CERTIFICATION FOR TOTAL MAGNEGAS RECYCLERS
Total Magnegas Recyclers provide the complete elimination of
contaminated liquid wastes and their conversion to magnegas, usable heat
and carbonaceous precipitates.
In particular, Total Magnegas Recyclers release no solid, liquid, gaseous,
odor or sonic pollution.
Consequently, the sole certification needed is for MAGNEGAS EXHAUST,
since environmental restricted do not exist on fuels per se but for their
exhaust; heat does not need environmental approval, and the carbonaceous
precipitates are generally reused to produce electrodes.
When produced according to the specifications of the Operating Manual,
Magnegas combustion exhaust surpasses all environmental requirements
without catalytic converter or other treatment, as per certification by an EPA
Accredited automotive laboratory reproduced below.
Summary for the certification of magnegas exhaust
A detailed presentation of the above certification, including copy of the final
statement signed by the laboratory director, is available in the web site
http://www.magnegas.com/technology/part7.htm for details).

CERTIFICATION OF RECYCLING FARM MANURE
Total-Linear Magnegas Recyclers process heavy farm manure with up to
50% biocontaminants by releasing: I) the clean burning magnegas whose
certification is provided above; II) A large amount of heat that does not
require certification; III) large amount of coal that burns much cleaner than
conventional coal because impregnated with magnegas, thus requiring no
certification; and IV) A final completely sterile and filtered liquid that
qualifies for “liquid fertilizer” for organic products, which later product does
indeed need EPA approval.
We here report the latest chemical analyses conducted on farm sludge (or
manure) following treatment with a Total-Linear Magnegas Recycler.
For these tests we collected from a Florida source l100 gallons (380 liters) of
heavy farm sludge with about 50% total. The entire volume was then
processed raw in the Total-:Linear Mode via the use of only one Miller
Dimension 1000 operated at 40 Kw for a total of 90 minutes.
Samples of the raw sludge were taken and samples of the treated sludge
were taken at 10 minutes interval. All samples were sent under custody to
SOUTHERN ANALYTICAL LABORATORY, of Oldsmar, Florida.
The results of the chemical analysis were signed by FRANCIS I. DANIELS,
Laboratory director. These results are summarized below and some of the
original certificates are reproduced in a subsequent figures.

NOTES
1)U and U* denote that the analytic was undetected.
2)The data establish that 100 g (380 liters) of raw sewage with 50%
biocontaminants were completely sterilized and processed in 80 minutes
when using 40 Kw. By keeping in mind that efficiency increases nonlinearly
with the increase of power, these data establish that the same results for the
same liquid with 50% contaminants in the same volume of 100 G (380 L),
when processed with 100 Kw, can be treated in about 30 minutes, thus
yielding the recycling in batches per hour of a total of 200 g (760 L) of
heavy sludge at 50 % contaminants
3)When processing farm sludge with less than 50% contaminants the
volume of sludge processed per hour evidently increases.
4) It should be noted that the treated sludge WAS NOT processed through
centrifuges or other filtering means. This illustrates the reason why TTS data
(total solids in suspension) do not change appreciable in the transition from
raw to treated sludge. Needless to say, the removal of TTS is today
guaranteed by numerous separation equipment, such as Decanter Centrifuge.

5)Under no condition the above tests should be applied to other sludges or
manure due to too many possible variations. In any case, the EPA cannot
grant any approval unless the actual equipment is inspected in location while
operating with the actual liquid to be processed

CERTIFICATION OF PROCESSING SEWAGE WITH LINEAR
RECYCLERS
The processing via Linear Recyclers of city, farm or ship sewage with up to
3% biocontaminants releases: 1) The clean burning magnegas whose
certification has been provided above; 2) Clean burning coal impregnated
with magnegas that needs no certification; and 3) Final, totally sterilized,
filtered and , processed effluent waters, that do require chemical analyses for
EPA approval.
We here summary specific tests additionally done by USMagneFuels via the
processing of several hundred of gallons (thousands of liters) of sewage
from the local city of New Port Richey.
Samples were taken of the raw sewage, and samples were additional taken of
treated sewage from several ports including samples after p[assign through
the final UV of the Linear station.
Following due custody, all samples were delivered to DNL LABORATORY
SERVICES OF TAMPA, FLORIDA, all chemical analyses were signed by
JAMES W. HAYES, Laboratory Manager, and the main results can be
summarized As follows:

NOTES
1)A Vortex equipment was used in the above tests rather than a centrifuge
and this explains the lack of complete elimination of TSS (total solids in
suspension). In fact, current separation equipment industrially available in
various country provide the elimination of TSS down to any EPA
requirement.
2)The increase in nitrate illustrates the conversion into a usable form of
some of the original contaminants in solution. Consequently, the final
effluent water are excellent for irrigation. In the event local EPA authorities
requires that nitrates have to be reduced, numerous depuration equipment are
available to meet any such requests.
3)Note the complete elimination of any bacteriological activity as first
guaranteed from the passage of sewage through the plasma of the electric arc
and then assured by the final UV station;
4)Note additionally the virtually complete elimination of phosphorus.
5)Under no condition the above chemical analyses should be assumed to be
valid for other forms of city, farm or ship sewage due to large variations in
content from location to location, as well additional variations in result due
to different Linear Recyclers.

Explanatory notes to the chemical analyses
Carbonaceous Biochemical Oxygen Demand (CBOD)
Organic material is a major pollutant in sewage. The commonest measure of the
organic content of sewage is the Carbonaceous Biochemical Oxygen Demand
(CBOD). CBOD is a measure of the oxygen required to degrade organic
compounds in the flow of wastewater. It is called ‘Biochemical Oxygen Demand’
because bacteria in the water provide the primary catalysts for the conversion of
organic materials and the consumption of oxygen in the water. A high CBOD level
in natural water causes a fall in dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration, which often
kills aquatic life.
Total Suspended Solids (TSS)
A high level of suspended solids can damage bottom-dwelling life-forms and causes
anaerobic conditions on the bottoms of lakes, rivers and seas due to the breakdown
of the solids.
Nutrients
An excess of the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus may cause eutrophication in
natural waters. Eutrophication begins with algal blooms, followed by high BOD
levels (when the algae die) and low DO concentrations.
Eutrophication is the ageing process of a body of water in which organic material
accumulates and slowly replaces oxygen so that, eventually, it fills in and becomes
dry land. In recent years, this process has been accelerated by plant or algae
growth in many bodies of water, encouraged by environmental pollution from such
sources as detergents containing phosphorus, the leaching of fertilizers, sewage and
toxic dumping, and heated water from the cooling systems of power plants and
other
industries.

Coliform
Coliform is a family of bacteria common in soils, plants and animals. The coliform
family is made up of several groups, one of which is the faecal coliform group,
which is found in the intestinal tracts of warm-blooded animals including humans.
