Comment

While conducting research on my Thermoelectric Generator that has very high electrical power output, I discovered that Cementitious materials electrically conduct after being coated with a polymer and then Carbonized at high temperatures to produce Graphene. I have found that this Graphene Cement material can be used as a cheap electrical conductor in Thermoelectric Devices. This Graphene Cementitious material could be used also for ice and snow melting in the winter months in sidewalks and concrete road surfaces and further can be made to generate electrical power from heat generated from the Sun in the summer months. The ice melting properties are from the very low voltage and high current used in the electrically conducting cement. The rapid switching of my electronics with the shorted wave form creates a magnetic pulse within the Cement creating heat needed to melt ice and snow. In prior art electrical wires that heat upon conducting electricity has been used as well as pipes using hot water to melt snow and ice. These are not cost-effective when using those techniques in large areas. In my process there are no wires or pipes that can be problematic as they are prone to break, only cement mixed with Graphene and a simple conductive electrode inserted into the curing concrete. My invention requires only minimum electrical energy to operate and is simplistic in installation versus the electrical heat resistive wires that require High Voltages and High Current which are a possible shock hazard. High current and very low voltage of my design can be made to be much less hazardous.
