Gold from Cold Fusion

GOLD

I saw this post about making Gold from Cold Fusion:

I think the name is Dekalion . You can buy a unit for < $3000 to make heat and electricity for your home,while being disconnected from the Power Grid (never pay Gas &Electric again.) At the same time, special units produce Gold metal as a biproduct of fusion of Pt 196 with a single proton. The fusion of Copper and Cesium with a Pt metal electrode gives Gold 197 too plus enough heat from nowhere to power a steam engine to drive any size turbine to make electricity for your house or business.Ther's no radiation, no xrays, no uv rays, no gamma rays, no pollutants like from burning fossil fuels :just heat, helium, gold, and Palladium too. The Gold produced by the Countrys, populace will soon make gold as common as Iron Metal. Imagine 200 million people making small amounts of gold every day. What do you ATS Readers think? Read about Rossi's invention in Italy using Ni. China can field 200 million troops overnight.

Defkalion is the name of the company. Andrea Rossi claims they have ripped off his e-Cat. See PESN.com for all the information regarding these two groups of people and their efforts.

If it were possible to make gold through cold fusion while producing excess energy, that would certainly drive more experimenters to be interested in cold fusion.

That deukalion company is sketchy you should have done a background check before posting links they had a deal with rossi and then he ditched them.

It seems there are some folks producing power with cold fusion.

'Seems' being the operative word.

I can't believe people still talk about Rossi. Even the e-catworld.com webmaster expressed his doubts after numerous delays and excuses--like Keshe, a classic FE scam. Hopefully, the Swedes have learned their lesson after featuring him on TV. Here's a comment from e-catworld.com's admin:

While skeptics will point out that no proof of the E-Cat’s validity was presented, to me the show provides more evidence that Rossi is actually doing what he says he is doing — building working devices to be used in industry. The claim that he is a hoaxer, crazy or simply deluded does not make sense to me. To me, he appears to be a serious inventor and industrialist at work on a new technology.

'Appears' being the operative word. Believing is seeing!

I'm not saying LENR is impossible--cold fusion research looks promising but if Rossi figured out how to make it competitive with other energy sources, it would be mainstream news. The only news you'll find about Rossi is on PESN news--FE's very own tabloid journalism.

Edit: Re: GOLD!?!?!? With all that gold, I guess it's goodbye austerity for the Greeks and Italians now. You can tell when a scam is about to end: the claims become more and more exaggerated.

Rossi

All truth passes through three stages.

First, it is ridiculed.

Second, it is violently opposed.

Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Arthur Schopenhauer.

We're probably between stage one and stage two right now.

I like the term Cold Fusion. I don't really care for the term LENR. I see it as an attempt by quackademia to appropriate what they tried to discredit mockingly with the term Cold Fusion.

As far as I'm concerned, any information on the subject of Cold Fusion adds to our knowledge base.

Members of quackademia are only concerned about keeping their rice bowls; neither do they want their apple carts to be overturned.

Forty billion taxpayer dollars wasted on tokamak reactor research with not even one watt of extra energy produced.

Francesco Piantelli

Is a new leader emerging in Nickel Hydrogen Cold Fusion?

Francesco Piantelli has been granted a European patent for his nickel hydrogen low energy nuclear reaction (LENR) process. The patent EP 2 368 252 B1 could present major problems for Andrea Rossi’s Leonardo Corporation and Defkalion both of which are trying to patent similar nickel hydrogen LENR processes.

Reality yes/no?

Cold fusion devices produce far more energy than they use; quickly approaching commercial viability

Quickly?!?! Rossi's been on PESN's Top 5 Closest-to-Market list for years...AND NOTHING's SHIPPING!!!!:

One Full Year of Andrea Rossi's E-Cat - Since the start of 2011, PESN has been covering the emergence, testing, and commercialization of Andrea Rossi's E-Cat (Energy Catalyzer) technology. As 2012 approaches, it is clear that nickel-hydrogen cold fusion technology is going to change the world, as the production of a million E-Cat home units is planned. (PESN and BeforeItsNews; December 30, 2011)

This is a classic scam tactic to secure investment money. Oh, and he plans to give half of his fortune to cancer research. Ask yourself--why no mainstream media attention for this?

