| 40 years as Research Physicist at the Naval Research Laboratory, the last 20 as branch Head of Materials & Sensors Branch. 5 years as Director of the Sidney Kimmel Institute for Nuclear Renaissance (SKINR), ending in Jan. 2018. Presently, consultant to the Medical School, University of Missouri. Present project is investigation of the Havana Syndrome with the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, VA and NRL. We irradiate brain axons with pulsed microwaves. I have a Ph.D. in Nuclear Physics but spent most of my career in Material Science. I have published papers on the Anomalous Heat Effect (AHE) since 2005 and have extensive experience both experimental and theoretical in AHE. In the field I have collaborated with Vittorio Violante's group at ENEA and worked there often. I worked on AHE at NRL along with David Knies, Dawn Dominguez and David Kidwell. I have published about 25 papers in the field, 5 as first author. Presently I am without a laboratory but am available for collaboration and consultation. I have observed the AHE at ENEA, NRL, SKINR and a private company. I am sure the AHE is a real effect that can potentially be a new energy source. I submitted an abstract to ICCF24 entitled, "Microscopic Insights into the Anomalous Heat Effect that Unify Disparate Experimental Results". I believe my knowledge of the AHE can help most experimental programs. |

| Background
Current CO2 plants are stationary, expensive, capture less than 4,000 metric tons/year for $1,000/ton. The world needs a more efficient technology that captures 5 million metric tons of CO2/year and drives down cost by 4X-5X.
Interest
Fentome Corp. aims to do early-stage R&D, develop an autonomous electric VTOL Air Ship with zero emission, captures 5 million metric tons of CO2/year, potentially reduce cost to $150-$200/metric ton, operates 24/7, 365 days/year. The ship contains all equipment & controls, flies 400mph from New York to California capturing CO2 from the air. The ship harvests solar and wind energy and recharges its electric batteries as it travels. The ship flies slowly in areas of high CO2 concentrations and hovers over oil wells & refineries, coal & methane power plants while capturing CO2. After tanks are full, it delivers the CO2 to a government facility for long-term storage or to a conversion facility.
Objective:
• Do experiments, proof of concept, empirical analysis
• Build Prototype Air Ship controlled by human pilot
• Build automated demonstration unit
• Commercialize automated Air Ship
• Create IPs in parallel as our technology develops

Building Efficiency
| Interval Data Systems, Inc. (IDS) is an enterprise energy management company founded more than 18 years ago serving the K-12, higher ed and life sciences market to provide building automation services Our singular focus as a company is to assure that buildings operate consistent with design intent for the life of the building. To meet this goal, IDS developed the Smart Building Assurance Program ( SBAP), comprised of a continuum of services and technology that span schematic design, design development, construction, warranty and ongoing monitoring to assure the building operates as intended.
Our expertise in Sequences of Operation (SOO) and controls programming serve the design and construction phase, while our energy management and analytics platform, EnergyWitnessâ„¢, serves warranty phases. (We make sure the software that runs you buildings work).
We offer these specialized services as we have observed very few buildings operate consistent with design intent (even as commissioned or LEED certified). We make extensive use of operating data from the buildings’s meters and HVAC system. We have discovered after tens of thousands of hours of analysis is that 80% of the operational issues - that cause energy waste and excessive maintenance are unintentionally created during design and construction phases only to show up after building acceptance.
There are two technical disciplines where operational issues are introduced: first, with the engineers’s Sequences of Operation and secondly, with the implementation by the control contractor. A third flaw, responsible for built-in operational deficiencies is a contractual one - the warranty. Warranties are typically for equipment breakage, not for conformance to operational requirements. This flaw results in preventing the owner from having leverage to address the shortcomings in building operation.
Finally, there’s an overarching business reality to recognize; no one party has the the obligation to deliver the building that operates consistent with design intent. You have an OPM, designer, MEP, commissioning agent and construction manager all with various levels of responsibility in delivering the building’s performance, but no one owns that responsibility.
Our implementation at the Commonwealth of Kentucky demonstrates our capability and the need to ScaleUp - http://kyenergydashboard.ky.gov/
There is no comparable in the marketplace to our approach and would welcome the opportunities to team. |

| COVID + Climate Crises = Better Data Centers
History has shown that crises accelerate innovation. The COVID crisis created a data center crisis -increased for ITE growth, amidst restrictions in job-site labor and supply chain challenges. Addressing this global crises requires open collaboration, advancements in off-site construction and BIM precision, and ITE solution advancement – concepts that have been progressing for decades but accelerated in the past two years. Concurrent with COVID, the climate crisis is driving sustainability to be top priority. The launch of Wyoming HyperScale White Box provides a case study on innovation acceleration amidst crises.
From the dual crises of COVID and climate change, Trenton Thornock saw opportunity to contribute to the data center industry. Coincidentally, in 2020 OpenComputeProject launched the Advanced Cooling Facilities subproject – a global, collaborative effort to advance deployment of liquid cooled ITE, with key focus on sharing best practices, advancement of BIM based reference designs and optimization of offsite prefab. Trenton launched his vision- the Wyoming Hyperscale WhiteBox, fully employing many of the construction and sustainability concepts shared at OCP (as well as employing several key OCP contributors)
Discussion Highlights:
• 30 MW Immersion cooled HyperScale data center
• Maximized use of VDC to reduce job site labor requirements, simplify assembly in COVID protocol environment
o Full offsite testing
o 170+ skid delivery
o Accelerated onsite assembly and commissioning
• Maximized innovation of sustainability in energy management |

| Per the World Bank, the world currently flares 3.25 trillion cubic feet of natural gas per year. Trillions of cubic feet of natural gas are stranded in remote harsh environments world-wide. Due to the small, individual quantities and /or remote environments, this flared, stranded, vented, or waste natural gas is incredibly challenging to collect, process, and commercialize.
The principals of Cyanh3 have over 30 years experience in Offshore Oil & Gas. We have worked in places such as Brazil, Mexico, Nigeria where significant quantities of gas are wasted /flared.
Cyanh3 has developed a Gas to Ammonia concept for monetizing off-shore flaring, thus reducing Green-House Gas emissions. We understand through conversations with RTI and UMN that Arapa-E is interested in reducing the size of Green Ammonia solutions. We believe those technologies could also help reduce the size of Blue Ammonia concepts.
We we are seeking funding to leverage Arpa-E investments in Green Ammonia to large scale Cyan Ammonia. We refer to Cyan Ammonia as gathering waste /flared /stranded gas and converting it to Ammonia, which is then used to displace Heavy Fuel Oil consumed by the Marine Industry, resulting in a net reduction in GHG. |

To further the development of energy efficient integrated photonic networking technologies for datacenters and high performance computing (HPC), we propose to revolutionize chip-to-chip interconnects with massively parallel photonic channels based on photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology and spatial division multiplexing (SDM) through multi core fibers (MCF). Emphasizing the number of cores per MCF for scaling allows for maintaining the Baud rate, number of fibers, and number of WDM channels at levels strategically designated to minimize complexity and power consumption. This effort investigated link modules that scale to 10 Tbps and beyond, while leveraging partnerships and technology that lend themselves to technology transition, manufacturability, and ultimately differentiated access of a unique and high-performance integrated photonics ecosystem for use by the Department of Energy (DOE) and other government entities. |
