AFPW Cartridges VS K-Cylinders

Customers: Back-up power fuel cell companies, industrial and university labs, diesel engine augmentation users Current H2 sources for K-Cylinders:
Steam reforming
Electrolysis
Waste gas purification streams
Chemical generation

API technology
-Delivers same volume of H2 as K-Cylinder at 1/10 of the weight
-Easier portability and handling; H2 only on demand
-Vast improvement over K-Cylinder logistics chain


Drivers; Low cost ultra-high purity H2 on site; lightweight; recharging cartridges; low cost storage and distribution logistics; longer run times

Status: In partnering discussions with various companies who view this as a potential new line of business. Kaymont weather Balloons, the largest supplier in the USA, already views our system as a replacement for K-Cylinders.

K – Cylinder Comparison
K-Cylinder Dimensions
-Weight: 55kg (120lbs_, Height: 130cm (51”)
-Diameter: 23cm (9”)
-Disadvantages of K-Cylinders
-Costly Logistics chain – delivery, pickup, refilling
-Heavy and awkward to handle
-Under high dangerous Pressure

Advantages of API’s cartridge based system
-On site generation
-Safer, no high pressure storage issues
-Easier and cheaper logistics chain
-Extremely long storage life
-Cheaper insurance rates
-10 Alumifuel Cartridges = 5,000L, same as K-Cylinder at one-tenth of the --weight
