EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Manned Multi-Generation Bioreactor

A United States Patent And Trademark Office Patent Pending status was previously granted on a new variety of electricity generating device that:

1. Does not harm the environment, but actually assists its betterment
2. Is infinitely renewable and safe
3. Is inexpensive to produce relative to output and benefits
4. Is developed from old and well-known technology using a novel approach
5. Will lead to quality-of-life improvement if implemented, locally and globally

CURRENT SITUATION

Many of the world’s problems of hunger and disease, inequality and lack of opportunity can be solved by education, improved living standards, self-sufficiency and responsible governance.

One major component, essential to the equation, is the provision of energy. It stands the test of reason that low cost, dependable, renewable energy, available locally - and on a global scale - will allow people to help themselves, rather than depending upon others to give interim help.

With enough inexpensive electrical energy, any area in the world can pump water, grow food, add lighting and other home comforts, create a better education system, develop manufacturing competitiveness and jobs, create wealth and the independence of mind that leads, by whatever path, to the democratic process.

Such development is in the best interests of the Western World because the awakening of Third World countries to the benefits of technology and democracy must eventually lead to massive and unwieldy emigration in search of a better life in the West, unless that life may be found at home. The West must, in its own defence, export technology to developing and poverty-ravished countries; so as to reap the eventual rewards of inviting great and well-nourished minds to its shores rather than continuing to export aid to a bottomless pit of unimproved neediness.

REQUIRED SOLUTION

Technological development must focus on the implementation of a low cost, highly efficient, renewable source of power, available on a local basis and applicable worldwide.

CURRENT ELECTRICAL GENERATION METHODS

Historically, energy provision relies upon five major sources:

1. Non-renewable - such as oil, coal, and natural gas
2. Hydroelectric power from dams and rivers
3. Atomic fission
4. The earth’s own geothermal energy
5. Production of methane from decomposition of natural materials - such as in sanitary landfills (garbage dumps)

Minor sources of electrical energy

• Solar cells & heaters
• Tidal kinetics
• Wind generators
• Batteries
• Waste incineration and gasification
• Static generators
• Piezoelectronics

• Atomic fusion

• Bi-Pressure funneling

With the exceptions of solar, tidal, and wind generation, there are two main problems associated with these methods

• Serious environmental damage caused directly by the method of generation
  

• The long-term expense of using up non-renewable resources

OUR SOLUTION

We have developed a timely and innovative form of efficient, powerful, low-cost, environmentally harmless electricity generation.

Comprised of novel methods of manufacturing and production, our system delivers electricity to end users via a carefully determined micro-grid. This grid utilizes one or more localized, environmentally supportive generating machines that are disaster and leak resistant and take advantage of a renewable energy source.

A machine is located underground and characterized by methane-driven engines whose completely renewable fuel source is generated and maintained by the machine itself within its novel tank farm; literally a variety of farm that utilizes methanogenic bacteria carefully cultivated for their ability to produce prodigious amounts of high-quality gas, and that consume specialized prepared feed stocks; all completely and safely contained within an interconnected tank farming system from which the methane gas is automatically harvested. The engines are used to provide motive power for generators .

Specialized and/or novel components of the machine include its construction styling, system component arrangements, automated controls for its unique fuel-supplying tank farm and other peripheral components required for efficient operation.

The following features all contribute to the uniqueness and originality of this form of electricity generation. An in-depth description is appended.

• Seismically defended housing for the overall system
• Automation and monitoring of main system components
• Additional neighborhood uses for below-ground buildings accompanying the machines
• Special guidelines for safeguarding the method of power distribution from stations to end-users
• Novel method for determining placement of single machines, either stand-alone or in grids, in urban, rural, and/or hostile environments

• Ecology-conscious installation methods
