  • General purpose small homemade oxygen generator for using in the home workshop. Simple components you can find anywhere make it easy to put together this electrolytic device.
    Caution: Do not breathe this oxygen, it is not pure. Usually water from the utilities contains salts which can contaminate the oxygen produced with chlorine!

    Dear Glanze Epic, thanks for your comment; originally, the project was intended for a small torch, such as the kind used in jewelry. However, it can inspire somebody to keep researching and experimenting in order to produce larger volumes of oxygen. However, several things must be taken into account: Electrolysis consumes a lot of electricity; oxygen and hydrogen must not mix, they are explosive together; large volumes production involves a lot of heat production also, so the materials used must withstand high temperatures: any intention of medical use must be supervised closely by qualified medical personnel, even "known good" oxygen from tanks can be dangerous if excessive; water used in the process must be distilled water, since raw water from the tap may have chlorine salts dissolved as well, yielding to the production of chlorine along with oxygen; finally, if pumps are to be used to try to store the oxygen, they must be special, oil-less pumps, since oxygen is a strong oxydizer, and many objects, including metals, may burn violently in the presence of pure oxygen. Regards!

    This is a simple electrolytic separator. An important thing to note is that this process uses a LOT of electricity. It's a very costly process due to this. If you're considering separating out your own oxygen and/or hydrogen to save money, you likely won't. The cost of electricity will likely be more than purchasing the respective gasses from a manufacturer.

      Thanks, Frederick, for your kind comment!!! The generator was thought for using in a small welding torch, but with certain modifications, it can be used for other applications. First of all, the quality of the oxygen must be much better. Distilled water must be used, so no salts are present, which could pose a danger of producing other gases along with the oxygen, such as chlorine. A solar still can be used to save power in such a process. With regards to the amount of liters of oxygen per minute, that can be determined by the size of the generator itself, and MUST be checked by a health professional. Something else would be the energy consumed by a bigger generator, maybe solar panels can help here.

    My school buddies dad had a machine in the back of his muffler shop that used this process to make oxygen. The machine looked very old in the 70’s so I would guess it would have been made in the 1920 to 1940 era. It took up about a 6 foot long bench. Just electric and city water hookup. He never had to buy oxygen for his shop. Plenty of pressure to run a cutting torch.

    Dear Gorilla Disco, the project is for supplying small amounts of oxygen for a mini torch, the amount of hydrogen produced simply goes to the atmosphere, where it recombines with oxygen to form water, ignited by static electricity discharges. It can also be collected and used to feed a propane fridge, however, I omitted this in order to keep the project free from the dangers of hydrogen accumulation and explosion. However, with due precautions, both gases can be stored and used separately.

    Dear Christoper Eduardus, some gases are commonly found at standard temperatures and pressures as diatomic molecules, such as hydrogen (H2), nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2), fluorine (F2), and chlorine (Cl2). Other gases, which have their outer orbit completed, such as the rare or noble gases, exist as monoatomic molecules, these are are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. Oxygen and Hydrogen, when separated from their compounds, naturally assume their diatomic molecule structure.

      Thanks, Nick, for your kind comment!!! The generator was thought for using in a small welding torch, but with certain modifications, it can be used for other applications. First of all, the quality of the oxygen must be much better. Distilled water must be used, so no salts are present, which could pose a danger of producing other gases along with the oxygen, such as chlorine. A solar still can be used to save power in such a process. With regards to the amount of liters of oxygen per minute, that can be determined by the size of the generator itself, and MUST be checked by a health professional. Something else would be the energy consumed by a bigger generator, maybe solar panels can help here. Please check this drawing at

    Great video. I want to know what is the proportion of caustic soda to be mixed with water. Please share.

    • @eltunene
      @eltunene  3 роки тому +5

      A 40% ratio should be fine, that is, 40 grams of caustic soda per liter of water. You can slowly add about 10 grams of caustic soda to half a liter of cold water, then pour the solution into a bigger container, and repeat the operation. CAUTION: CORROSIVE AND DANGEROUS SOLUTION! do not add water to the caustic soda, but caustic soda to one liter of water little by little, since the solution generates some heat and if using a small amount of water, the water can boil and burst. Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves to prevent spilling of caustic soda to your eyes and skin in general. Always use enough water so it can absorb the heat and dissipate it, and add the soda into the water and not the other way. It is better to dissolve a small amount of caustic soda first and give it a try for operation of the cell. You can make the solution in a tall glass of water stirring slowly and adding some grams at a time, handle the solution with care. Do not touch eyes or mouth. On the other hand, the oxygen generated may not be suitable for breathing, due to other salts present in the water. Please check with a physician as to purity of the gas, before attempting to use it for clinical purposes. This project is intended for a small torch, with low volumes of oxygen produced.

After a while, the "screws" will not work (they will not produce gas). A small source of weak voltage and current is more suitable for galvanizing than for the production of oxygen and hydrogen. You cannot absorb hydrogen in the free space of the box, but in the bell, as you have with oxygen. Replenishing water with a "toilet" mechanism is very optimistic - you probably expect a large production of gas, but this is a complete mistake. If you industrially produced hydrogen by electrolysis with a power input of several kW, it would be understandable. In the domestic embodiment, the water is replenished through connected vessels, i.e. by another "toilet" mechanism. It is also necessary to make the water conductive, preferably table salt. My hydrogen and oxygen (Brown's gas) generator has the right design and power source. It can continuously supply a small burner with which it melts glass.

      NaOh acts as electrolyte to conduct DC current through water. The percentage is usually decided by current limit of power supply, but not everyone will have multimeter at home. So eyeballing the bubble and wall socket temperatures works just fine. If you add too much you will burn the wall socket.
      For practical purposes. Start with very little until you see bubble rising, and then keep adding until you see whole screw covered with bubbles. Keep and eye on wall plug temperatures every 5 minutes, warm is ok but hot is not. If you add too much NaOH you will burn the wall socket.

      You´re right, the larger the area the more contact with the solution and the higher the amount of O2 produced. The problem is if oxygen is too abundant, there is the risk of a fire.

By using larger electrodes, and maybe a higher voltage, you can get more hydrogen and oxygen (separately, in two independent hoses. You can build it differently by using two cells for oxygen and hydrogen, using PVC pipes. One basic thing to keep in mind is to leave the PVC open in the bottom and the electrodes at the proper position in order to have the liquid down until the electrode is not making contact with electrolyte at all, so the reaction will stop when the PVC pipe is almost full with gas. This will insure the reaction will stop and the gas wo'nt "spill around" the electrodes, allowing both gases to mix, which will not be safe at all.
