Breakthrough System Promises Low Cost Electricity

Breakthrough System Promises Low Cost Electricity ENERGY Alternative Fuels A promising breakthrough in the search for low cost electrical power for farms and ranches is slated for commercial introduction this summer by Redel Research and Development headquartered at Temple Texas The revolutionary self-contained system is designed to produce 1 500 kilowatt hours of electricity per month at a cost of only 50` What s more it can be built for double the output with the same operating cost of only 50` per month Specific details on manufacturing and marketing the revolutionary system are expected to be announced in a month or two Meanwhile FARM SHOW has learned that the selfcontained system a farmer or rancher would buy will cost in the neighborhood of about $1 200 for the component parts but not including installation costs The system uses a continuous cycle of water to create electricity and has three main parts- a pump tower and turbine It operates on the weight and pressure of water The force of water activates the pump with recycled water serving as the fuel supply The self-contained 18 hp pump raises water to a small tower which has a small tank on top about the size of a small television set Gravity flow carries water through a pipe across a turbine and back to a ground tank where Burke s self-contained pump again pushes the water to the tower tank Increasing size of the pump can double the system s output from 1500 to 3000 kilowatt hours of electricity per month The entire system occupies no more than 36 sq ft of space Self-contained systems can be used in multiple to provide as much power as a farmer or a rancher needs for his particular operation You would be able to use existing electric motors wiring etc without having to do any retooling In addition to supplying electricity for use in the home and around the headquarters area the self-contained power system can be used in remote areas to power irrigation systems or any other farm equipment that uses electricity Here again the operating cost would only be about 50 a month That s what I figure the oil for the bearings will cost says Burke and you won t have to start oiling them until the first 9 to 12 months are up More good news is that component parts of the selfcontained power system are expected to last 20 years or longer Mid American Dairymen Inc headquartered at Springfield Mo has purchased stock in Burke s company Mid-Am s 24 man Board of Directors voted unanimously to invest in the project after a 7 month study of Burke s work according to Joe Grant director of engineering services Burke s inventions and concepts are new and quite a bit advanced of our time We decided to work with him because we saw great potential in the inventions and concepts he has already worked out His work is really a combination of known laws of physics and some unique innovations We see opportunities in his work to use energy in different ways and to tap some unused sources of energy He has done away with some of the limitations we have had in the past The possibilities for this new system are tremendous says Larry Everett president of Redel and a partner of Arnold Burke inventor and developer of the new system for generating low cost power for farms and ranches In addition to his system for generating low cost electrical power Burke has triggered world-wide attention with still another of his inventions -a 94 hp prototype engine that has no intake and no exhaust Instead it has a recycling system which allows the engine to use its original fuel supply over and over again The prototype set up on a Ford transmission runs with a quiet steady hissing sound and has been in research and development for about 5 years Although it s a V8 with pistons a drive shaft and a series of fuel lines it operates completely different than conventional internal combustion engines For example it uses no gasoline or other fossil fuel Instead a 50-50 mixture of oxygen and nitrogen is mixed with small amounts of a synthetic catalyst which Burke also invented to cause rapid expansion Force fr
