I have developed a breakthrough method for synthesizing liquid hydrocarbons (gasoline) using two of the world's most abundant and low-cost materials: ash and water.

While the energy industry spends billions on volatile methane-to-fuel technologies, my process is entirely methane-free. By utilizing minerals found in common wood and industrial ash, I have created a way to "mine" existing waste to produce high-grade fuel without additional drilling or fracking. This could make gasoline cheap enough to make fracking uneconomical and unnecessary.

I successfully secured my priority date with the USPTO by filing a provisional patent on January 29, 2026. I am now in the critical 12-month window to finalize the non-provisional application.

This is the "Business" phase of the project. A non-provisional patent is the legal "fence" required to license this technology to major energy, forestry, and waste-management firms. My goal is to move this to an industrial-scale solution that turns a global waste liability into a global energy asset.

As an independent inventor working with limited resources, I qualify for Micro Entity Status, which reduces federal fees by 80%. However, the path to a granted patent still requires significant capital for:

Federal Filing, Search, and Examination Fees: The mandatory "entry fees" for the USPTO.

Professional Technical Illustrations: High-precision engineering diagrams required by federal standards.

Issue & Maintenance Fees: The final costs to put the patent number in my hand and keep it active.

To protect the commercial licensing value, the specific electrochemical parameters and proprietary synthesis steps are not disclosed publicly, but are fully documented in my USPTO filing. I am also actively appealing to the California Lawyers for the Arts (CLA) and Arizona Public Patent Program to ensure the highest level of legal "claims" drafting.

Every dollar raised goes directly into the "Patent Fund" to ensure this technology belongs to the world and not just a single corporation. Thank you for supporting the future of decentralized, waste-to-energy fuel!
