In this unprecedented era of change, as solution providers Wapsec Research is constantly re-assessing - not just what is the latest and most advanced technology - but the methodology of best practice within a wholistic frame. Only true eco sustainable practice can provide fertile soil, clean water and power and change the ongoing pollutive practices.
Archimedes, Bernoulli, Newton and... Archimedes didn't use coal to power any of his inventions, his solar "death ray" used the sun. At the Siege of Syracuse, Archimedes instructed his soldiers to polish their shields and focus the suns' reflection on enemy ships. The focussed heat caused the Roman ships to ignite... and Archimedes' idea still works today. Solar thermal power stations (arguably best renewable energy to date) use exactly the same idea - except mirrors are used to focus solar heat to boil water to make steam that turns a turbine to make electricity. Of course Archimedes was better known for his "Eureka!" discovery that the King's crown was indeed solid gold (or not).
Archimedes' ideas are key solutions in the impending energy paradigm and his "carbon free" inventions will rise in dominance to see us through the 21st Century and beyond.
Biomimcry is the other great change emerging. After 3.8 billion years of evolution, nature has learned what works and what lasts. Janine Benyus author and innovator is a world leader in Biomimicry having paved the way.
Biomimicry is an emerging discipline that seeks sustainable solutions by emulating natures' designs and processes. Our Desalination and Naturalisation technologies mimic both natures' water cycle and natural water enrichment - producing premium quality drinking water. From heat driven evaporation just like the sun, to precipitation, to the enriching powers of water gathering minerals and oxygen down a mountain stream.
Thanks to Archimedes we'll all be using solar to heat water to make steam to drive pumps and generators... and/or use the pressure and volume differences to drive buoyant objects up and down a water column.
That's actually not far off - but today we have exclusive next generation solar and waste heat desalination that mimics the natural processes of the water sun cycle - with no moving parts - self cleaning - no filters - no chemicals - no CO2 - no carbon tax - no fuel required - made in Germany - you know the Germans always make good stuff!
Whether you're in the desert, a factory, an airport or a 5 star hotel.
Solar Desalination is here! NO CO2 - NO Carbon Tax - NO Fuel cost... ever!

Without getting into the great debate about whether Climate Change is or isn't, we know efficiencies can be improved. Recognising waste and finding ways to save energy is a win win. The internal combustion engine is not very efficient, but here is how we can manipulate circumstance and improve efficiencies by a dramatic 50%. That's a saving of 50% on fuel which equates to a 50% saving to your public pocket whilst saving 50% CO2 emissions.
Australia uses coal to produce approx. 80% of its' power; America 50% and China 80%. An internal combustion coal-fired power station suffers approximately 60% energy loss as heat. Unless the heat is captured and made useful - it is lost to the atmosphere.
"Energy cannot be created nor destroyed"but it can be wasted or just simply lost! The inefficiency of our electricity and water networks are based upon 100 year old standards.
THE NEW STANDARD
The most efficient use of energy is to produce it locally. Decentralised energy production is achievable with CHP Cogeneration - CHP Combined Heat and Power and CCHP Trigeneration - Combined Cooling Heat and Power. CHP and CCHP Cogeneration technologies produce heat and electricity at over 90% efficiency. This revolutionary energy saving technology - which is over 200 years old - is to be found in your kitchen disguised as a water heater - a hot water heater that makes electricity too.
An external combustion engine that makes electricity and harnesses the heat to make your hot water (and in the foreseeable future can cool your home) is flexible. You choose the fuel type you wish to use to drive it... and the fuel is converted into electricity, heat and cooling - and by special request - into premium quality Liquad!™ water.
A 50% carbon saving is 50% - implemented today.
CHP COGENERATION
CHP COMBINED HEAT AND POWER &
CCHP COMBINED COOLING HEAT AND POWER
The combination of using waste heat and CHP and CCHP (because it is over 90% efficient) will reduce our overall carbon footprint by 50% or more. London and parts of Europe are doing it because it's smart and it works. It saves money, energy and CO2 emissions. CHP Cogeneration and CCHP Trigeneration ostensibly doubles the power for the same cost with half the CO2 emission.
Implementing CHP Cogeneration "in the home" is also available. If CHP Cogeneration is implemented the need for another coal fired power station is not warranted. In some cases CCHP is suitable for the home. CHP & CCHP Cogeneration plus another source like wind or solar can partner extremely well saving even more carbon.
WAPSEC delivers premium quality Liquad!™ water solutions using CHP Desalination. Our advanced German Solar Thermal Desalination and Waste Heat Desalination functioning as CHP Desalination uses waste heat. The perfect partner of Cogeneration technologies is CHP Desalination, CHP Combined Heat & Cooling and CCHP Combined Cooling Heat & Power.
CCHP - COMBINED COOLING HEAT AND POWER is TRIGENERATION A new method of utilising CCHP Trigeneration is the Seawater Aqueduct.
SOIL CARBON SEQUESTRATION
Soil is one of the largest sequesters of CO2 on the planet, but it is not behaving as it should. Instead of breathing in the CO2 as normal, it is breathing it out!
The good news is - we engineered it - so we can engineer our way out of it. Renewable Soil
Rejuvenating soils by promoting healthy microbial action will produce more food with less energy and sequester megatons of CO2, which soil loves, which promotes plant growth and more food.
Biochar and Agrichar technologies are built on ancient knowledge - a cost effective and reliable means to sequester CO2 safely and securely whilst improving soil quality.
"Bio-char may represent the single most important initiative for humanities' environmental future". (Tim Flannery, Australian of the year 2007).

Countries with a carbon based infrastructure can off-set their carbon footprint with countries that have not yet established a carbon based water and power infrastructure. By establishing renewable energy systems in developing countries we can off-set our CO2.
Just like planting trees is a carbon off-set, planting renewable energy systems in developing countries removes the need for them to follow in our footsteps and build fossil systems - thereby alleviating their future CO2 impact on the world - and giving us time to switch to Renewables.
It's a Win Win Win. The benefits are just too many. As example; Germany is funding "The Last Mile" in Africa by supplying modular autarkic Medical Centres. These are self-sufficient and capable of generating their own water and power so they do not rely on local infrastructure - designed to ensure the medicine gets to the patient.
WAPSEC "autarkic" designs serve as models for "inter-country-carbon-off-set" with modular eco sustainable water and power systems.
We are riding a new wave of industrial revolution into the RENEWABLE ENERGY AGE. Renewable Energies bring only advantages and no burden to the world.
The ECO SUSTAINABLE PLANET and ECO SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY sections often overlap - as crops become fuel and microorganisms make electricity - the line is blurred and indeed that is the desired effect.
All these exciting new green technologies could become marketable at any time. To clarify exactly what is available now, you'll find WAPSEC is in the business of WATER & POWER SECURITY. WAPSEC supplies 'wholistec' solutions with leading-edge technology from Germany and Australia.
ECO SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY Ecology and Technology working together in synergy. SUSTAINABLE is 24 x 7. ECO SUSTAINABLE is when there's no waste. The waste product of one process is fuel for the next.
THE AGE of ECOLOGICAL SUSTAINABILITY - as people lead innovation - as Industry greens the world - man learns to how to live with the planet.
