Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

[Super God]

Will the NaOH solution be used up over time or will we have to add water to the cell periodically?  If it's the latter, won't the water dilute the NaOH solution?

Hi Brian,

The OH^- ions are regenerated in the cell by reacting with the silver colloid catalyst:

2Zn + 4Ag_c⁺ --> 4Ag_c + 2Zn⁺²
4Ag_c + 4H₂O --> 4Ag_c⁺ + 2H₂ + 4OH^-
------------------------------------------------------------
2Zn + 4H₂O --> 2Zn⁺² + 2H₂ + 4OH^-

And on the surface of the tungsten electrode the following reaction takes place:

4H₂O + 4e^- --> 2H₂ + 4OH^-


So the OH^- is regenerated and will only be lost through splattering or vaporizing out of the NaOH solution. I just need to keep that from happening. Once the fuel cell in contained in the unit (future design) the water will be recycled as well and should be a sealed system. Right now I am working on one problem at a time.

I am thinking of a design right now that rebubbles the hydrogen through the cell liquid first before it is sent to the fuel cell. I will post a picture soon. I am busy with family activities today and tommorrow so it won't be until Monday at the soonest.

Thank you for your interest.

I attached a rough drawing. May give you an idea what I am thinking.

Good job on all of your work.  I wish I knew more in the chemistry department, it's not one of my interests unfortunately.  I like the electrical stuff more.  If and when a stable cell is produced, I plan on connecting tens of them together to drive an engine and generate electricity for my house.  Maybe putting one in a car too?  Think of the applications   It's pretty cool when you think about it.

Hi Brian,

Yes, it is pretty cool. That's why I have put so much effort into it. It IS the answer to the world's energy problems.

Have you seen the video where he had the go-kart reactor running before he put it on the go-Kart. It was putting out 70+ liters per minute.

Think about it. 70+ liter's per minute of hydrogen gas.

With no added power.

We (I) just have to figure out how he does it with such output and control. I will get there. It will just take time, and a will to reach for it.

I'm not quitting!!!!!

Thanks everyone for your interest.