BTW: Did you look at the date of that article you quoted?:
Cold fusion devices produce far more energy than they use; quickly approaching commercial viability
Tuesday, July 05, 2011 by: Daniel Erickson

This is from Wikipedia (but believe what you will):

Typically during demonstrations the device was covered up.[43] The device was not independently verified. Invited guests attended several demonstrations in Bologna in 2011.[16][44][45] Of a January demonstration, Discovery Channel analyst Benjamin Radford wrote that "If this all sounds fishy to you, it should," and that "In many ways cold fusion is similar to perpetual motion machines. The principles defy the laws of physics, but that doesn't stop people from periodically claiming to have invented or discovered one."[46] According to PhysOrg (11 August 2011), the demonstrations held from January to April 2011 had several flaws that compromised their credibility and Rossi had refused to perform tests that could verify his claims.[2]

The six published demonstrations from December 2010 to July 2011 might contain a crucial flaw, according to Australian researcher and skeptic Ian Bryce, who was investigating for entrepreneur Dick Smith. He believes that the E-cat is misconnected, and that the power attributed to fusion is supplied to the device through the earth wire. He noted that the misconnection could have been inadvertent.[47][48] Dick Smith offered Rossi one million dollars to demonstrate that the E-Cat system worked as claimed, while the power through the earth wire was also being measured, which Rossi refused.[49][50] Peter Thieberger, a senior physicist at Brookhaven National Laboratory, said it would be very difficult for this misconnection to happen by accident and that the issue could only be cleared with a fully independent test.[47]

Another demonstration on 6 October 2011 reportedly lasted for about eight hours.[51][52][53] Roland Pettersson, retired Associate Professor from the University of Uppsala, who witnessed it said "I'm convinced that this works, but there is still room for more measurements".[29]

On 28 October 2011 the unit was "customer tested" and was said to release 2,635 kWh during five and a half hours of self-sustained mode, an average power of 479 kilowatts – just under half the promised power of one megawatt. Independent observers were not allowed to watch the measurements or make their own, and the plant remained connected to a power supply during the test allegedly to supply power to the fans and the water pumps.[54][55][56][57]
[edit]Commercial plans

Originally, a new Greek company, Defkalion, was to deliver a heating plant based on the Energy Catalyzer, but this deal was terminated.[58][59] Since then Defkalion have announced that they plan to make a similar device.[60][61] In 2012 an Italian company, Prometeon Srl,[62] became the official Italian licensee for the Energy Catalyzer.[63]

Ecat.com is a website for taking pre-orders for the device, run by four Swedish entrepreneurs, two of them particle physicists. One of the physicists, Magnus Holm, in response to suggestions that he was "contributing to fraud" replied "We are not engaged in any deception, and I do not think Rossi is engaged in any fraud either. If it would turn out that it does not work, in spite of everything, I would think it is about self-deception."[15] In September 2012 they pulled out from investing in a new version of the E-Cat, a prototype high temperature reactor, after a test by the SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden failed to demonstrate excess output energy because there was more input energy than measured by Rossi. Holm says that they are still interested in investing in the 1MW version, which they intend to validate separately.[64]

More information from Piantelli...

Valerio Ciampoli, an executive of Nichenergy, the company formed to market and support the cold fusion/LENR work of Prof. Francesco Piantelli, gives an overview of the research being done at that company. Prof, Piantelli was supposed to give this presentation but was unable to make the presentation because of unspecified personal issues.

yeah, it's not the first scam he's tried to run, either. The only thing is that this time, he actually had a lot of people sending money.
