For any liquid or slurrified solid intake, water is separated from its mixed components for pure isolated water in which the component byproducts are either reformed to energy and valued products, or destroyed.  Component byproducts can be converted into various molecular products or harvested to produce bulk isolated materials, and also used to produce carbon-free fuel as well as grid-ready power scalable to consumer demand.

Langenburg Systems operate without external power requirement, and without pollutive emissions. Capacities are scalable for industrial and civil infrastructure.

​

​EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS

​

EXAMPLE SYSTEM

 A Langenburg Systems truck-mounted unit provides the following functions:  water isolation, treatment and purification;  material-to-energy conversion and destruction;  fuel and power production.  The intake capacity is 600,000-800,000 gallons per day.  90% of the intake's water content is isolated, treated and purified. The remaining component byproducts from the intake are converted to carbon-free fuel to operate a turbine-generator at 50 MW baseload capacity.  The system can also produce enough surplus fuel to operate steam turbines for a 600 MW power plant.

HISTORY

The noble line of decent known as The Princely Dynasty of Hohenlohe dates back to 1450.  Its royal insignia depict the classic allegory of a phoenix inscribed with 'ex flammis clarior ', or 'from the flames, brighter '.  This royal German legacy has a history rich in sciences and engineering, and was imported to Southern California during the 1960's by inventor Prinz Albrecht zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg.  The Langenburg Technologies logo features a classic crest with three stylized dragons on a crowned shield that each represent an age of royal dynasty; the crown symbolizing a far earlier royal heritage linked to origins of the Roman empire.
