Energy Catalyzer
Both uranium fission and hot thermonuclear fusion reactors generate fast moving (and
dangerous) neutrons which enter nuclei – producing abundant energy. Low-energy
nuclear reactors (aka cold fusion) generate slow-moving (and safe) neutrons which
also enter nuclei – again producing abundant energy.
Andrea Rossi’s energy catalyzer aka ‘E-Cat’ uses low-energy nuclear reactions to fuse
nickel and hydrogen atoms into copper. After a 32-day experiment, a prototype E-Cat’s
initial load of nickel-58/nickel-60 isotopes converted to almost entirely nickel-62. The 452-
gram E-Cat generated a net of 1.5 megawatt-hours of energy – demonstrating an energy
density of apparently as much as 1 million times gasoline’s energy density.
