Santta Claus Field Facilities Dec 17th 2018

Steamer calculation example [5th January 2019]

California and western USA has suffered from drought over 10 years without longer breaks. Possible that without corrective actions, the drought cannot be stopped anymore. Possible that after you get more humidity from cars, coal plants, trains, etc. they do not produce enough humidity to area. If so, you have no option for bringing humidity to it. Ocean water, water trains and salt-dirt removal is the only practical, cheap enough, way to assist nature back into life creation cycle. With water-trains and distilling you can always speed up the process.

The biggest water consumers are bath, shower, laundry, dish washing and toilet. One toilet flush takes 7 to 10 liters water. Baths and shower around 200 liters. Bath with shower takes more. Your personal needs are small when compared to these. Possible that 20 liters per day is too small. You cannot waste water, then you should use apparels and shower, which minimizes the water consumption. 

They are nowadays common, in many towns and cities you have to purify river water for inhabitants. No matter how you do it, amounts of required clean water are big. Regardless of the method, purifying costs quite a lot. Water distiller-tower produces good quality water, with reasonable cost.

For US economies the water trains and towers are closer to Great Deal from 1930s than expensive border wall ... with or without Trump towers. In great deal US government implemented earlier plans for country wide highway ( interstate ) network. Germany made similar kind of plans at the same time, in the end of 1920s. The implementation began in 1950s.

Santta Claus Field Facility power / water tower In the picture you see combined water and waste-water cleaner. With power creation option. System uses as much heat / energy as possible. In steamer the heart is always at the surface, it reduces the amount of unnecessary warming, saves in heating costs. The facility is intended to hillside. The coal and ocean water are dropped directly from train to storages. You tow the train to top. Empty cars when they go by the drop point. Each floor 4 to 8 ovens for burning coal. Oven are in the water, near the surface. Oven uses copper hearts for distributing the heat. In the oven there is also pipe line for running gas turbine.  As you can see from the calculations, water level in kettle is low. Weigh and strength demands are small. - Electric resistors come from outer wall. Another way to heat water or assist coal fire. - Exhaust gases and ashes are also used for heating water, the pipes runs in water. - Underground floors are used for purifying drain water. - White pipe in the center is a reservation for alternative way to bring ocean water down and take exhaust gases up. When it is not used, you fill the hole with kettle. In this you have better pre warming system for the water. - Underwater tanks are filled from drains. ( not in the diagram ) - If you want to collect water from exhaust gases, you can place cups and taps into lower curves. - Air space tube in the middle has elevators and staircases. - Towers can have as many floors as terrain, hillside allows. - Although natural basin will do for ocean water, the basin must be covered. So that animals doesn't drink the water. - From the area it is easy to find hillsides for 60 meter / 200 feet towers. - River and ocean tower misses raw water tanks - Electric tower misses the fuel-air systems from the center. - Easy to add river water inlets to the bottoms of the lower and underground kettles.

With 2kW element in stove, water vaporizes around 7 cm water in one hour. From this the heated area for boiling 1 cubic meter in hour the area must be 14,29 m².  You need  4,266 meter tube for vaporizing one cubic meter ( weighs one ton ) in hour. Radius of the boiling area is 2,133 meters.

For one ton in second you need 3600 tubes,  51 428.57 m². The required boxed steamer unit is 240 x 240 meters. The unit can handle 86 400 tons per day / 9 trains per day.

In water purification you can use multi-layer tubes like in the picture. In purification you do not raise the water anywhere, the height of single unit can be small. System saves space and energy you need for purification. In system you pre warm the water with the leaked heat from upper layer. In principle the up coming steam is warm enough for boiling the next water layer. With 10 floor towers the required box is 76 x 76 meters.

In multifloor tower you obviously place the drain floors to the bottom. There is safety and collection issues. To the ground / underground floor you can build a big basin / reservoir for the wastewater.

Vaporizing one liter of water could require around 1 kWh power ( single layer system ). With coal, heating would cost around 3 cents per liter. With 20 liter daily consumption 60 cents a day, $216 per capita in year. Drain water purification could be $180 per year, around $400 per capita in total. Multi floor system could drop the bill to around $200 a year. Costs a little, but you are certain to fight the drought and climate change with proper tools.

The required coal plant sizes are around 1 MW. You need one for ocean and another for drain water. The plants vaporizes the air with their exhaust gases. 1 MW coal plant's exhaust gases and energy system equals around 70 cars. If you use car 3 hours a day, during the day plant equals to 280 cars or so. Coal plant is good in places without much traffic, like in suburbs and bigger parks.

