Abstract
A system and method are provided in at least one embodiment to process water to produce gas that can be separated into at least two gas flows using a water treatment system having a disk-pack rotating in it to cause out gassing from the water. In a further embodiment, the method and system use the gas released from the water to produce substantially fresh water from the processed salt water.
Claims8
A method for producing gas from water comprising:
- filling a water tank with water sufficient to cover any inlet and any discharge of a water dissociation system present in the water tank;
- rotating a disk-pack turbine in a disk-pack module of the water dissociation system;
- spinning the water to create a vortex where the water that enters the vortex is located inside the water tank;
- discharging the water from the vortex module into an expansion chamber formed in the disk-pack turbine of the disk-pack module;
- channeling the water between spaces that exist between disks of the disk-pack turbine to travel from the expansion chamber to and along at least one discharge channel surrounding the disk-pack turbine;
- discharging the water and any produced gas through at least one discharge port;
- and
- collecting with a hood any produced gas that is out gassed from the water as the water is discharged from the water treatment system.
