Title: Innovations by Robert A Vanderhye in Greenhouse Gas Removal

Introduction

Robert A Vanderhye, based in McLean, VA, is an accomplished inventor with a remarkable portfolio that includes 17 patents. His work primarily focuses on innovative solutions for environmental challenges, particularly in the realm of greenhouse gas removal.

Latest Patents

One of Vanderhye's latest patents addresses atmospheric greenhouse gas removal. This invention utilizes materials like potassium hydroxide or ammonia, which react with ambient carbon dioxide to produce fertilizer. The innovative design features a fabric associated with a vane of a vertical axis wind turbine that not only performs useful work but also supports the fertilizer-producing material. A sophisticated misting system, controlled by a humidity regulator, ensures that a water mist is applied to the material when the humidity drops below a predetermined level. The produced nitrogen and/or potassium fertilizer can either be used directly in soil, shredded, or burned to generate energy along with ash that can be used as a soil amendment. Additionally, the wind turbine comes with a versatile mounting system consisting of three adjustable legs and a slotted spoke design for easy assembly of the vanes.
