If that's legit and can be made cost-effective, the case for nuclear is largely gone...
- manfredo 7y agoEfficiencies of over 100% have been claimed. Over 50% of the US patent office's applications are for entropy-reversing devices. Come back to me once these claimed figures are actually implemented.
