Part of the Patent.

Catalytic elements of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni) and zinc (Zn) are effective. These may be overlapped in any order (e.g., Cu—Ni—Zn, Cu—Zn—Ni, Ni—Zn—Cu, etc.). In preferred embodiment, additional screens of gold (Au) and palladium (Pd) increase effectiveness. The Au catalyst is typically 24-karat Au plated on Ni; the Pd catalyst is a plated Cu screen. The additional screens may also be placed in any order, but Pd adjacent to the coolant tube may impede effective welding. Optional catalyst elements include iridium (Ir) and platinum (Pt), or a platiniridium alloy. Electrical excitation of the catalyst improves efficiency at a lower temperature.

Gold? um....a catalyst? Better show me the chemical formulas of Gold reacting with carbon or hydrogen as a catalyst at temperatures less than 6,000°F.

Read THIS for how a catalytic converter works. Then if you want to do the same type explanation for how this tube turd works, I'd sure appreciate it.

Otherwise, keep in mind, you can patent anything, it is NOT required to actually work to be patentable. People at the patent office are not equipped to decipher BS when it is presented. So a patent is far from the validation of operation of a device.
