No hay milagros: la estafa del E-CAT

Source: The Oil Crash

Hace unas semanas algunos lectores me pidieron que comentara acerca de un invento ideado por dos italianos, Andrea Rossi y Sergio Focardi (presentados como profesores de la Universidad de Bolonia), el artefacto conocido como E-Cat (Energy Catalizer). Este dispositivo se supone capaz de producir energía a partir de níquel, agua y un catalizador no revelado, teniendo un insumo de energía eléctrica con una potencia de 400 vatios cuando llega a su estado estacionario de operación y produciendo un exceso de calor con una potencia estimada de salida de 12.400 vatios. Eso implicaría un retorno en la operación de 31 veces la energía entrada (cuidado, esto no es la Tasa de Retorno Energético (TRE) porque no se tiene en cuenta el coste energético de fabricar la máquina, de producir el níquel y el catalizador, etc), el cual no está nada mal. De ser cierto supondría una revolución energética, acabaríamos con los problemas asociados al Peak Oil e incluso proporcionaría un magnífico estímulo económico. Sólo hay una pega: es una estafa, una elaborada estafa pergeñada por un estafador al cual ni tan siquiera se puede calificar de brillante.

E-cat Home Validation By NASA

Andrea Rossi has always been an optimist in the promise of the e-cat home device. He has also said that there are already some e-cat home device operational in US and Italy. However, he has never really presented more than just tests to Krivit and othe…

Mr. Krivit Persistence

I public the full text of a comment to my previous post ‘Mr. Rossi Looks for Happiness’, just received by Andrea Nisto.

Dear Massimo Cali,

I wish to thank you for the Cartoon of Bozzetto: I rememember it Mr. Rossi since I was a kid…
I also share your position concerning the different views of the e-cat and I would like to add a comment taking my cue from the case of Mr. Krivit and his persistence.

Professor Levi

Professor Levi, sometimes whipping boy for those seeking to rubbish Andrea Rossi’s eCat, took centre stage in journalist Steven Krivit’s most recent attack. I expected the watching of it to be painful and indeed the scientist’s discom…

Giuseppe Levi e l’E-Cat

Quando si parla recentemente di Andrea Rossi e E-Cat, al suo nome viene spesso associato quello di Sergio Focardi, Professore emerito all’Universita’ di Bologna. Ma e’ importante ricordare che con loro collabora attivamente Giuseppe Levi, anch’egli docente presso l’Universita’ di Bologna. Pare tra l’altro che l’ateneo sia disposto a concludere un accordo di ricerca con […]

Steven Krivit VS Andrea Rossi

Theres been quite alot of heat building up between Steven Krivit and Andrea Rossi the last months. Andrea Rossi is clearly very irritated and angry as some of the conversations on his website confirms. The Fusor Ecat fusion project has its two clear en…

Rossi on Skepticism

New Energy Times editor, Steven Krivit has reported further on his recent visit to Bologna to see Andrea Rossi and the E-Cat.  Krivit has received quite a bit of attention since he published a video of the E-Cat in operation. There has been a lot of analysis of the amount of steam and water coming …

Coming soon: Krivit’s third report

After a month of reticence, New Energy Times editor Steven Krivit has broken his silence to announce that his long-awaited third report on Rossi’s E-Cat is coming soon—”within the next few days”. This report is supposed to cover the technical details supporting his reasoning that the E-Cat—the one Rossi demonstrated for him, at any rate—does … Continue reading Coming soon: Krivit’s third report

Krivit Drives Another Nail

Steven Krivit’s long-awaited report will soon be on your screen. There is little tension in its expectation as we can probably guess what he will have to say. With three dozen appendices, I expect it to include much detail – a technical mountain built from straw data. It cannot be dismissed at this point because […]
