Hydrogen in the Home - Part 1

Karl Rudisill, CEO/Founder of Element One Technolgies, demonstrates that natural gas home appliances can safely run on 100% hydrogen. He also showcases his modifications to propane-powered heaters to run on 100% hydrogen, meaning we now have safe, reliable indoor heating solutions that has never existed before. Requiring no venting, these hydrogen-powered heating solutions can be used safely inside unventilated rooms with no harmful emissions.

insanely based man teaches you to not be afraid of hydrogen and calls out oil tycoons and their marketing push.

[@haddow777]

Funny, because oil companies are behind the push for a Hydrogen economy. 99% of Hydrogen produced today is made by fossil fuels. The single biggest reason why is cost. Green Hydrogen is far more expensive. Blue Hydrogen, which is receiving a big push from oil funded PR campaigns is the sane exact thing we have now, but with carbon capture added on. Of course, carbon capture is extremely expensive and also hasn't been prove to do any more than capture a portion of the output. So, no, big oil is not against Hydrogen in the least. Hydrogen made from Methane (or natural gas) uses more Methane than if Methane was used directly in the bunson burner or torch or whatever. More, Hydrogen has a far lower energy by density, so you have to use more volume of Hydrogen than Methane to heat the same space. So it multiplies that extra Methane used to produce the Hydrogen even more.

The Hindenburg is always given as an example of how dangerous hydrogen is. One thing they don't mention is the Hindenburg was painted with what is essentially solid rocket fuel. The paint was made with finely ground aluminum which is used in solid rocket boosters like the Space Shuttle used.

[@fuelban]

Since 2006 I have built and utilised , HHo units, my findings are much akin to you're self. As long as you use a well designed and well qualified installation, by qualified installers, then it is no more dangerous than natural gas / petroleum / or / any other fuel supply... NOTE... I've over these years of experimenting Not had a single back flash explosion.... Not one.. Nice video..... Thom in Scotland.

[@Ionic_Projection]

Phenomenal Karl! the proof is irrefutable in my view as well as I am a hydrogen proponent myself as well! It would be really good to see tests on the longevity of using these propane retrofitted devices, and also the amounts of Hydrogen being used.

[@jonahvimeo4276]

Burning hydrogen alone in unventilated room does not produce CO (carbon monoxide) but instead of pure water vapour. Also it diminishes amount of oxygen in the room as any other fuel does.

[@AdriaFabrega]

Water vapor = ambiental humidity?

[@kevinlane1219]

That shouldn't be a problem so long as there is window close enough to where the gas is combusted.

[@doglegjake6788]

Excellent video

20 ppm Anhydrous Ammonia Odor Agent Proposed for Hydrogen Fuel for Safe Detection of Leaks by Daniel Nelson Russell in the journal, Detection, Vol.10 No.1 (1/13/2023). This should make home and business use of hydrogen fuel and hydrogen storage infrastructure and transportation much safer.

Would indoor use cause high level of moisture in the room? higher than a gas appliance?

I wonder how much it costs to have cogeneration with hydrogen, vs the grid

[@kannonrussell2566]

Do you sell any of the supplies to retrofit lp or other gas appliances?

[@frankierogers9787]

Need to know what pill to operate hydrogen

[@r3v0k3_c0ns3nt]

if a couple windows were cracked would it dangerous to use a catalytic heater (after being modified to burn hydrogen) to heat a house trailer?

[@datawire1]

Would you ever suggest anyone converting motorhome appliances to work on hydrogen? I need to find some plans for this

[@charleskotkin-smith4939]

Hello so how can I modify a gas back boiler system to run on Hydrogen?

[@MikeBurns-bi5xj]

😮I believe in hydrogen

[@r3v0k3_c0ns3nt]

Great video.... My question is this, Why does the catalytic heater (converted to hydrogen) still produce carbon monoxide when the orange heater and induction heater not after they've been converted to hydrogen?

[@ezekielbreedlove7698]

It doesn’t!

[@littlebearish]

Is there any particular reason you start them with a low gas flow and then up the flow? Just curious since you don't have to do that with conventional propane or natural gas.

[@khurshidanwer7332]

he start with low gas flow because if u ignite with high flow it can cause damage even if u are using any other flamble gas it is always precaution to ignite gas at low flow.

[@frankierogers9787]

Can you send d me a link to purchase

[@johnking9942]

Can you post data on Watts/Kg... h2

[@SunHarvest]

Great to see elimination of threat from carbon monoxide. As I understand hydrogen is odorless like carbon monoxide. How do you manage threat from hydrogen leak?

[@dennislandstrom6904]

H2 is lighter than air so I would use an Hgas monitor\alarm set high in the room. They can be found with adjustable ppm

[@HardProduct]

So this is basically combustion in mid air?

[@HardProduct]

and the velocity point where H is mixed with O2?

