish said: “With Kinetic 7 we have the world’s first commercially viable clean gas energy source that can be used in domestic households. At the same time, Kinetic 7 can power large-scale industrial production and manufacturing, providing clean energy that is carbon neutral from water. We anticipate Kinetic 7 will be 80% cheaper than current energy supplies.
“This will not only help solve the global gas and energy crisis, but the innovation will allow countries and global economies to maintain stability in the energy sector, reduce costs and maintain security of supply.”-- TradeArabia News Service
