Description
CONTROLLER FOR REGULATING THE PRODUCTION OF OXYHYDROGEN GAS FROM WATER WITH ASYMMETRICALLY VENTED ELECTRODE ARRANGEMENT OF ELECTROLYSER MODULES. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates Method and Apparatus for regulating the production of browns gas by electrolysis of water with an Electronic controller and Asymetrical arrangement of Electrodes in Modular type Electrolysers . The present invention is useful for retrofit system of IC engines & automobile industry as fuel supplement to increase the efficiency and reduce carbon emission, Flame application in various industries, As additive gas in Furnaces and Incinerators, Atomic waste neutralization.
Background of the Invention
The electrolysis of water to produce Hydrogen and Oxygen in presence of an acid or base is well established. Electrolysis processes involving water are of considerable importance commercially. Such processes involve the electro deposition of metals, electrochemical synthesis procedures, electrochemical loading of electrodes for batteries, etc. A particularly important industrial process involving the electrolysis of water is the production of hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is an excellent source of energy and has many other uses in chemical technology and industry.
It is highly desirable to reduce the cost of processes involving the oxidation of water including hydrogen production. Most of this cost is involved with the consumption of electrical energy. Reduction of cell voltage at a given current density reduces the amount of electrical energy needed to produce a given amount of hydrogen gas.
Brown's gas can be used for a variety of applications as (mentioned above), from small scale welding, Jewelry work, and acrylic polishing, to internal combustion engines of vehicle and ship engines. Many more as mentioned in existing state of art and Technology details
The drawback of exiting state of art is the lack of control over the rate of electrolysis, with the result that even for slight differences in the rate of required output, different designs have to be made.
This drawback has been overcome by a method of regulating the average rate of electrolysis by connecting the rectified (DC) power supply to an electronic switch which is switched on and off for different intervals of time by means of a Pulse Width Modulating Circuit and pulse frequency, this resulting in different rates of electrolysis, and hence a large range of output of Brown gas can be obtained from the same module.
The drawback of the existing state of art is the output of HHO gas is Less of various electrolyzer unit due to over heating of electrolyte water caused due to leakage current flow between the plates or pipe type electrode in electrolysers unit cell (EUC). This requires temperature control system, cooling systems or water (electrolyte) pumping system which consumes energy to run. This reduces the over-all efficiency of the system.
The drawback in the existing state of art is non- modular with only specific application and cannot cater various applications. This leads to difficulties in manufacturing because a large number of models of different designs have to be manufactured to cater to different applications, and also results in the need
to hold large inventory of components. An 80cc to 200cc 2 wheeler engine needs various output model.
A 700 Cc to 2500 cc automobile engine need more models. In the same way the Flame applications need various models. ETC
The primary drawback of current machinery is the lack of control over the rate of electrolysis, with the result that even for slight differences in the rate of required output, different designs have to be made. The current machinery (state of art) has lesser efficiencies due to leakage current causing overheating. The existing state of art needs robust over heating protection systems. This leads to difficulties in manufacturing because a large number of models of different requirement have to be manufactured to cater to different applications, and also results in the need to hold large inventory of components. This drawback has been overcome by a method of regulating the average rate of electrolysis by connecting the rectified (DC) power supply to a frequency switching of Power transistors and modular type of Electrolysers
Object of invention:
The primary objective of the invention is to regulate the production of Brown's gas by using a frequency switching of Power transistors. The utility of Brown's gas in various fields need not be specified. The present invention has following object and which are not limited thereof.
1) Retrofit system of I.C engines and automobile industry.
Any fossil fuel combusts more efficiently in presence of Oxyhydrogen gas thus saving fossil fuel and reducing carbon emissions in all Internal and External
Combustion Engines . Various retrofit kits need to be developed for all automobile industry, Electrical-generator sets, Boats and ships, railway engines, helicopter, aircraft engines, Rocketry and Satellite launch vehicles
2) Flame application in various industries.
Oxyhydrogen gas flame can melt down any element as molecular fusion of Hydrogen and Oxygen material. Oxy hydrogen flame has the capacity of thermonuclear reaction. Flames from oxyhydrogen gas can be used in Metal cutting, soldering and brazing, Jewelry manufacturing, I.C processing in electronics, Acrylic polishing, Bead-making, Glass processing.
3) Furnaces and Incinerators
In presence of oxyhydrogen gas any fuel burns more efficiently and reduces carbon emissions, which reduce pollution. Various models for Boiler furnaces, Incinerators, Kiln operations and waste treatment plants and Bio waste disposal can be developed which shall benefit the environment by reducing carbon emissions.
4) Atomic waste neutralization.
Oxy-hydrogen flame has the capacity to reduce radioactive radiation by 90 % from radio active waste and other ancillary materials to be disposed safely. Some experiments have been done at Chalk river atomic station (Canada) which has shown positive results. Retrofit system of I.C engines and automobile industry
Statement of invention
The traditional method of varying the rate of electrolysis involves varying the voltage so that the current varies. Current is related to voltage by the relation
I=V/R
where I is the current in amperes,
V is the applied voltage and
R is the resistance in Ohms.
However, the voltage at which electrolysis starts is dependent upon the chemical and physical properties of the electrolyte, and once the threshold voltage is applied, electrolysis will start. Higher voltages, though resulting in higher current, and resulting in higher rate of electrolysis, result in wastage of energy through heating the electrolyte. The non-obviousness is that instead of varying the voltage to vary the rate of electrolysis, the electrolytic cell is switched on and off, thus varying the average rate of electrolysis
The invention device has provided with a controller to control for the manufacturing of Brown's gas generators for a variety of industrial and other purposes
Other machines use higher voltages to obtain a larger amount of Brown's gas. However, the electrolysis takes place at a certain threshold depending on the acid or base added to the water and the excess voltage results in heating of the water instead of production of Browns gas. In the present invention, the voltage is retained at a level as close as practical to the optimal voltage for
electrolysis and the power is switched on and off using a High frequency switching of Power transistors. This prevents wastage of energy in addition to flexibility in obtaining output of Brown's gas over a wide range of applications.
