Key Research Words: mass spectrometer, mass spectronomy, ion implanter, semiconductor manufacturing, semiconductor capital equipment, analyzer magnet, ion sources, plasma sources, Laser Fusion, magnetron, Faraday Cup, Faraday, Tesla, Varian Brothers, Westinghouse Family History, Maxwell's Field Theory, and simple Physics.

For over 600 years the world's best Scientists, Chemists, Physicists, and Alchemists have been searching for a Universal Solvent; something that they could use to dissolve anything, so it could reconstituted into anything else they might need; like Gold, or Diamonds, or Fresh Water, or Hydrogen, even Oxygen: The Ultimate Trick of Material Science.

Although it is not a liquid, there is already a solution available for this.

It is possible to build a Spectrum Analyzer the size of Ion Implanter and collect pure Hydrogen, Oxygen, Carbon, and other trace elements from plastic bottles as well as all other 'post-consumer wastes'. In essence, a single plastic bottle has enough oxygen and hydrogen bound-up in long-chain plastic molecules to supply the average consumer with about 1500 watts of heat, electricity, and a pint of hot water from their Household Fuel Cell each morning.

Using well-known technologies from both the Mass Spectrum Analysis Industry and the Semiconductor Industry, we could already be building these machines. We could be dissolving old computers, toxic wastes, and Super Fund Sites for precious raw materials in pure elemental form before strip-mining more fresh Land for smelting with yet more air polluting coal.

This is not about Science, this is about Priorities.

The secret to a Universal Solvent is Temperature. Every Atom, Chemical, and Element known on Earth has a Melting Temperature, an Evaporation Temperature, an Ionization Temperature, an Eichner Frequency, and an Ionization Potential. These five principles can be used in conjunction with proper machine timing to melt, evaporate, ionize, sort by atomic weight, and recycle a wide variety of toxic materials, chemicals, solvents, plastics, and raw elements currently used in Hi-Tech Manufacturing today; --in a similar way that these toxic Computer Chips are made in the first place.

There are four basic machine configurations to start working with; a description of each follows below. More detailed drawings and engineering specs will be published in the months to come. In the meantime, consider starting your own newsletters on the subject.

1) KNOWN MATERIALS MACHINE.
2) GENERAL PURPOSE MACHINE FOR LAND WASTE RECOVERY.
3) HEAVY LIQUIDS IONIZATION COLUMN.
4) INDUCTIVE CENTRIFUGE MACHINE.

1) KNOWN MATERIALS MACHINE.
This is the easiest machine to design and is specifically suited to work on a particular semiconductor manufacturing floor, where the all materials used on the floor are known and quantified on a daily basis. It is useful for returning defective products and test materials back into the manufacturing process before they ever leave the factory.
The basic idea is to expand the "sorting capability" of the average Ion Implanter. Using a long Analyzer Magnet as a "pre-sorter" you can shift the mass of lighter ions to the inside curve and the heavier ions to the outside, then a series of smaller, more specific Analyzer Magnets can sort the different materials at a finer level into the various Collection Chambers.
It's important to return the electrons from the Combustion Faraday Cup in the right proportions to the different Collection Chambers to cancel the Ionic Motion. This provides far more efficient collection of the Rare Earth Elements and their isotopes; like Arsenic, Boron, Cobalt, Gallium, Lead, Mercury, Nickel, Copper, Iron, Oxygen, Tin, Aluminum, and Gold; that are used 24 hours a day in the production of semiconductor based products.

The earliest prototype machines of this type should be able to reach at least 99.998% purity of separation easily and can be designed and built in about 3 years with standard components.

There are basically two types of Collection Chambers:
1) Re-Changeable Cryo-Heads for solid materials, and,
2) Two-Stage Turbo Pump-Down Canisters for gases and liquids.

The physical floor space for this type of machinery is likely to be fairly large, but it needs little or no Clean Room considerations, just a solid, stable foundation.

Drawings to follow.

2) GENERAL PURPOSE MACHINE FOR LAND WASTE RECOVERY.
This one is the most important. This type of machinery should be trucked into all Super Fund Sites and used to literally 'mine' these toxic waste dumps for raw elements needed in the hi-tech manufacturing sector for next year's products. This solves three very important problems at once; 1. we can completely clean up these horrific toxic land-spills; 2. supply the Hi-Tech Manufacturing Industry with the refined elements it needs; and, 3. most important of all, we never have to strip-mine the Earth for raw materials again. We have already dug up enough materials from Mother Earth for all of Humanity. Just start strip-mining the toxic landfills and overflowing trash dumps for the necessary hi-tech raw materials.

Ideally, this design requires a two-story building; the upper floor is a column that processes the lighter volatiles and plastic out-gases, and the lower floor processes the more solid materials and heavy metals similar to the KNOWN MATERIALS MACHINE described above.

