ABSTRACT:
A closed-loop process is disclosed for managing electrical energy in displaced time and space by utilizing aluminum in an oxidation-reduction cycle. Metallic aluminum, in a substantially pure electrolytic form, is burned to provide substantial quantities of heat for use by any of a wide variety of heat engines to in turn generate electrical energy. For example, the heat of combustion from the aluminum may drive a turbine to generate electrical energy. In addition to heat, combustion of the aluminum produces aluminum oxides which as disclosed herein (at a convenient time and place) receive energy for reduction back into the metallic form of aluminum. The chloride-reduction process is disclosed. The metallic aluminum is thus again in an effective form for storage and movement of energy pursuant to combustion and another cycle.
