Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

[motofox]

Maybe if the oxygen and hydrogen was channeled through dense coils of the wire, Like a bottle of coke, when all the gas rises to the neck of the bottle. If the coils of wire where in this neck maybe it would increase the power. If this worked, it would go well with the vertical cell design.

I like the concept motofox,

Maybe an electrolyte filled tube going upward with platinum coated mesh all the way up and filling the tube, Maybe a variation on that idea.

Thanks very much

Dave (RR2),

Here's a cheap-o way to make a fuel cell that I've tried with impressive results. I ran across this Vided about 6 months ago

Make your own Fuel cell (making Alkaline Fuel Cell cheaply) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cQg0Ur9Cko&NR=1

Materials needed to make Alkaline Fuel Cell
Plexiglas Glass for housing
Inner tube for gasket
Plexiglases
Nickel pieces for electrodes
Fine SS Wire mesh as fine as possible SS wire mesh
Filter paper
cut pieces of pipe heads for gas ports
Electrolyte is sodium hydroxide, (1molar NaOH)
Platinize your electrodes with a solution of
Hexachloroplatinate (H2PtCl x H2O)
about 50$ for a gram, last a long time

Regards,

Walterj

Hi Walter,

I posted this link before for the fuel cell. The only problem was I couldn't buy the hexachloroplatinate. It is classified in the United States as a hazardous substance and therefore they only sell it to companies or corporations that qualify to handle such substances.

Now I work with dangerous chemicals everyday, so no problem for me, but my company would not allow me to order it through them because they would be liable if I was injured.

So the video is great, but it does me no good. Only for schools and companies that want to do that type of research.

This video you posted a link to is actually the model I am using to put platinum wires into the reactor directly. It is really based off the same design. The reactor is filled with electrolyte (just like their fuel cell) it separates the hydrogen and oxygen, and the ions can pass through the chambers. So you see, it is the same idea except it is built right into the reactor. I just need to platinize a mesh and Hans suggested this earlier, so I do appreciate all the suggestions. One of them will eventually get this project successfully completed.

Thanks for your interest.

Anyone have any idea how to strip the carbon off the of the platinum coated beads found in used automotive Catalytic converters?

They are round and many are large enough to drill a hole through, they can then be mounted like a Sishkabob using conductor rod and then they (Rods/beads) can be stacked creating a lot of surface area (this is good) to create a good fuel cell.

This is more work than fine screen or wire but could be more productive than the previous, but not as good as nanotubes.

"Just another hairbrained idea"

No need to respond unless someone has a solution to the cleaning off of the carbon issue.
