Magma PowerWelcome to the Magma-Power blog.
This is a place where ideas will be exchanged on the subject of power extraction from magma (the red hot stuff that lies deep below the surface of the earth).
Hopefully you have looked over the data that shows the extraction of steam, natural gas, hydrogen and Carbon Monoxide from magma chemistry is scientifically feasible. Also the paper out of Iceland by BRAGI ÁRNASON - Professor of Chemistry – that records that fact that Icelandic geothermal-vents release 191Million cubic feet of Hydrogen yearly. Bragi’s paper proves that magma chemistry will make Hydrogen in large quantities. In his case it has happen via a vent that was not man made, but man should be able to do the same thing worldwide.
The unmet challenge, which has frustrated me for years, is to engage one of the world governments or a large consortium of companies to demonstrate that it is an economically viable technology to drill into magma and create the chemistry that produces hydrogen and natural gas.
The USA Department of energy has targeted Hawaii and the easiest place to demonstrate the technology – that is on the big Hawaiian island
