HYDROGEN GAS SCRUBBER

      
Document Number 03111548
Status Pending

Abstract

A hydrogen gas scrubber suitable for use with hydrogen gas generators. The hydrogen gas scrubber is in the form of a vessel having a top portion a bottom portion. Gas enters the bottom portion of the vessel. The gas must bubble up through the scrubbing liquid in the bottom portion of the vessel in order to reach the outlet opening in the top portion of the vessel. It is recommended that a filter element be positioned in the top portion of the vessel so that the gas must also pass through the filter element in order to exit through the outlet opening.

Abstract

A water reservoir and electrolysis cell combination that has a flow connection between a lower fluid port of the water reservoir and an upper fluid port of the electrolysis cell. The flow connection includes a first conduit with an inner bore which serves as a first flow path for the flow of water by force of gravity from the water reservoir to an outlet for the first conduit positioned within the electrolysis cell. The second conduit is concentric to the first conduit and defines an annular space between the outer surface of the first conduit and the inner surface of the second conduit which serves as a second flow path for an upward flow of gas from the electrolysis cell to the water reservoir.

  • C25B 1/044 - Hydrogen or oxygen by electrolysis of water producing mixed hydrogen and oxygen gas, e.g. Brown's gas [HHO]
  • C25B 9/75 - Assemblies comprising two or more cells of the filter-press type having bipolar electrodes
  • F02M 25/12 - Engine-pertinent apparatus for adding non-fuel substances or small quantities of secondary fuel to combustion-air, main fuel or fuel-air mixture adding acetylene, non-waterborne hydrogen, non-airborne oxygen, or ozone the apparatus having means for generating such gases

Method and apparatus for addressing blow-back when hydrogen generators are attached to combustion engines to enhance performance

      
Application Number 13962012
Grant Number 09291129

Abstract

A method and associated apparatus are described for addressing blow-back when a hydrogen generator is attached to a combustion engine to enhance performance. The method involves positioning a filter with a porous flame tolerant core upstream of the combustion engine on a supply line leading from the hydrogen generator to the combustion engine. The method also involves surrounding the porous flame tolerant core with a hydrophilic filter medium. The hydrophilic filter medium serves as a trap for water vapor passing through the filter in a first direction and the hydrophilic filter medium moistened by water vapor assists in retarding flames passing through the filter in a second direction.
