Thanks deltat,

VERRRRYYY INTERESTING.

See, the small amount of volts required to regenerate the electrode tells me this reactor should work. I was replating the zinc with electrical energy with only about a half an amp. The fuel cell I will have produces over 2 amps. There should be plenty of excess energy to spare.

This is a story only on the hydrogen producing technology. Nothing about a fuel cell reactor; but I think that will be on the horizon soon. For me, probably by the end of this week or next week.

We are living in an exciting time in history everyone. The hydrogen revolution is now a train that will not be stopped. Like it says in the article, "hydrogen production on-demand without external input of energy." Dr. Linnard Griffin has done it and survived.

Welcome to the future.

This is just an update on the continuing experiment using the zinc/aluminum electrode.

The experiment has been going on a little over a day now. The hydrogen gas is still coming off the tungsten at the same rate. At this point there is really no way to tell if the zinc is replating, although when I look through the cell in front of a light I can see what appears to be "threads" or thread-like deposits clinging to the zinc electrode. This may be evidence of zinc replating but I am not sure.

I added a few more tungsten electrodes to speed up the hydrogen production and also speed up the use of zinc. This may give me evidence of replating sooner. Still, it is difficult for me to tell at this time if this is working. All I can really do is allow the reaction to continue for a longer period of time and make observations of any changes to the cell and its components.

I may take a fresh aluminum electrode and place it in the solution, just to see if any zinc replates on it. This may give me an indication as to whether the aluminum electrode in the zinc electrode is encouraging the immediate replating of the zinc.

Thank you for your interest.

Great replication of the concept! The internal Al electrode is genius! The threaded bay will make it easy to check the aluminums condition after prolonged use in the cell and absolutely ensures minimal hydroxide exposure. Also I just wanted to add that the "thread like" apearence on the zinc electrode is almost definitely reduced zinc. When this happens in commercial plating they refer to it as "zinc wiskers". Commercial electroplaters use cyanide complexes to help prevent this wisker effect. I'm quite interested to see how the rest of this specific experiment will play out.

Good Luck,

Hi Dingus,

I think you're right about the plating. I looked at it after coming home from work and it does look kind of grainy and hairlike threads. This looks promising. Only a long term test will tell, but this would make it simple. So I will keep this going and once the reactor you put together arrives here I will load it up and get it operating.

By the way  my fuel cell arrived today. Yeeessssssssss!!!!!! : ;

This should be an interesting period of time. I will do my best to make it work. It may take a few days to get everything put together, but it should be pretty cool.

Thanks everyone for your interest.
