Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the combination of innovative techniques for the construction of a submerged floating foundation, to be used as a submerged support base for a wind turbine and for an electrolyser, and with the possibility of utilising the entire submerged facility to house additional equipment; the entire structure to be combined with fish farming facilities, placed in the immediate vicinity of the foundation and attached permanently to the foundation with various cables or ropes.
  • the innovative content does not only relate to the creation, at a depth below the area affected by wave movements, in fresh or sea waters, of a submerged floating foundation, by itself a technical innovation in view of the method used for executing the work, but also to the use of the structure to house an electrolyser for the electrolysis of water and the production and storage of hydrogen, together with all the equipment required to carry out these activities.
  • a second innovation relates to the particular method used to make the structure rigid through the use of chains and pipes, and to the particular method used to stabilize the foundation by using bottom-weights.
  • the particular method of anchoring the structure to the sea floor permits the positioning and the realization of a fish farming facility.
  • the foundation consists of a horizontal hexagonal body built in concrete, or preferably in steel.
  • the upper body is a hollow, buoyant body containing an electrolyser for the production of oxygen and hydrogen (Nr. 7 ). In the same hollow body are placed one or more tanks for the storage of the oxygen produced by electrolysis. This hollow body is also the support base a tower (Nr. 10 ), to which a working platform above the sea level is attached, which allows access to the inside of the tower.
  • a nacelle On top of the tower a nacelle is positioned containing the turbine and its accessories (Nr. 12 ); the nacelle contains the rotor, the revolutions multiplier and the generator (Nr. 11 ). All these items rest, without interruption, on the foundation (Nr. 6 ), whose main purpose is therefore to provide a support base for the turbine and the electrolyser.
  • the lower body consists first of a hollow body, cylindrical or polygonal (Nr. 4 ), full or filled with ballast; this body acts as a counterweight to stabilize foundation movements.
  • a second hollow body (Nr. 13 ), preferably of spherical shape (or polygonal or cylindrical), to be used—also, if needed, with the hollow body of the foundation (Nr. 6 )—as a reservoir for the storage of the hydrogen produced by the electrolyser.
  • the entire structure is designed to stand against external natural forces (wind, waves, currents, tides) through the joint and combined action of two forces: the force, based on Archimedes principle, which pushes the structure upwards vertically, and the reaction produced by the anchoring chains (Nr. 3 a ), which pulls the structure downwards; these two forces, however, are not sufficient to ensure the absolute stability of the foundation, necessary for the correct working of the turbine.
  • the entire structure is attached with cables or preferably by chains to bottom-weights (Nr. 2 ), placed on the sea floor (Nr. 1 ).
  • bottom-weights Nr. 2
  • From the central ballast (Nr. 4 ) go off additional chains placed diagonally (Nr. 3 b ), also attached to the bottom-weights (Nr. 2 ), whose function is to off-set and prevent any horizontal shifting of the structure.
  • the installation is no longer positioned above the foundation but on its side. More precisely, from each main bottom-weight (Nr. 2 ) placed on the sea floor (Nr. 1 ) go off some anchoring ropes, which connect the bottom-weight to floats (Nr. 15 ) which are themselves connected through additional anchoring ropes (Nr. 18 ) to other bottom-weights (Nr. 19 ) on the sea floor. From the floats go off ropes (Nr. 16 ) which connect the floats to the fish farming installation, which consists of a cage (Nr. 17 ) on top of which is placed the dispenser used to provide fish-food inside the cage.
  • the method of construction of the submerged foundation is totally innovative, as it creates a stable structure able to withstand and compensate automatically the impact of all natural forces acting at the site where the foundation is located (winds, waves, marine currents, tides of any foreseeable intensity).
  • the innovative content of the fish farming facility comprises various elements.
  • the fact that the facility uses the submerged floating foundation as its primary anchoring support provides greater stability and allows the breeding of any fish species in open and deep waters.
  • the described facility is completely automatic with regard to the feeding of the fish and the oxygenation of the water.
  • Such a combined facility allows the use of a single structure to generate at least three revenue streams from: the turbine (electricity), the electrolyser (hydrogen) and the aquaculture plant (sea food). Also innovative is the fact that a limited amount of space is used to generate substantial financial benefits, while totally respecting the environment.
