Dish/Engine System R&D Performing Organization: Sandia National Laboratories Key Technical Contacts: Chuck Andraka (Primary Contact), 505-844-8573, ceandra@sandia.gov Tom Mancini, 505-844-8643, trmanci@sandia.gov DOE HQ Technology Manager: Thomas Rueckert, 202-586-0942, Thomas.Rueckert@hq.doe.gov FY 2004 Budget: $900K _____________________________________________________________________________________ Objectives • Perform R&D on dish/engine components and systems. • Increase the reliability and reduce the cost of dish/engine components and systems. • Support industry in its commercialization and deployment efforts. • Support Stirling Energy Systems in its efforts to commercialize a 25-kW dish/Stirling system. • Install and start testing of the first next-generation 25-kW dish/Stirling system. • Develop a performance baseline for the next-generation system. Accomplishments • Co-location of 12 Stirling Energy Systems (SES) engineering and technical staff at the National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) in Albuquerque, NM. • Design, fabrication and installation of the first next-generation, 25-kW SES dish/Stirling system. • Initial operation of next-generation system and start of performance monitoring. Future Directions In FY 2005, the focus of the dish/engine activity is the continued support of SES at the NSTTF. Activities will include the following: • Install a six-dish system, mini power plant. • Establish field-operating parameters and develop systems control approaches. • Measure and define baseline system performance. _____________________________________________________________________________________ 1. Introduction Stirling Energy Systems (SES) of Phoenix, AZ, is pursuing an aggressive development and deployment schedule for its 25-kW dish/Stirling system, which is aimed at bulk power generation markets. The SES hardware is based on the well- established McDonnell Douglas (MDC) design, which dates from the 1980s, with refinements for reducing manufacturing costs. SES is working closely with SNL's engineering team to utilize their well-established design and operational experience and to maximize the possibility of success. This year SES deployed a first prototype of the upgraded system design at SNL's National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) in Albuquerque, NM. SES has a significant engineering presence at SNL in order to enhance technology transfer and facilitate support. SNL engineers provided critical development support to resolve structural and optical issues with the prototype dish, resulting in the successful operation of the system within SES's aggressive schedule. The successful operation of the first new dish led to the start of manufacture of five more units, which will also to be installed at SNL. These will form a "mini- power plant," scheduled for operation in 2005, forPDF Image | FY 2004 ANNUAL REPORT DOE Solar

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