[@user-dy2kz5gr1m]

How do you put hydrogen in a propane tank

[@haddow777]

Pretty sure you don't. Hydrogen is highly reactive and will quickly deteriate the metal in the tank. Special non reactive materials need to be used for storing and transporting Hydrogen.

[@frankierogers9787]

How do I feel a container with hydrogen because I have bottles

[@youonlyliveonce6000]

would be impossible to develop your own hydrogen gas generator to pump into the Toyota hydrogen gas car. You know someone has or is going to do this .🤗

So... How you obtain your hydrogen?

[@KeebCR]

Hyrdrogen is easy to get your hands on. I would bet he gets it by way of welding supply store such as Airgas

[@amraceway]

Hydroden leaks are a very real problem as is hydrogen embrittlement. In addition burning hydrogen produces nitric oxide which when released into the atmosphere produces acid rain. There is no valid case for using hydrogen in domestic situations and those advocating its use are backed by traditional fossil fuel suppliers.

[@doglegjake6788]

We waste more energy than we will ever use

[@Blueberrythegreat]

I’ve long wanted to produce hydrogen I believe the problem is not using it But rather storing it.

[@corashy1950]

Yeah none of this matters. How much energy does it take to produce the Hydrogen needed? 140% to 180% more than you produce. So why not use that energy? So unless you use less energy to produce then you get in hydrogen its a dead idea.

[@karlrudisill]

This is fabricated MISinformation by Anti-hydrogen folks.

[@haddow777]

Ya, no. 99% of Hydrogen is produced using fossil fuels. Methane mostly. They use super heated steam to break apart the molecules into Hydrogen and CO2. Using Hydrogen first of all requires the emission of huge amounts of CO2. In fact, today's levels of Hydrgen production emits about 2% of global CO2 emissions every year. People claim it will be cleaned up with electrolysis, but it is far more expensive and requires some pretty rare elements. Again, 99% today is made with fossil fuels. What's more, Hydrogen produces much less energy than Methane. For one, because most Hydrogen is produced from Methane by cutting out the carbon atom and disposing of it, there is automatically a loss in volume from the Methane that went in to the Hydrogen that comes out. Then there is the fact that a lot of the energy stored in Methane came from the bonds between the Hydrogen and the Carbon. As such, Hydrogen has much less energy by volume than Methane, which means you have to use a lot more volume of Hydrogen to get the same energy out. Still worse is little discussed fact that Hydrogen itself is a greenhouse gas. Google it. Another fact, Hydrogen is the hardest to contain gas on the planet pretty much. So a lot is going to get out into the atmosphere. Look up why all the Hydrogen produced is mostly produced very near to where it is used. Industry avoids storing it and transporting it as much as possible. Another simple fact is that not all Hydrgen is burned when ignited. Look at all those flames in that video realize that each of them are outputting a portion directly into the atmosphere as pure Hydrogen. In the flame, there typically is never enough Oxygen atoms to bond with every Hydrogen atom. So some are always being dumped into the atmosphere to act as greenhouse gases. These are all simple facts of Hydrogen. Its fault isn't being any greater of a danger of blowing up your house than natural gas. Its that it will actually make climate change worse. On the surface it seems great. Dig even just a little, and it quickly becomes terrible.

Masz rację że wodór cały się nie spala np. z palnika ręcznego ale da się to poprawić. W urządzeniach które posiadają komorę spalania i są wyposażone w wentylator nie ma problemu z niedopałem wodorowym. Jeżeli chodzi o NOx to powstają one przy spalaniu z powietrzem i to prawda że wartości emisji są większe niż przy spalaniu pozostałych paliw gazowych. Ale myślę że to również jest kwestia odpowiednich modyfikacji palnika aby obniżyć ich emisję do poziomu, który odpowiada emisji dla pozostałych paliw gazowych.

[@stevengouws8684]

Climate change will become better with MORE CO2 not less like you are being brainwashed to believe. Ask any biologist. We need 0.7% CO2 in the atmosphere to have a healthy biosphere, we have 0.04%, way below requirement, at 0.02% everything on Earth dies. So yeah let's believe the BS and get to 0.02 asap so everything can die. Do a test yourself, with 2 identical plants. Put one in a richer CO2 environment than standard and watch it outgrow the "normal" plant by 200-300% in a few months.

[@whaddayawant2197]

Thank you! Someone with common sense about hydrogen! In Alberta they are testing hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (semi) and ranting about its clean energy. Nobody is digging deeper into the story. Plus you can't liquefy hydrogen like you can with propane or natural gas. Less range per fillup.

[@haddow777]

@@whaddayawant2197 doesn't surprise me that Alberta, or what I like to call faux Texas, is calling Hydrogen green energy. The oil industry is massively behind governments pushing for the Hydrogen economy. It's like big oil thinks it will be the wizard of Oz hiding behind the Hydrogen curtain duping people into believing they are reducing fossil fuel usage when they will really be using more.
