PYRODELTA COMPLETES WORKING PROTOTYPE OF AUTOMOBILE THERMOELECTRIC RADIATOR

First Tellurium Corp.'s majority-owned subsidiary PyroDelta Inc. has completed a prototype for its tellurium-based automobile thermoelectric radiator (as reported in September, 2024). The device, which is tubular in design, is being retrofitted into a combustion engine vehicle and will be presented to the public in April.

The PyroDelta thermoelectric radiator generates electricity from the heat differential of hot radiator liquid passing through a thermoelectric pipe while air cools it from the outside. It is designed to power all electrical devices in an automobile, making an alternator obsolete and saving significant amounts of fuel. The robust device can withstand temperature extremes greater than any other thermoelectric generator on the market, making it ideal for the high temperatures encountered in a radiator.

"The prototype has functioned exactly as designed in our testing," said PyroDelta chief engineer Michael Abdelmaseh. "We are thrilled with the results, and we believe this could revolutionize electric power generation for automobiles."

Abdelmaseh noted that improved efficiencies for combustion engines are more important than ever. "With the slowdown in the adoption of electric vehicles, anything that can save fuel, and thereby reduce greenhouse gas emissions from gasoline and diesel vehicles during the transition to EVs, will be crucial for the auto industry."

PyroDelta is also working on a thermoelectric generator that would capitalize on temperature differentials around batteries in electric vehicles to save energy and extend the driving range.

"We're very pleased with what PyroDelta has accomplished in a short amount of time," said First Tellurium president and chief executive officer Tyrone Docherty. "We look forward to the rollout with a demonstration vehicle in April. We believe this cylindrical design and technology will open many new markets for the device, and we are already getting inquiries from other industries that may benefit from it."
