March 27, 2002—Internal Command International, Inc., an alternative energy engineering firm, will be displaying its new scalable fluid flow pressure technology on April 5, 2002 in Tampa, Florida. The company will present the technology which creates electrical energy in large kilowatt range and air pressure for storage and use in a multitude of industries, and for elevator safety use, to selected companies in various industries such as oil refining, elevator manufacturing, steel production, generator makers and control systems.
ICI’s technology converts any liquid flow pressure into mechanical and electrical energy with an 80% efficiency. The valve technology produces energy from available flow pressure of water used in industry, agriculture, natural flow or municipalities, turning it into power by use of the unique valve system, with the water flow continuing on its way with no significant loss of flow pressure.
The system creates mechanical force from the flow, which is turned into electrical current and can simultaneously create air pressure, both of which can be stored or used.
“Whatever flow is available, the system can be made to take advantage of it, create energy for savings or emergency use,” says ICI President Craig Huffman. “The available power ranges from 500 watts to thousands of kilowatts. If a company has available flow pressure, this technology will capitalize on it, saving electrical costs and creating energy return.”
Other uses of this valve technology include precise liquid volume measurement, for such uses as industrial measurement, chemical production, water use measurement or beverage dispensing measurement.
Another potential application researched by ICI is using the technology to power elevators using fire hose/suppression water pressure, Huffman said. “This would address the need, especially in high-rise buildings, for people to use stairs instead of elevators during a fire, when all power is cut to the building. Whoever joins with us and develops this aspect of the technology will be leaps and bounds ahead of their competitors.”
Companies wishing to attend the April 5, 2002 presentation and discussions should contact ICI by e-mail.
