The selected projects represent a variety of technologies, including diesel efficiency, energy storage and river
hydrokinetics.
Other ASME articles on
hydrokinetics also may be found on the ASME Energy Forum page, as can links to registration for upcoming events.
In contrast with politically sensitive and capital-intensive hydro-electric dams,
hydrokinetics does not require disturbing the flow of river or causing major dislocations of habitat for the creation of water reservoirs.
AIMM Technologies'
Hydrokinetics cleaning process, for the clearing and cleaning of fouled interiors of tubes, pipes and lines is based in the induction of "sonic resonance" into the cleaning water stream or medium.
When compared with other possible laser methods,
HydroKinetics is expected to provide more effective cutting and removal of tissue without thermal damage, char or potentially harmful smoke.
It's pretty clear that river
hydrokinetics provides a steady, continuous, and predictable renewable energy source.
This kind of notice is starting to bring the technology of
hydrokinetics out from the shadows of wind turbines and solar panels.
Looking at the economics of it, we are stretched pretty tightly," he said, echoing his peers regarding the tangible savings that can result from investigating and refining the proposed
hydrokinetics under consideration and studying proposed green projects in this country as well as those in other parts of the globe.
Renewable Energy: Focusing on the development of wind solar geothermal, biomass and hydro power generation, processing technologies for turbines, generators, PV cells, materials and manufacturing, landfill, agricultural and public treatment-based methane capture and power generation, as well as renewable energy technologies for fuel cells, tidal power and
hydrokinetics.
Patents issued in 1998 and 1999 were for Laser
Hydrokinetics (Patent No.
Hydrokinetic energy is generated by tides, waves, and currents.
FERC proclaimed its authority to license offshore
