 $23.00
SERI & Thomas B. Reed   343 pages   8.5x11 inches   978-1-60322-050-7

Summarizes the scientific, technical and commercial information that developed during World War II. While the world’s fossil liquid fuel supplies were being used to make war around the globe Sweden, cut off from fossil fuels, converted 40% of its entire motor vehicle fleet to burning wood. The gas generator for motor vehicles was developed at an astonishing speed during the war years. This work will enable anyone that is engaged in gasifier projects to build upon knowledge which the Swedes procured long ago.   This unit is all about making and putting a gasifier on the front or back of your vehicle, plus small stationary engines.

Samuel S. Wyer   300 pages   5.5x8.5 inches   978-1-60322-025-5

Provides you with the fundamental knowledge upon which any rational discussion about Hydrogen Science must be based. Contains information on the physics and applied chemistry that make up the foundation of hydrogen based energy production. This book was written by a great man named Samuel S. Wyer. We have republished his work, A Treatise on Producer-Gas and Gas-Producers as, Hydrogen Production from Organic Material by Partial Oxidation and Steam Reformation.   The emphasis of this book is the production of gas for LARGE Stationary engines.  NO emphasis in this book is on vehicles.  This book is exceptionally good on ways of handling your material (fuel), locking it in, out, feeding it.  This is for setting up a small or large power plant.

The seventh volume in the Hydrogen Generator Gas series will help you to overcome the mechanical difficulties associated with the production of generator gas from wood and coal. This great book will guide you to an in depth understanding of the gasification of coal and biomass, a valuable technology that is more than a century old, and will allow you to become thoroughly knowledgeable about the utilization of hydrogen generator gas in engine systems.  While this book covers the use of gasifiers on vehicles, it goes into more details with the chemistry, the gasses, products formed, with more graphs and charts than Vol 9 Does.  This book (Vol 7) as well as Vol 9 is a must have for any serious car gasification person.

This is a hands on step by step book. This book contains the ways that the Chinese perfected the process of making methane from organic material. The manual shows you how to dig a hole, make a brick or earth wall and then cover it for continuous production of free methane from the digesting material. This is a very low maintenance system and the Chinese had over 6 million bio digesters of this model working in the late 70’s/early 80’s. This is one beautiful system that you can build in your own backyard.  This is a system that you put in organic material and manure from animals into, it is NOT a high temp gasification system like the above books.  This is methane production from anaerobic digestion

There are things much more valuable to make by electrolysis than hydrogen (this book does cover that too). This is the founding principle of many multibillion dollar chemical companies, such as Dow Chemical. Know your chemistry and your science, and your economics.  If you are a self made fire works guy and want to make your own potassium chlorate or perchlorate...this is the book that tells you how.  Want to make your own nitric acid...that too is an electrolytic process.  Real electrolysis is for the production of chemicals that can be sold.  The above mentioned potassium chlorate is legal to sell and people buy it by the pound, and you make it from salt, water and electricity.  The book is not paint by numbers for the inept, but the descriptions and diagrams of cells are excellent

This book contains abundant information about the mass manufacture of Hydrogen Energy related gases. Including explicit details about the, chemistry and methods on the manufacture of all of the gasses important for the hydrogen revolution. Industrial gases covers Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon Dioxide, Sulfur Dioxide, Ammonia, Producer Gas, Illuminating Gas, Acetylene, Ozone etc…
Hydrogen—you know this one. Oxygen is a byproduct of H2 manufacture in some cases. Nitrogen is used with H2 to make Ammonia. Carbon Dioxide is reduced to Carbon Monoxide and combined with water to make Hydrogen. Sulfur Dioxide is used to make sulfuric acid which is a hydrogen carrier ( and ten thousand other things), Ammonia is a hydrogen carrier (and a thousand other things), Producer Gas and Illuminating gas are excellent carriers of hydrogen and are easy to make, Acetylene is a huge part of our hydrogen future and Ozone is a powerful oxidizer that can be used in other chemistry to make more H2. Anyone who thinks that these gases do not have anything to do with a Hydrogen Future has been swallowing the stupefied public mush that the media and other idiots have been pushing.

Effects of Nuclear Weapons

Glasstone and Dolan  600+pages   5.5x8.5 inches   

The classic book on the effects of Nuclear Weapons, written with extreme scientific detail, is a MUST HAVE for anyone working in Homeland Security, Emergency Services or in any other Civil Defense capacity.  With the book  you can KNOW the effects of a weapon at any distance, including blast speed, overpressure, prompt radiation, thermal radiation, fall out values and timeline, along with everything else. It can even tell you potential crater sizes. The reverse is true as well. If terrorists were to set off a nuke on the ground, measurement of the crater would indicate the yield of the weapon used. Glass windows broken at X miles away would also indicate the yield of the device with this book and the bomb computer. This book is especially important for information services that must be able to provide accurate information in the aftermath of a NUCLEAR ATTACK. If you want to know what a 5 Kiloton stolen Soviet suitcase nuke would do, this book will tell you without requiring that you know everything that nuclear scientists know. Knowledge Publications is PROUD and HAPPY to put this book back into print at the high quality that we demand of ourselves. We are also delighted to provide the Bomb Computer to our customers. The Bomb Computer comes in a kit form. You just have to cut it out and fold it. It’s really easy—does not take a nuclear scientist to do it :)   The book is a joy to read if you are a fan of military history, at one time this book was classified top secret and was not available to the public at all.

Effects of Nuclear Weapons

The classic book on the effects of Nuclear Weapons, written with extreme scientific detail, is a MUST HAVE for anyone working in Homeland Security, Emergency Services or in any other Civil Defense capacity.  With the book  you can KNOW the effects of a weapon at any distance, including blast speed, overpressure, prompt radiation, thermal radiation, fall out values and timeline, along with everything else. It can even tell you potential crater sizes. The reverse is true as well. If terrorists were to set off a nuke on the ground, measurement of the crater would indicate the yield of the weapon used. Glass windows broken at X miles away would also indicate the yield of the device with this book and the bomb computer. This book is especially important for information services that must be able to provide accurate information in the aftermath of a NUCLEAR ATTACK. If you want to know what a 5 Kiloton stolen Soviet suitcase nuke would do, this book will tell you without requiring that you know everything that nuclear scientists know. Knowledge Publications is PROUD and HAPPY to put this book back into print at the high quality that we demand of ourselves. We are also delighted to provide the Bomb Computer to our customers. The Bomb Computer comes in a kit form. You just have to cut it out and fold it. It’s really easy—does not take a nuclear scientist to do it :)   The book is a joy to read if you are a fan of military history, at one time this book was classified top secret and was not available to the public at all.

The complete report compiled from the US Department of Energy’s 18 year program to develop transportation fuels from algae. Known as the Aquatic Species Program, the study made advances in manipulating the metabolism and engineering of algae. This report contains all of the information learned from oil-producing microalgae highlighting the applied biology, algae production, and resource availability of the department of energy research. This volume is a great place to start to learn about a biological approach to fuel that can be grown in anything from a bottle to a million gallon tank.  This is NOT a paint by numbers DIY book, it is very much an overview of previous research and what worked and what did not work.  It is just one book that should be part of your algae library.