With vacuum, basin, wave power and sunlight you can get the costs to earlier $40 per year. Nothing prevents you from building basin plant networks to a river with big dams.
Water purification facility with coal plant suits well into sugar oil field. When so, you use the sweet water before it is used for increasing the air-ground humidity.

In common water system, over 50% from the used river water goes back to river via drains. Toilet water is cleaned from heavy and solid objects. Otherwise the cleaning is left to next user. When needed the distilled waste water can be mixed with common water or with distilled ocean water. 

In Santta Claus double pipe system works in the same way. There are two water reservoir-tank-tower systems. When secondary reserves are full the surplus is lead back into nature or Colorado river. At Santta Claus all collected waste-drain water is cleaned. Also the surplus water which is leaked to nature. Waste-water from the labs and facilities can contain hazardous compounds.

Water should be always distilled with as low temperature as possible. Higher temperature tends to vaporize and add unwanted compounds into cleaned water. Natural evaporation is slow, but very safe in this way.

First sugar oil fields [5th January 2019]

First desert to sugar fields areas should be near road and railroad. Area needs soil, fertilizers and possible water. 
Watering fields on in the evening of the warm day is not a new thing in farming. Farmers have done so at river bank fields.
If test fields get too dry, you got bring the water with train or trucks.

Therefore first fields go east from the dividing mountains. Somewhere into area, which marked with yellow and blue.
Santta Claus Field Facility location was selected for Space Lifts, their landing and safety.

When you enlarge the farmed area, you must always continue from the existing field.
From the test fields it is possible to continue towards Los Angeles, along the sides of the railroad.

Humidity creation and freight costs favors idea of refining sugar to oil already near or at the fields.
Enormous oil storages forms a safety risk, so you would have to refine plants to oil by demand.
At field conversion adds heating-distilling cost.
You can never refine sugar into big storages, sugar reacts with water and humidity.

In the picture you see the potential beginning area in Africa. The potential countries are at the end of rainforests. North Africa is easiest of all. 
Countries are Senegal, Mauritania, Burkina Faso, Mali, Nigeria, Niger, Chad and Sudan. Nigeria is the only higher income country in the group.
In Mali Niger river makes a long curve in Sahara. In Sudan Nile floats through Sahara desert. In Niger, Nigeria and Chad there is lake Chad.

In this map you see seaside mountains at Arabian peninsula. It is possible pump and clean ocean water to the mountains.
Builds channels from the mountains to desert. You do not have to build the channels to full length right away.
You can lengthen channels and increase pumping capacity by demand.
When you choose the places for stations, you must check, that you can later increase the capacity.

Watering channels look like rivers and creeks.

For one reason or another plants die, when there is too much oil on the ground.

As you can see Africa and Arabia has enough capacity to provide oil for Asia and Europe, both. Both are accessible via railroads.

If the announced, proven oil reserves were true, it would be kids play to increase drilling capacity so much,
that the connection to financial growth would go broke : Oil price would fall when consumption grows.
And there wasn't a need to struggle with almost impossible equations and aerial demands.

Start up in Australia [ 10th Jan 2018 ]

In the picture you see highway, railway is near the road. You can build a long front, which heads south-west from rail and highways.

In Australia the best place to begin is at three northern towns : Newcastle Waters, Elliott and Pamayu.
Towns are at the northern top of the central Australian deserts.
This is the only place with railroad and highway, which both continues to the southern shores.
At the north they end to Darwin, capital of Northern Territory.

Yearly rainfalls are 4 times bigger than in Las Vegas site. Temperatures are higher.
There are trees and more vegetation than in Santta Claus Field Facility. Easy place for sugar oil fields.
Not a place for Santta Claus Field Facility. There is nothing in there. Only three small towns.

In Africa railroads end to Sahara borders. In Africa people in Sudan earned app $3000 per year, people in Niger earned app $2000, others had less than $1000 yearly earnings. Data is from World Bank, year 2017. Low labor costs makes Africa cheapest sugar oil producer for quite a long time. 

One base idea in Africa project is that, you use as little expensive foreign labor as possible. Although wages are high at country / continent level, they are low for others. Not very likely that Trump Tower walls are needed for keeping "dirty and disgusting" Mexicans away from African sugar oil fields.

- South from Brazilian rainforests there is lots of unused land, which is not classified as desert. 
- African and Australian deserts are surrounded by wastelands, which are not yet classified as deserts.
- USA and Gulf countries misses surrounding wastelands.
