Greetings!
This month we lost a giant in the medical field who I
knew personally. One of the great MD, PhDs, Doctor Norman
Shealy passed
away on July 8, 2024. People often
considered him to be the founder of Holistic Medicine. He was the
Author of many books including Energy
Medicine, 90
Days to Self Health and Blueprint
for Holistic Healing, among
others. He used his knowledge, coupled with compassion, to love,
heal, and impact his patients and family in the most positive way,
vowing to heal the body as a whole. Inventor of the Tens
Machine, he held many patents for healing devices. His ‘normshealy.com’
now lands on https://realholisticdoc.com/ with
his partner and recent son-in-law, Dr. Sergey Shealy-Sorin,
who worked with Norm for years. To celebrate his prolific career, our
institute has uploaded his professionally edited, amazing 80-minute
COFE8 presentation on the “Biochemistry of Longevity” from
2016 on our IRI YouTube Channel so you can view it for
free: https://youtu.be/7h80608AcWo.
Norm presents the most complete medical health information you will
ever need!
Our Story #1 gives us a lot of hope for the
future of batteries and their ability to meet the expected increase
in demand. In addition to the security boost to Li-Ion batteries
offered by the Redwood Materials (Story #5) company which recycles
old ones, now sodium-Ion batteries (Na-Ion) will be their major
competitor. As soon as 2027, according to MIT, Na-Ion batteries will
be underselling the Li-Ion batteries and satisfying LDES.
Long-Duration Energy Storage (LDES) portfolio will
validate new energy storage technologies and enhance the capabilities
of customers and communities to integrate grid storage more
effectively. DOE defines LDES as storage systems capable of delivering
electricity for 10 or more hours in duration.
Story #2 helps address the future energy demand for
fresh water without the addition of grid electricity. However,
desalination has had serious issues with salt deposits from sea water
input. To combat the salt crystallization challenge, researchers in China
at Nanjing
University have developed a waffle-shaped
solar evaporator (WSE). The WSE is made of a graphene-like
porous monolith, fabricated via a zinc-assisted pyrolysis route using
biomass and recyclable zinc as the precursor materials. WSE delivers
liters of fresh water continuously for 60 days without cleaning.
Story #3 is another breakthrough which we always savor
since you most likely have never thought it possible, while already
reviewed by MIT. The company, www.energydome.com has
created a saleable product with a closed thermodynamic transformation
of CO2 into a liquid, storing it under pressure AT ROOM TEMPERATURE,
and then releasing it back into the original gasholder to create
work. It is called a “liquid battery” and offers long-duration energy
storage at competitive prices. Customers can buy any size “CO2
battery” system to meet their needs https://energydome.com/co2-battery/.
Story #4 yields an alternative to present hydrogen
generation that uses fossil fuels. Offshore wind farms along the
Atlantic coastline, according to the US Department of Energy will
reduce the cost of clean hydrogen generation, as reported by the
National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) in the Journal of Physics this
month.
Story #5 reports a single crystal development that
reduces or eliminates the nickel cathode degradation of normal EV
batteries now in use. It is expected this will greatly extend the
range of EVs which recently reached 648 miles with a Chinese company
Nio demonstration of its ET7 at an average of 52 mph speed. Smart
Electric Vehicle Company NIO opened its North
America Headquarters in North San José CA. Nio USA hopes to start EV
production in the US by 2025.
Onward and Upward.
