Hydrogen bioreactor

PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NanoLogix, Inc. , a nano-biotechnology company engaged in the research, development and commercialization of technologies for alternative sources of fuel, today announced that it has filed six additional patent applications that enhance the production of hydrogen utilizing its proprietary hydrogen bioreactor. Including today's announcement, the Company has filed a total of 22 patent applications related to its hydrogen bioreactor.

Earlier this year, President Bush issued the Advanced Energy Initiative, allocating millions of dollars to help decrease the nation's dependence on foreign sources of energy, as well as accelerate the adoption of more affordable, alternative sources of energy throughout the year 2015. Since 2001, the U.S. has spent nearly $10 billion on the development of alternative energy sources. The Advanced Energy Initiative provides for a 22% increase in clean-energy research at the Department of Energy (DOE). NanoLogix' hydrogen bioreactor technology platform provides an alternative energy source that meets the objectives of the DOE's call to action to create cleaner, more affordable and reliable sources of energy in the U.S.

David F. Rivers, a director of NanoLogix and CEO of Patriot Lift Company (http://www.patriotlift.com), who previously spent more than 30 years with Pfizer's Schick & Wilkinson Sword business unit and General Motors' Fisher Body Division in Senior Research, Development and Engineering Operations, commented, "We know our reliance on fossil fuels has created an energy crisis of global proportions. Ground sources are rapidly dwindling, and researchers have concluded the world is consuming oil more than two times faster than the rate of new discovery. Through our hydrogen bioreactor technologies and patent-pending processes, we can demonstrate the viability of clean-burning, cost-effective hydrogen as a source of alternative energy. The evolution of hydrogen as a fuel source is on an accelerated path for growth, and we believe NanoLogix can play an active role in its commercialization."
