We present an electro-transmutation (ET) method of water purification using the Quantum Kinetic Fusor™. Electrolysis experiments were performed with residential well water and seawater coupled with two different electrode materials—stainless steel and aluminum—to test the effectiveness of ET in removing contaminants and altering the physiochemistry (e.g., pH, alkalinity) and isotopic composition of water. ET effectively removed contaminants at power inputs as low 0.142 mA cm−2, i.e., 1.9–4.2 watts, which is substantially lower than other electrochemical techniques. The ET process also reduces, and in some cases eliminates, electrode surface area degradation. This outcome is outside the field of traditional Faraday electrolysis, further distinguishing the ET process as potentially more cost-effective than other water purification methods. Importantly, the experiments reveal ET is an exceptionally low input energy generator. This finding is based on the presence of exotic x-rays (Bremsstrahlung) emissions during operation (1–20 KeV).

一种用于水净化的谐振电物理嬗变方法

我们提出了一种使用 Quantum Kinetic Fusor™ 进行水净化的电嬗变 (ET) 方法。使用住宅井水和海水以及两种不同的电极材料(不锈钢和铝)进行电解实验,以测试 ET 在去除污染物和改变水的物理化学(例如,pH、碱度)和同位素组成方面的有效性。ET 有效去除电源输入处的污染物,低至 0.142 mA cm -2,即 1.9-4.2 瓦,这大大低于其他电化学技术。ET 工艺还减少并且在某些情况下消除了电极表面积退化。这一结果超出了传统法拉第电解的领域,进一步表明 ET 工艺可能比其他水净化方法更具成本效益。重要的是,实验表明 ET 是一种输入能量极低的发电机。这一发现是基于在运行期间 (1–20 KeV) 存在外来 X 射线(轫致辐射)发射。
