Raise awareness of the catastrophic environmental consequences of our lifestyles and find econological and technological solutions. This is the credo of the Econologie.com site founded by Christophe Martz in 2003
This site is the fruit of the hard work of this ENSAIS engineer specializing in energy and who "encountered" the system. Pantone (process which optimizes the use of fuel by injecting water or preheating the gas mixture, resulting in reforming of hydrocarbons and better combustion) during his engineering studies. Christophe has become, despite the results of his first engine, somewhat in spite of himself, the defender of this process in France and especially of its evolution: water injection in internal combustion engines
To learn more about the course of Christophe with regard to the Pantone process
Defending the environment as a mechanical engineer does not really promote a professional career (in 2003 at least…)
Christophe has always refused to apply the popular saying: "Convictions are the luxury of those who do nothing" and has always kept its integrity! In 2006, he created the econological shop in order to offer everyone eco-friendly solutions.
The mission of the econologie.com site
The econologie.com site must make the link between several worlds: that of individuals or experimental farmers, sometimes ingenious but often lacking in means of analysis, that of industrialists having these means and that of the scientific community, having the knowledge and means but extremely hard to convince or integrate.
It must be said that the scientific evidence on the Pantone system, due to a lack of study sorely lacking but in 2007, things accelerated in particular thanks to the J. Rochereau's theory on the ionization of water vapor. A page of summary of water injection in heat engines is also available.
The task is delicate and Christophe took it upon himself to create this website to circulate information, put things flat and communicating the different actors.
The achievements of the econologie.com site and forums
- The posting of personal work of Christopher and others.
- The search continues, especially with Olivier, professor of mechanics, a ZX-TD was equipped with a water injection. The results are encouraging and available under "The pantone assembly with water injection on a ZX TD". But the means, time and motivation by lack of recognition begin to fail seriously.
- Dissemination work on forums information and energy processes or alternative energy sources.
- Management forums, more and more active
But despite the time spent and the energy expended, things are moving very slowly ...
The site's long-term objectives
- Bring a other vision of ecology to people, so that it no longer seems guilty but gratifying in the eyes of people.
- Continue an activity of popularization for the general public sensitized but who often has difficulty in navigating through all the truncated speeches offered to him.
To conclude, the creation of this site was the result of a man, who took a lot of time and energy and who arouses adversity. Its creation has not been the subject of any subsidy or external aid in any way whatsoever.
Today, it exists a very active community of econologists gathered on forums.
However, if ecological behavior is "fashionable", nothing is won because econology is still far from being known to the general public and especially the global ecological figures are not generally good. This is why there is a section " help econologie.com »So that you can help the development of econology on a daily basis.
Hello, I am currently looking for specialized actors to develop this project:
This email is a call for some kind of challenges so here is the explanation:
A nuclear power plant works on a simple operation (heating water into steam, this steam is used to turn the turbines which transmit their driving forces to produce electricity for the electricity grid.
The site at which works produces 900MWe or approximately 2800MWth. The nuclear unit is made up of 3 circuits:
– The primary circuit: Compose a reactor, steam generators, GMPP (Primary Motor Pump Group)
– The secondary circuit: Composed of turbines, an alternator and various steam circuits.
– The tertiary circuit: Composed mainly of a condenser and an air cooler for cooling the two previous circuits.
The temperature data of a reactor are:
The reference is the temperature of the fluid in the circuit, i.e. 325°C to reach the power of 900MWe giving 100%PN (Nuclear Power), a so-called "hot" shutdown lowers the temperature of the fluid to 286°C, i.e. 0%PN .
The objective is to replace the nuclear part with another process having a heating capacity equivalent to that of plasma torches, the nuclear boiler will be modified into an exchanger, the temperatures calculated, are based only on thermal conduction (thermodynamics is beyond my domain ).
The exchanger will be connected to a boiler to which the plasma torches will be installed:
Which will form another circuit called “pre-primary”:
Why keep existing plants:
– In order to take advantage of this to emit a decontaminating product and thus increase the decrease of fissile products located for decades in the primary circuit, which can reduce the landfill site for final disposal by reducing its radioactivity.
There is the possibility of creating a thermal site with this principle, which would be harmless to the environment.
The challenge that I propose to you is to study a torch capable of guaranteeing such a function, all while having the capacity to operate durably and with a 0CO2 rejection at the outlet of the stinger.
But knowledge being limited on plasma torches, hence my call.
Kind regards.
PS / to have more, I would have to send you a word file.
