**Interview:** Cell now ready for existing cars There was an urgency in Stan Meyer's voice, booming into the **raum&zeit** office on Sept. 7, 1990. Chrystyne Jackson had switched on the intercom and Jeane Manning took notes. "We're finalizing pre-engineering of the (hydrogen-powered) car... to head off the Mideast crisis, Meyer said. If a war starts and chemical weapons are used, he added, oil from the Mideast could be contaminated. Pressure in oil wells internationally is dropping, so even without a war, "we have less than 15 years' supply of oil coming out of the Mideast." The economic base of the world would collapse quickly, if no new source of fuel replaces oil, he added. Therefore a massive international program-similar to the Manhattan Project in level of priority accorded it is needed to develop a hydrogen-based economy. Meyer referred to the Swiss Association for Free Energy conference last year, where he was a guest speaker. When he listened to scientists there talk about alternative energy possibilities, he was shocked. There was apparently no systems engineering approach, other than his water fuel cell. The final patent for his water fuel cell technology - the patent on the electrical polarization process-has now been completed. Pre-engineering is "85 percent finalized", and he planned to run his dune buggy powered by the water fuel cell in the November 1990 solar race in Australia. His technology is to be unveiled to representatives of 176 nations this fall in Sweden. Much information needs to be communicated. Most people think of hydrogen as a volatile fuel. However, Meyer's process "renders hydrogen safer than natural gas". Following is a memo from Stanley A. Meyer (of Grove City, Ohio), describing his Quenching Circuit Technology, He explains that this technology breakthrough allows the water fuel cell technology to be retrofitted to an existing engine without engine change! | --- ##### Quenching Circuit Technology --- The quenching circuit technology is an combination and integration of several Gas-Processes that uses noncombustible gases to render hydrogen safer than natural gas. The "Non-Burnable" gases are used to adjust hydrogen "Burn-Rate" to Fuel- Gas burning levels... recycled to stabilize Gas-Flame temperatures... inter- mixed to sustain and maintain a hydrogen Gas-Flame... and used to prevent Spark-Ignition of supply gases, The utilization and recycling of the non-combustible gases allows the Water Fuel Cell to become a Retrofit Energy System. The Quenching Circuit Technology is systematically activated and performed In the following way. Data Reference: WFC Tech-Brief Method: Using Non Combustible Gases to render Hydrogen safer than Natural Gas --- ##### Operational Parameters --- **Spark Ignition Tube** Spark-Ignition Tube (b) is a tubular test apparatus (1/8 diameter) that deter mines and measures the "Bum-Rate" of different types of Burnable Gases intermixed with Ambient Air, as illustrated in Figure 1.1 |
