Water Converted into Explosive Gas - The Ultimate Hydrogen Generator - HHO

  • In this video, I will show you how to make a Hydrogen Generator that produces HHO gas. Electrolysis is used here to separate the Hydrogen from the Oxygen in Water. The HHO produced is highly combustible and can be used as a fuel source.
    I used Stainless Steel Hardware which is more expensive than normal steel or zinc-plated steel, however, it ensures that the electrodes do not corrode or contaminate the generator or the gas.
    For the electrolyte either Sodium Hydroxide or Potassium Hydroxide should be used, using table salt will not produce as much gas and it will also produce chlorine gas and turn the water yellow.

      My advice is use two bubblers when I was young I made one and only had one it back fired through the single bubbler and went to the main jar which was a pickle jar with the lid hot glued to seal it and increase the pressure of the gas, it blew the hot glued lid straight off and I wasn't sure if my hearing would come back, it did but I learned a valuable lesson there lol.

    you should put some medium-grade wire wool in the final pipe before the needle. this would have prevented a complete flashback to the bubbler. the air space above the water can be enough to cause an explosion, last thing you want is a glass bomb.
    Nice design, but risky being glass.

      @michaelwilson5055 Місяць тому

      @lostforwar5619 correct that's the purpose of the bubbler. You're also supposed to have a flashback arrestor as a primary safety and the water in the bubbler as a secondary.
      if the flashback to the bubbler pushes enough water out of the way almost like it did in the video, it could ignite the hydrogen.
      if you Google flashback arrestor you'll see small inline devices that either have a membrane or a fine/medium wire wool being sold to prevent this.
      Edit: ua-cam.com/video/JObaMblT8Bs/v-deo.htmlsi=IZV-QjCBg-p6l5ko
      this is a spring-loaded flashback arrestor with multi stage safety.

    wacky, I would use a plastic or metal container as a safety measure due to the pressure that the explosion makes inside the small space. And you could put a diode after the converter so that if there is unwanted contact between the plates, the current does not return with that amperage and damage the batteries.

    • @WackyInventions
      @WackyInventions  2 місяці тому +5

      It was really difficult to find an appropriate container, just for video purposes i wanted it to be see through and all the plastic containers i found just wouldn't seal properly, i did look thick glass and it withheld the pressure of the explosion, but platic would have definitely been better. I plan to make a dry cell in the future so that'll be stainless steel plates with thick polycarbonate plastic and should be alot safer :)

  • @calyvinmanvoice

    Don’t do this at home as others have said yes because of toxic heavy metal water contamination from electrodes, but also because it is very dangerous to have the hydrogen oxygen mixed, as you can see by the fire flashing through the line. it would be safer to have separate lines for the positive and negative electrodes, so the hydrogen can be collected in a low oxygen, non explosive state

    I do have a question, though, and that is; how would you go about separating the hydrogen and oxygen? I know I've seen devices in the past that would put a dividing wall between the cathodes and anode, and have a second exhaust from the separator jar, but I wonder if that's the most effective option?

      Thank you for the support 😁, It is possible to separate the oxygen and hydrogen, but for most applications its fine to have them mixed, most people split the two only to join it back together later which is pointless. Hydrogen needs oxygen to burn, and it also burns hotter with pure oxygen than if you were to ignite hygrogen gas in normal air as the concentration of oxygen is much lower in the air we breathe

    5:59 - your mistake is that you had to connect it diagonally, then the current spreading area would be around each electrode, in your case it spreads in a straight line from the electrode (+) to the electrode (-).
    It is dangerous to play with 2HO gas; use a check valve.

Also the nozzle is basically a surgical needle(very thin) and i cut the tip of it off so i dont stab myself and then made it round again with some pliers as it gets crushed when you try to cut it.

      Yes definitely, another word for boost converter is a step up converter, the boost converter is only needed to control the current, so you could just forget the circuit boatd all together if you have a powerful power supply. I just checked and that converter has a max of 6amps, so you would get less hho and you would need to make sure the current doesn't exceed 6amps as the converter would overheat.

    This seems like it'd make an awesome metal forge/melter, that you can run on renewable energy, doesn't take a ludicrous amount of amperage on your home circuits, and gets wicked hot while leaving no harmful pollutants. I always figured that since getting rid of my gas forge a long time ago I had wanted something that could be more "green" since I have hated fossil fuel since well before Greta Thunberg ... The only thing I'd wonder about is how can you can separate the O2 and H2 properly so that your storage tank is not quite so much of a huge bomb (i.e. have 2 separate tanks, that then mix in the burner assembly on the forge)?

    • @WackyInventions
      @WackyInventions  2 місяці тому

      As far as my imagination goes there are two main ways I can think of this being possible. One would be to make a really powerful on demand cell, so you wouldn't need to store any gas. This would probably be the safest, but you would definitely need to build a dry cell as they are more efficient and produce more gas. The other way would be like you mentioned to store it, if you build some sort of compressor and compressed it into a proper gas cylinder (e.g. like an oxygen or acetylene tank) either separately or together, but together would be easier as its difficult to make a dry hydrogen cell that separates the gas. Either way the oxygen to hydrogen ratio is perfect in hho so that shouldn't be an issue. I guess that storing it this way would be safe too with the correct fittings and fail safes , e.g. proper one way flow valves and appropriate nozzles.

    wouldnt wiring the battery terminals in parallel be more efficient than series? more voltage would just mean more heat and with a plate design increasing the voltage wouldnt really do much right? wouldnt you want as many amps as you can get? (p.s feel free to correct me in the comments im always open for new info)

    • @WackyInventions
      @WackyInventions  2 місяці тому

      I understand your concern, in this case I believe a series circuit would have been better for the reason that the boost converter has a minimum input voltage meaning that the cells in parralel wouldn't have had enough voltage to power the boost converter, also the total maximum power output would still be the same in parralel and in series.
      (Cell information, nominal voltage 3.7v , max amps 8amps (3 cells) for calculations below)
      P=IV Power =current x Voltage
      This is for series - 3.7v x 3cells =11.1v
      11.1v x 8amps = 88.8watts
      Parralel - 3.7v x 8amps = 29.6 watts
      Each cell produces 29.6 watts and there are 3 so thats a total of 88.8watts aswell
      Hope that helps 😊

    • @WackyInventions

Feel free to ask more questions, i will do my best to help 😊 also make sure the water is filled as high as possible so even if there is a back fire there will be less gas to combust in the event of an accident

The four electrodes are just to maximise the area, its like having 2 long electrodes but then cutting them in half and connecting it with wire. The boost converter was just used to control the current if you had powerful batteries or a power supply the boost converter wouldn't be needed, it was just so the batteries didn't over heat because the cell wanted more than 8 amps of current, but the batteries could only handle 8amps. Now i had 18650 cells that can handle 20amps continuous :)
