    Shouldnt you be aiming for 2V at each plate? So if input is 12V in then there should be 5 plates between the - and + live plates?
    Also there should not be two live plates beside each other? If you fix that it might get you to 200W/L

    • @CatboyChemicalSociety
      @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому

      it is 2V per plate as you have 4 neutral plates between 2 charged plates leading to the voltage divider rule which allows for a nice 2V per plate. A rule of thumb is plate number = 1/2 of voltage input. so 12V = 6 plates and 24V = 12 plates and so on.

      Depends on the displacement of your car's engine. Different displacements require different rates of hydrogen production. More is not always better.

    How can ı seperate oxygen and hydrogen for alkalin electrolyzer.

    • @senzahydrogen
      @senzahydrogen  Рік тому

      Due to the principle of operation, it is difficult to separate hydrogen and oxygen directly in an alkaline electrolyzer. It may be necessary to separate the HHO gas in the outgoing HHO gas by means of special components or processes.

    • @CatboyChemicalSociety
      @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому +1

      @@senzahydrogen you can seperate it if you have a porous cloth between each plate stack along with half gaskets to act as feed lines for each compartment then have common input for water and 2 inputs for gases where half gaskets and full gaskets sit between the membranes and plates to have alternating output for each respective chamber.
      This however requires feed pressure and decent flow rate in order to accomplish seperation of product and the pressure, flow rate and input/output cross section needs to be fine tuned to prevent diffusion of microbubbles of H2 through the porous barriers. So yes you can seperate the gases with an alkaline electrolyzer and this is known as a pressurized alkaline electrolyzer. The H2 and O2 microbubble laden water enters 2 holding tanks that meet at the bottom with a pipe and a pump to re feed it into the cell.

    • @CatboyChemicalSociety
      @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому

      use a pressurized alkaline electrolyzer design with half gaskets and full gaskets between each porous seperator to allow for seperate output per chamber. Remember to note the polarity used as reversing it will alternate the products produced per output line.

    • @CatboyChemicalSociety
      @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому +1

      use a heat exchanger to remove the heat dumped into the water. A general rule is heat produced = 1/2 of input assuming 50% efficiency the rest goes into heat so if you put 12V at 50A for instance you have 600W of input so 300W of cooling required for the water to not overheat or boil imagine having a 300W water heater device basically.

    What is Alkaline?

    • @senzahydrogen
      @senzahydrogen  Рік тому +1

      "Alkaline" is a word used to describe the property of a substance that can dissolve in water and make the pH of the solution greater than 7. In our daily life, some common alkaline substances include detergents, baking soda, and even handmade soap. In an alkaline hydrogen generator, "alkaline" refers to using an alkaline solution (such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) to help decompose water and produce hydrogen gas. This is an efficient method because an alkaline environment can electrolyze water at a lower voltage.

      Firstly, I would not recommend that you use the gas produced by alkaline hydrogen generator for use in your car. This will cause the corrosive alkaline mist to damage the car engine. Secondly the amount of HHO gas going into the car needs to be determined by the displacement and model of your engine. You can refer to this article.senzahydrogen.com/more-hydrogen.html

      Energy conversion efficiency with hydrogen fuel cells is roughly 60-80%. Of course you could go for the simpler option and let the hydrogen burn directly to produce heat. Just like with gas.😄

    @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому

    great video for pilot scale setups but you cannot or should not scale this up to industrial levels eg 1000A as those levels of oxyhydrogen increase the probability of things going wrong. Thus for scale up you need a pressurized alkaline electrolyzer with porous seperators to seperate H2 and O2 at the cost of some efficiency due to added resistance but still less expensive than membrane electrolysis.

    • @senzahydrogen
      @senzahydrogen  Рік тому

      You're right. This is more of an experimental model to demonstrate a small alkaline hydrogen electrolyzer. For industrialization, more things would need to be considered, such as safety, maintainability, cost, etc.

    • @senzahydrogen
      @senzahydrogen  6 місяців тому

      This alkaline hydrogen generator requires the addition of strong alkalis such as NaOH or KOH. This will cause the final product to produce chlorides, which is not safe. Unless you add a purification module at the end. However, I would recommend you use a PEM hydrogen generator. It only uses pure water for electrolysis, and the only by-products are hydrogen, oxygen, and some water vapor. This is much safer. You can visit our website at senzahydrogen.com/products/pem-hydrogen-generator to choose a suitable PEM hydrogen generator for you. Or you can email us directly at service@senzahydrogen.com.

      @CatboyChemicalSociety Рік тому

      those numbers are wrong because you are forgetting about 50% efficiency so only 300W is used for actual H2 production not 600W. The only way to increase efficiency is to use better electrodes ideally a nickel cathode as it has a lower H2 evolution potential than steel. Alkaline conditions also raise H2 evolution potential which leads to more losses but acidic conditions require exotic electrodes like Ir-Ta as your anode and Pt as your cathode. That setup has greater efficiency than this around 85% instead of 50% but as you can tell its not economically viable. This is why methane steam reforming is still the main way to produce hydrogen though japanese researchers are trying for radiolysis due to the huge excess of energy surplus used. I suggest using nickel plated electrodes in your cell to atleast bump up efficiency by a tiny bit or just put more POWER!!. and use the heat produced in some other process that requires preheating coils.

    • @senzahydrogen
      @senzahydrogen  2 роки тому

      Hydrogen generators require electricity to generate hydrogen. Motorbike gasoline is needed to burn to generate electricity to produce hydrogen. The hydrogen is mixed with petrol to burn it, which effectively increases the burning efficiency of petrol. But you cannot run a motorbike with just a hydrogen generator. Alternatively you can prepare the hydrogen in advance and fill the vehicle with hydrogen bottles. Then use a hydrogen fuel cell to convert the hydrogen into electricity to power the electric vehicle. But the safety of this needs to be further proven.
