Water into Hydrogen - Making a Simple Hydrogen Generator from old battery - hho

[@Guilty-xu6gs]

My advice, that little torch bottle make sure it's plastic, cause when that blows up and it will , you don't want pieces of glass shooting out like a granade. Best practice is to put a check valve in front line protection , then a the bubbler . The purpose of of the bubbler is to take the explosion , so it saves the cell . The purpose of a check valve is to save the bubbler and you ...

[@ClementStrmiska]

​@@дядя-к4ыis it possible to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen after they are combined in that manner as he done?

[@MrChazz10]

Just a tip, if you separate the cathodes and the anodes and have separate collection reservoirs above each, you would be able to collect the hydrogen and oxygen separately. Just a tip 😘 Also you need to make sure you use distilled or as pure water as possible, read on to find out why. Although pure water is not conductive to electricity, any contaminant will do, a rock or pebble, even the anodes and cathodes themselves. I don't think you necessarily need the potassium salt and you definitely don't want any Sodium salt to be in the water you're using. Reason being if Sodium salts are present you will end up with chlorine gas, which is toxic. BTW this is exactly how Saltwater pools chlorinate water, the water flows from the filter to a device with electrified plates which split the salt in the water realising chlorine gas which dissolves into the water and essentially evaporates out over time. Because it exists as a gas other things called chlorine stabilisers or "sunscreen" are added and hold on to the chlorine weakly and release it slowly in the water.

[@Euer_Ernst]

Just some safety concerns 1. Don't touch the electrode from this old battery without gloves. 2. Defenetly don't use salt you end up with chlorine gas and this is toxic. 3. U shouldn't catch hydrogen and oxygen in the same volume, that's a very dangerous idea. It needs only 19 milli Joule to ignite the detonating gas ("hho") that means the static electricity from your clothe can be enough to blow your hands away. Better learn how electrolyzer really work and build it in the right way, not this self-destruction mechanism 😉

Надеюсь многие прочитают ваше сообщение и не будут повторять эксперимент из видео. И да, если уже собирать, то отдельно водород и кислород и да использовать кислоту, а не соль.

[@MrChazz10]

This is also one way that submarines can supplement their oxygen for extended stays underwater, electrolysing *pure* water to get the oxygen, but this is not practical for long when you only have a limited supply of pure water when surrounded by so much salt water, because it also takes alot of energy and time to filter/purify salt water, whether it's by boiling and condensing(distilling) or reverse osmosis (direct filtering). The other way is by "burning" what are called candles, which is very counter-intuitive because normal candles burn oxygen, but these "candles" give off oxygen. Although, adding more oxygen is pointless if you don't have a way to remove waste gases. Filtering is usually done by passing the air through filters which capture the carbon dioxide by reacting with it to produce less harmful substances. For example air can be filtered through calcium hydroxide which removes the carbon dioxide by reacting with it to produce calcium carbonate(chalk) and water. I love how it all comes down to chemistry and how the products of water electrolysis can be burnt and they produce exactly that from which they came, water. Even in the previously mentioned pools, saltwater pools slowly become more alkaline or basic from the chlorinator. As the water becomes more basic, an acid is added to correct the levels, and what's actually happening chemically is the Sodium hydroxides produced from chlorination react with the acid (which is usually hydrochloric acid, containing chlorine) and the products are just Salt and water, which can be used by the system all over again. *Salts and dissolved substances don't disappear with the water when it evaporates* Just saying, just in case 😅 (seen some pools almost as salty as the ocean 🤣)

[@MrChazz10]

@TheUwolus I suppose you don't want any kind of metallic salts. Salts are a union between elements that on their own are very volatile or toxic. E.g Sodium Chloride, Iron sulfate, Potassium chloride, copper chloride, Potassium nitrates.

Here in Brazil, a guy used this idea to insert hydrogen into the car's combustion chamber. It worked perfectly. He managed to drive about 200 km on just one liter of gasoline. To produce hydrolysis, he installed a gear on one of the rear wheels of his car. The gear took the movement of the wheel shaft to rotate a copper piston inside coils made of copper wire. The energy produced was sent to an auxiliary battery, whose electricity was used to produce electrolysis. After a while, this guy disappeared. We never heard from him again. I believe they gave him a lot of money to keep quiet and forget about the project. But now everyone knows how to do it, so it's all a matter of personal initiative or financial interest to make this idea popular and common in all vehicles.

The installation is good. I tried to do the same myself, only more primitive. I didn't succeed: too little hydrogen was released. If you want to repeat it, remember that the main thing is to ensure the tightness of the system, and this is very difficult, otherwise nothing will work at all. Also try to maximize the electrode area and power. I used a cropped charge from a 2A phone. You can use ordinary water - it also conducts current (only NOT distilled). If you take ordinary tap water, then hydrogen will turn out much cleaner and will burn with a blue flame, but in this case you will have to greatly increase the voltage, otherwise nothing will work. Good luck!

[@1KiNeTiK1]

Increase the surface of your electrodes. It's better to use stainless steel plates instead these rods.

[@Rotorhead1651]

Distilled water simply removes all impurities. Why would you not use it?

[@Slavich666]

@@Rotorhead1651 The fact is that pure H2O does NOT conduct current. Distilled water is pure H2O. If you take ordinary tap water, as I said above, then it contains impurities: all sorts of different salts and metal cations, which are conductors of electric current. That is why water seems to be a dielectric, but the current still conducts. Salt, acid or, as in the video, alkali is used to increase the content of metal cations in water and, accordingly, improve its ability to conduct electric current. However, these impurities are also involved in the electrolysis process, which is why other impurities also appear in the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, which makes it more dirty. If nothing is added to the water ( not distilled ) then the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen will turn out much cleaner, but you will need a much higher voltage for the electrolysis process.

