Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

[darchorse]

Yes thank you Dr Griffin - you are a Hero of the first order! Thank you from me and my kids for starters. This is truly fantastic - the stuff of dreams. I'm off to buy stuff to make my cell oh yea!! lol

RR2 - do you know if the electricity produced is enough to completely regenerate the zinc electrode?

Hi Everyone,

We still don't have a closed loop on this one yet. All I have right now is a hydrogen producing reaction that can run a fan. I could take a rod of aluminum, immerse it in concentrated NaOH solution, and it would do the same thing while consuming (oxidizing) the aluminum. The zinc regeneration hasn't been done on THIS setup yet, but it should work based off my previous experiments. This is really still a jigsaw puzzle that needs to be put together to get the whole picture. So far I've just been investigating individual pieces: hydrogen production, oxygen production, zinc regeneration, zincate formation, etc.

I need to take this reactor apart again, clean it out, fix the leaks, and get it running again. The purpose of this unit is to learn how to run and maintain the reaction. The output seems dinky right now, but I am getting cross chamber contamination and leakage from the gas and the area around the electrodes. I am also getting entrapment of the gas between the horizontal electrodes. All these problems combined are sapping from my output. Also, the fuel cell technology is expensive. In fact, it's the most expensive aspect of the whole operation. So there is still a few hurdles to overcome.

Dr. Griffin's demonstration video of his tiny reactor is very inspiring. I can only imagine the number of failures and mistakes he has made over the years.

While I fully agree with your point Resin, there are many ballances in materials to find yet, the obervation of O2 at the anode(s) is a super good thing for us redox fans. That is what excited me most about this whole project. That "effect" coupled with the "5th metal" added to the anodes further reducing zyncates spontaniously. Plus a new tip from the man himself that none of us have fully put in to time trials yet. You must admit, things look really good... Better than most. ::grin:: As long as the oxygen is being released for free we are in the green as far as energy goes. The more spontanious oxygen in ratio to hydrogen the more green we get. Since the fuel cell technology available is highly efficent with heat as a biproduct that can fuel the endothermic reaction, this makes closing the loop even more imaginable. I see amazing things coming from this research. Lots of ballances to find though...

I truely do think this has the potential to be either CoP>1 or CoP=infinity system.
It's just a matter of time till its even further proven.

Congrats again,

P.S. If you log all power consumed from your fuel cell, in a few weeks you can try the low voltage reduction cycle and measure power used till O2 production stops. That ratio of power used over many cycles should reveal an accurate CoP.

Hey, a quick question inbetween:

>I need to take this reactor apart again, clean it out, fix the leaks, and get it running again.
How do you "clean it out" ?
Just water ?
Do you recycle the "water" like the Dr. ?

BTW: Dr. Linnard silently here ?
What about licensing ? How to license ? (H2 Flow measurement ?)

Thanks for a quick reply
Bye,

PS: My parts arrived and i am starting to build right now....

By clean it out I mean I will save the electrolyte solution but I need to drain and flush out the reactor with water so I can fix the leaks. I need a clean surface, most likely clean the areas with isopropyl alcohol to get rid of any residues.

Dr. Griffin popped in a couple of times to suggest a couple of experiments. Other than that he really hasn't said much. My guess is he is getting a kick out of our research.

He's years ahead of anything we are doing here now, that's for sure. We are still groping in the dark.
