New MPD System Promises Power Without Dynamos
Dr Mostafa Talaat of the University of Maryland describes magnetohydrodynamic power generation using hot cesium based gases driven by fossil fuels or a nuclear reactor. The MPD unit would need about one tenth the space of a steam turbine plant at comparable output, with heat reaching 23 600 degrees Fahrenheit to drive the process.

Industry leaders seek oil import cuts to stabilize domestic output
In a May 25 briefing, producers urged Interior Secretary Stewart Udall to endorse a 250000 to 300000 barrel per day cut in oil imports as the first step in a broad plan to restore stability to the domestic oil industry. They also urged TPAA to push Udall to limit foreign military purchases of jet fuel and aviation gasoline, which total over 200000 barrels daily, arguing the current volume is excessive with substantial growth in recent years.