By using Ionization Potential to sort the volatile gases. Certain chemicals will "light-up" at a certain voltage potentials . Once ionized between a pair of screens, different gases can be shifted sideways at different heights in the column with either small magnet assemblies or more high voltage Extraction Plates. Again, close attention to the reverse electron flow is necessary for the pure collection of these ionized particles.

Drawings to follow.

3) HEAVY LIQUIDS IONIZATION COLUMN.
This is a much more sophisticated version Ionization Column described above. It combines many of the standard practices of an Oil Refractory Tower. But, if done properly, it can reduce a barrel of Crude Oil into pure Hydrogen and pure Oxygen, (both of which are needed in common Fuel Cells), also, pure Carbon to make fibers for Filters, Carbon Micro-Tubules, Hi-Tech Composite Structures, or Industrial Diamonds for that matter. Therte will also be a bit of left-over Sulfur and other trace elements. This machine can process a wider variety of heavy liquids, waste oils, and biohazard materials faster, cheaper, for half the energy, and one tenth the real estate than existing Oil Refineries.

I'm not advocating more Oil Drilling, but this is the best way to turn a barrel of Crude Oil, or any other toxic Organic Chemical(s), into pure, non-polluting energy for Fuel Cells. We need to start recovering both Oxygen and Hydrogen immediately to make Fresh Water with Fuel Cells from the wide variety Solvents, Oils, Plastics, and Post-Consumer Waste Products; --most of which have been created by/for the Automobile Industry in the first place.

This machine can provide the best foundation for a smooth transition into a "Hydrogen Economy". It is crucial to recover the Oxygen as well; it's just as important as Hydrogen in the H₂O Fuel Cell Process for recovering the purest Water and maintaining the longest lasting Fuel Cells. In fact, using both purified Oxygen and purified Hydrogen together are crucial in sustaining a long term Fuel Cell Economy.

Keep in mind, an H₂O Fuel Cell can suck as much Oxygen from the air you need to breath as a 'large-block V8' engine; like that found in most S.U.V.'s and trucks. Yes, there is no pollution in the room, but there's also no air to breath either....

With the extensive amounts of clear-cutting the redwood/pine forests and deforestation of the Rain Forests world-wide, the Oxygen re-generating systems of the Planet are seriously compramised; we don't need to use up the rest of it making "clean energy".
Recycling Oxygen from plastics and other post-consumer wastes is just as crucial as recycling Hydrogen.

4) INDUCTIVE CENTRIFUGE MACHINE.
This is used strictly for sorting Heavy Metals. This machine is similar, but somewhat larger than the "G-Force" machines used to test how flabby astronauts' cheeks get before their bodies turn to mush.

It consists of four large, balanced, spinning ceramic crucibles with inductive properties. These crucibles spin past powerful magnets and use the Eddy Currents involved to heat the material to just past melting temperature. This can be controlled with the speed; the faster this centrifuge goes around, the hotter things get. And, at those forces, it would be easy to separate many different metals from each other without using any more toxic solvent chemistry.

The second step is to turn off the magnets while everything is still spinning, letting it cool and solidify in place.

The third step is to drop these hot "layered slugs" into large vats of Liquid Nitrogen and let the different Coefficients of Thermal Expansions snap the various metals apart into separate disks. With additional thermal shocks, you may be able to powderize these disks as well.

5) RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS DISCLAIMER.
None of this Equipment is designed for, or to be used with anything Radioactive, or anything involved in processing Post Nuclear Waste.

We have our own Architectural Contribution to the 50,000 Year Nuclear Warning Awards. We call it the "Great Wall of Albuquerque".

Let us describe it briefly: This is large circular structure, over 100 miles in diameter, that surrounds the Los Alamos Research Facility. It is 500 ft. high and 50 ft. thick made of leaded, tempered glass in the shape of a blast-shield facing inward. Any and all radioactive and nuclear waste materials should be simply thrown over the wall and left there forever. Anyone interested in playing with it, anyone who has access to it, and anyone else who wants to figure out how to store these deadliest materials known to Mankind should be thrown over the wall too. And in 50,000 years it will be completely self-evident what went wrong. No language needed.

Drawings to follow.

These Plans as described above for Universal Solvent Machinery Systems, which are critically needed to clean up our overly polluted & toxic Planet and transition quickly into an H₂O Fuel Cell Economy, are being published as both Public Domain and Open Source. Legally this means there are absolutely no Copyrights, no Patentable Material, and no Intellectual Property Rights available; furthermore, all improvements on any of the above information must be publicly published freely to everyone in all related Industries under these same conditions.

This information is far too critical to waste any time in the Intellectual Property Courts fighting over who thought of what first. Just start building this machinery and dissolving all the Super Fund Sites, Toxic Land Fills, and Obsolete Computers for pure Hydrogen, Oxygen, Carbon, Silicon, Gold, and other precious raw materials before strip-mining any more fresh Land.