I have always understood that a wet cell generator is inferior to a dry cell. I firmly believe that HHO has the potential to be a game changer. However, it must be done safely. The first method had no flashback arrestor. The second one, while it did have one, it was glass, which makes it highly unsafe. Using a simple check valve would be the best option. Furthermore, you could have used a 9v to power your device. I would personally avoid destroying batteries to obtain the parts needed. There are simpler and safer methods.

What do you use as electrodes? Carbon rods are great for the anodes (connected to battery positive), but not so vital for the cathodes. Not sure why you think disassembling carbon-zinc batteries is dangerous - it's much less dangerous than alkaline batteries (which are highly alkaline inside).

@@michaelnoble2432 using stainless steel plates in a dry cell is standard. Usually, with a rubber or neoprene gasket in between each layer. Destroying any battery is unnecessary to create an electrolyzer. Plus, the wet cell method is inefficient and not suitable for the long term.

[@michaelnoble2432]

@@P.I.E. interesting - in theory stainless steel will erode when used as the anode (carbon is far more resistant to this). How do they get around this problem? I think using AC might help by reversing which plate experiences oxidation 60 times per second?

[@P.I.E.]

@@michaelnoble2432 As far as corrosion goes, I am unsure. I am basing my information on others' experiences and builds. I have yet to build one myself, but I do plan to do so. Hopefully, as a future project video. DC is standard, but the idea of using AC also crossed my mind. But I believe that a higher voltage DC would be more efficient. These are topics and ideas I plan on exploring in my future build.

[@ZebbMassiv]

I really like the battery salvaging and the 3d printed custom bracket but the design needs more engineering to get pure hydrogen, no corrosion issues, and fine brass wool flashback arrestors.

[@Merlin3189]

The brass wool might work for methane and similar gases, but I don't think it would work with a (near stoichiometric) mixture of hydrogen and oxygen. The flame velocity is very high and I think it would pass through quite tiny gaps before enough cooling to douse the flame. I suppose if it were fine enough mesh it might be possible, but would a very fine mesh be at risk of being broken or melted - either producing bigger holes or clogging up the holes? An interesting problem, but perhaps just try to keep the gases separate.

[@severrnijKGU]

You could just make a resistance heater with that one battery and youd get the same heat. The power from the little battery is splitting the water up at that same power rate. Then the flame can only reassemble that water at the maximum of that power from the battery. Theoretically. But there will be losses so itd actually be less. Some losses can be negotiated away, but a large bit of losses are nonnegotiable. Probably something like 41% efficiency at the max

[@oliverpolden]

"Great video! I have a question: before inserting the needle into the second small cylinder or jar to create fire 🔥, is it regular water inside the small container? Or still mix with potassium hydroxide. Also, can the water run out of the small jar or can while there is a continuous flow of hydrogen from the large container to the small one?" Or will it be filled with water bubbles due to the continuous hydrogen into the small cylinder?

[@DizzyTheEvil]

[@hassankhurramtech]

Its regular water, its actually a flashback arrest, HHO is extremely flammable since it has hydrogen and oxygen together and just needs ignition or high temp to ignite, so that bubbler doesn't let the flame pass back to the generator cell. Its a safety valve but transparent soft tubing isn't best for production since it can melt and cause boom.

Also hho can inplote under pressure pure hydrogen can be compress but HHO no because contains oxygen and if you compress the 2 molecules BOOM

Let's think: Install a demineralized water reservoir somewhere close to your car's engine. This reservoir must have an internal membrane separating the water volumes in a 2:1 ratio. Install an electrode on each side of the membranes connected to the car battery poles. When starting the car, the electric current in the electrodes will carry out electrolysis, separating oxygen from hydrogen. Oxygen must be released into the environment. The hydrogen must be sent to burn in the car's combustion chamber. This will exponentially increase the vehicle's performance, reducing common fuel consumption by 10 times. This test has already been carried out countless times by mechanics and car owners in Brazil. What is the world waiting for?

[@AldousHuxley7]

Stan Meyer look him up. He put frequencies and had other equipment to split the water much more efficiently. Got like 90 mpg

[@exisfohdr3904]

Energy out is equal to energy in. The amount of energy that can be used by water electrolisis is significantly lower than that of hydrocarbons. This would require significantly larger quantities of water than current gas tanks. This introduces a larger mass rrquired to be carried that decreases the efficiency of an already less efficient system. Additionally, when the hydrogen is burned, it will recombine with oxygen and form water. All engines require lubricants, so we will still be dependent upon petrochemicals. This presents a problem. Oil and water dont work well together inside an engine. The viscosity of the oil becomes compromised by the water and leads to excessive wear on the mechanical parts. Additionally, the water will cause meticulously machines surfaces within the engine to become pitted from oxidation much fadter than hydrocarbons.

[@PRIM1984]

Problem here; this breaks the rules of thermodynamics, as it takes just as much energy to separate hydrogen and oxygen as it does to burn and recombine them, and even then its not going to be quite as efficient because you just discarded an enriched oxidiser. The only way I see this helping in gasoline engines is maybe that hydrogen can act as sort of a psuedo-anti-detonant injection, but at that point you might as well just use the water outright like Chance-Vought did during WW2

[@rexroyulada6267]

@@PRIM1984 US Australia Japan India and many more countries have already independently invented water powered cars look them up. Stan Meyers was one of the best. You can split water w very little energy using electrolysis in conjunction with resonant frequencies and some other now unknown tech. Oil stayed clean for 100k miles. Stan Meyer was offered one billion $ by big oil he refused at the cafe and immediately started vommitting black goo and told his bro in law "they killed me" and died right then and there.
