AVIATION FUEL Magnesium hydride slurry:
A potential net-zero carbon dioxide emitting aviation fuel
A potential sustainable aviation fuel that could also absorb airborne carbon dioxide is magnesium hydride (
MgH2), which combusts to release magnesium oxide (MgO) and water. The MgO can react with CO2 and water in the engine plume or atmosphere to form magnesium carbonate (MgCO
3), or magnesium bicarbonate (Mg(HCO
3)
2). This work describes initial results of a study to determine the potential of a slurry consisting of MgH
2 and an appropriate surrogate hydrocarbon jet fuel.

Recouping the MgO to reuse and make more Hydride jet fuel.
It would take remodelling the eqaust ports whereas jet planes
eqaust would capture the MgO in a - dropout - phase container.
Planes would have near same fuel weight at take off....and landing
at destination.
Key Feature ?
It would be a renewable fuel.
Used over and over converting the MgO to Mg Hydride.
Question becomes ?
Can Jared and a Geo sell our Driftwood based on Jet Fuel purposing ?
Renewable Fuel ?
This is becoming real stale.
All i'm seeing is GC used as a carrot, while key assets are axed.
Investors aren't stupid.
Driftwood was mentioned in last press along with, GC.
To hell with Fran.... let's see a revised press with insight on
Tillicum, Purlucid.
Or... , teamed with a Jet Fuel company that
understands MgO jet fuel instead of the usual lame University route
that most often never goes anywhere with tech. ( Canada )
By the way...
i have yet to come across any Mg aviation papers
describing the recapture of MgO eqaust to be reused.
Wango, idea.
