Regarding the green steam: Regarding one design it was stated "this device produces up to 24 gallons of distilled water a day, charges batteries, and makes all the hot water you can use employing an ordinary household pressure cooker on a low simmering fire. This model steam engine operates the system on 4 to 20 psi of steam pressure." --You have my attention.

In this thread in the first post Boiler design and Green Steam Engine It's stated that the psi to the machine is 100psi, but "the steam pressure is 3500-to 4000 is typical running a generator of about 5KW at around 100psi." Doing rough math at 20psi operational pressure that 700-800psi. When I was in the navy it was preached to us that the 1200psi superheatedhere
No, you got that wrong. those figures are the rpm!

More info on Mr. Greens website.
