LPL is now in certification using the new "Threshold Testing" program for energy and water. This covers hydrogen to 500mm @ 100 bar plus CO2 oil gas and Water. Expected first stage Mid 2022. Projects for Hydrogen and CO2 plus water. The Fluid Highway and hydrogen highway H2H are completely new patented "jointless" continuous, composite, high pressure," leak-free" (Low permeability to hydrogen) transporting networks for fluids; hydrogen gas, oil, water, slurry. The Fluid Highway is designed to cover great distances of hundreds, to thousands of kilometers at low capital and operating cost making it the preferred method of transporting energy in comparison to High Voltage DC, rail, road, ship, and other pipelines for hydrogen. Our H2H unlike steel is not affected by hydrogen and thus does not suffer the accelerated corrosion of hydrogen embrittlement. However, our greatest challenge is Raw CO2 offshore in more than 1km of depth for permanent storage. Plus all the usual things gas, oil, water, chemicals, slurry, (coal, magnetite), and corrosive fluids. However, it may also be a revolution for changing the way cities; fluids gas, and water are distributed. We believe that we do not have a "Climate Crisis" we have a technology crisis. We cannot deal with our Raw CO2 and transport our new energy hydrogen. The projects that we are working on today are to geo-sequester Raw CO2 offshore from oil projects, LNG, coal, and gas-fired power stations to transport hydrogen and reverse Climate Change.

Z-filter Pty Ltd

• Director

  • Jan 2006 - Jun 2016

  Perth, Australia Z-Filter is a unique filtration system for separating cleaning and filtering solids/particles from liquids. The materials that Z-Filter is suited to are soft and compressible and range from separating dairy wastes for the dairy industry (Cleantech Award 2013) to cleaning coal wastes, to dry stackable tailings, to building site waste water ... to separating and drying sewerage and septic ponds. Almost all products require separation filtration or drying at some stage in the process from paints… Show more Z-Filter is a unique filtration system for separating cleaning and filtering solids/particles from liquids. The materials that Z-Filter is suited to are soft and compressible and range from separating dairy wastes for the dairy industry (Cleantech Award 2013) to cleaning coal wastes, to dry stackable tailings, to building site waste water ... to separating and drying sewerage and septic ponds. Almost all products require separation filtration or drying at some stage in the process from paints to plastics from food to fuels. Z-Spliter is totally unique; this machine has the capacity to separate fine clay from iron ore, coal or other hard products on a very large scale very efficiently for an entire mine in full operation. Or produce ultra clean coal for liquid fuels. Demonstration and development for clean:coal fuels, coal, iron ore, bauxite, nickel have already been demonstrated platinum and gold are planned.

  Perth, Australia Created Eagle Aircraft in my mothers garage, by pushing out her MGB GT. Built the first part of the first aircraft in the garage and from that start created an aircraft industry. Built a 10.000 sq m production facility, with its own runway. Listed EAA on the ASX and employed hundreds of people producing Australia's most advanced and probably the worlds most advanced light aircraft at the time. This company was sold to the Malaysian Government and Petronas and formed the basis of CTRM Asia's… Show more Created Eagle Aircraft in my mothers garage, by pushing out her MGB GT.
