For those interested....there's a guy in the UK developing a paint on coating that creates impressive voltage and he's challenging people to copy what he does and make it better so you can power your homes ...without anyone knowing so your crop has free electricity...that's why I'm posting it here...anybody up to trying to make it? He has a youtube channel if you're interested.
ive been goofing around with making carbon nanotubes. made a sodium lamp in the process by accident. i just carbonized some bast fibers in sulfuric acid and autoclaved for 24 hours. what im attempting is using an electrical arc to combust the sodium in NaOH soaked biochar. im rethinking my combustion chamber though as i need it to be inert gasses. next run im using trapped CO2.
ill likely use a jar with the lead to the arc slid into holes in the lid add a putty to seal off air. and add a small chemical reaction in the base of the jar to produce CO2 and which would escape through an airlock as it gains pressure. im avoiding using yeast to produce the CO2 since they would likely be incinerated over a few minutes.
seen q-carbon?? ferromagnetic form of diamond that is stronger than diamond and is made by melting the atoms of biochar with a powerful laser for a nanosecond. it also glows when conducting if i recall.
carbons are fun stuff
