“…And both confirmed significant heat generation. 7,11) Until then, experiments have mainly focused on the palladium-deuterium system, but reports have emerged that significant heat generation can also be observed in the nickel-hydrogen system. Forcadi and Piantelli first demonstrated significant heat generation using Ni and hydrogen.…”

Anomalously large heat generation phenomena that cannot be explained by any known chemical processes was discovered: Ni-based nano-structured multilayer metal composites were preloaded with hydrogen gas and heated rapidly to diffuse hydrogen and trigger the heat generation reaction. Maximum energy released per total hydrogen absorption was over 10 keV/H and no gamma rays or neutrons, which are harmful to the human body, were observed. It is possible to intentionally induce the heat burst phenomenon, which can increase the amount of heat generated without any new energy input. This can be applied to reaction control as well as to improve the accuracy of heat generation evaluation. A common feature, that regions of very high oxygen concentrations are observed in places, was observed in the heat-producing samples. At this time, however, the discussion of this oxygen concentration as nuclear in origin must exclude the possibility of many chemical processes.
