Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

@NssB,

What more do you expect me to do, I told him the stuff is dangerous and some of the things it does.

If he wants to work with it he will check it out, apart from the fact you do not purchase it at the Woolworth delicatessen counter. He will get proper warnings about how to handle it when he gets the stuff and he will probably have to sign a form saying he understands the dangers.

What would you want me to do? Not mention it in the first place??

Political correctness gone mad.

@Hans

lol....not quite PC gone mad, and perhaps I was a bit harsh. I guess I'm just thinking about the folk with parents who keep dangerous chemicals in the shed for a rainy day 

"Hydro...blah de blah.....wait a minute.....that bottle dad has......hmmm.........lets go see what it can do to these carbonised...."

OK, its unlikely.....but ya know

OK boys let's all kiss and make-up      lol.

Looking over the options so far I think Hans' idea of electroplating a brass mesh is probably the safest to do.

I think I will go in this direction unless something better pops up.

Thanks for your opinions everyone.

G'day Dave,

You would be far better off to make your electrodes up from brass mesh and get it electroplated, more bang for buck!

Hans

How can we avoid the platinum plating ?
It is very expensive.

Has anyone tried graphite beads with "sucked in" colloidal silver ?
You could pour graphite beads into colloidal silver water and the beads
will get "coated" a bit with silver atoms.
Depends which concentration your colloidal silver water has.
Use a colloidal silver electrolyser as used in health application and
let it run for at least 1 hour, then you have really good amount of silver atoms.
If you then pour graphite beads into the colloidal silver water, the silver atoms
will clogg onto the high surface area of the graphite beads and when
H2 gas enter this area it will be split up into ions.

This should then be able to split the H2 and O2 gas into
conducting and voltage generating H3O+ and OH- ions
and charge up the graphite beads and graphite rods.

Surely you need 2 containers with graphite beads,
one for the H2 and one for the O2 gas and
also need an electrolyte like NaCl or NaOH in water dissolved.
The 2 containersmust be connected via a ions conducting bridge,
so a handkerchief of saltwater or diaphragma will do.
Then stick one graphite rod into each graphite beads container and you
have your fuel cell and voltage at the graphite rods.


Sorry, did not yet have time to test it myself.

Hi Stefan,

I have 500ppm colloidal silver solution.

What kind of graphite rods are you talking about. Is this something they sell in an automobile parts store, or someplace else. Perhaps you have a link on the internet I can follow to purchase them.

I could even test it in my reactor.

Thank you for your input.
