New quantum fusion_nevs12
Cavitation-induced fusion uses rapidly vibrating bubbles in liquids to collapse and cause nuclear fusion at the nano-scale. QuantumFusion has detected neutrons in single-bubble experiments and aims to build a functional 100kW commercial reactor prototype using hydrodynamic cavitation. The company seeks $1 million in investment to demonstrate stable, repeatable on-demand fusion and boost its valuation for subsequent funding towards a commercial reactor by 2017.

Editor's Notes
- #2 My name is Max Fomitchev-Zamilov. I am the president of Quantum Potential Corporation and I am here to talk about the future. It is the 21st century, but we do not have flying cars or interplanetary travel. Our planet is in grave peril: it is December and it is 60F outside. Clearly, clean sustainable energy is the biggest problem essential to our very survival. Unfortunately, wind and solar power is not going to solve the problem – these are the lowest energy density sources of all the alternatives.
- #3 Fortunately, the solution has been literally staring us in the face. Nuclear power in general and nuclear fusion in particular is the energy of the future! To put things in perspective -1 gram of deuterium fusion fuel is equivalent to 100 barrels of oil or to 100 million solar panels! Fusion is clean, it produces zero carbon and no radioactive waste.
- #4 So where is the fusion? The government have been spending billions of dollars for decades on fusion but every year the fusion success remains 50 years in the future. Unfortunately the government and the academia is broken. The mainstream fusion projects became ‘too big to fail’. Multiple vested interests will thwart any competing idea that threatens the status quo.
- #5 And we have such an idea! Instead of building billion-dollar reactors we create microscopic bubbles and subject them to strong acoustic vibrations. When the bubbles collapse they become hot enough to sustain nano-scae thermonuclear fusion. Each bubble produces only a handful of fusion reactions, but because we have billions and billions of bubbles vibrating rapidly 1L of carrier liquid can produce 10kW of heat. This is not cold fusion, this is conventional, proven text-book physics.
- #6 To verify our ideas we have build a proof-of-concept single-bubble demo reactor and we have detected neutrons – telltale signs of fusion – in several experiments.
- #7 We have also began work on commercial 100kW reactor, which is basically a hydrodynamic siren. We will inject fusion-fuel filled bubbles in the machine and subject them to strong acoustic vibrations. As a result the bubbles will collapse, cause fusion reactions and warm up the carrier liquid.
- #8 The commercial power plant based on our technology will be little different from the conventional coal-fired power plant with the furnace replaced by our reactor. The heated carrier liquid will create steam driving the generator and producing electric power. Because our fusion fuel – deuterium – is abundant and cheap we estimate the cost of power generation to be under 1 cent per kilowatt.
- #9 So is anybody else doing fusion? Yes! The race is on!
- #10 Companies like GeneralFusion, TriaAlpha, Defkalion and BlackLight Power has raised about $100M each and will probably need another decade and hundred million more to build a functioning rector.
- #11 So how can we compete with these behemoths? We may be small but we have teeth! Our approach is much-much simpler than everyone else’s; as a result our capital needs are much smaller. We do not need $100M. At this point we do not even need $10M. We think outside the box, and our reactor can be built using ordinary skill with parts off eBay (pencil vs. pen). Most importantly we have multiple ideas up our sleeve, and should our initial approach fail we have alternative paths to success.
- #12 We are self-starters. Ourcompany has been founded in August 2010 at Penn State and we are up to 6 employees now. Aside from my retirement savings we have raised and spent over $300k of seed funding from private investors. We have state-of-the-art lab facility, a superb machine shop and we are working like crazy.
- #13 But regardless of how far we’ve come we will not succeed without your participation. We need your support! We are looking to raise $1M to demonstrate repeatable, stable on-demand fusion that works every time you push a button. This will be BIG news that we can go public with. The big news will boost the company valuation dramatically and will make subsequent funding easy. So by getting in early you put a huge multiplier on your investment.
- #14 To achieve commercial success we have created a five-year strategic plan to develop our technology and our goal is to introduce a commercial 100kW reactor in 2017.
- #15 So, I ask you to invest in Quantum Fusion! By investing in fusion you invest in the future. There are risks, yes. We are asking you to risk $1M. But the payoff – the trillion dollar energy market and, most importantly, the green planet and the sustainable future for our children – is very much worth the it. So thank you very much for this opportunity! We take cash or check
