Abstract
Disclosed is an electrolysis system for producing one or more gases for an internal combustion engine for enhancing combustion. The system uses stacked electrode plates including neutral plates for generating an oxygen and hydrogen gas mixture. The stacked plates substantially fill an electrolysis cell containing an electrolytic solution which is recycled and cooled.
Claims20
A system for producing one or more gases for an internal combustion engine for enhancing combustion comprising:
- an electrolysis cell generating one or more combustion enhancing gases from an electrolytic solution, the electrolysis cell including a housing and at least three electrodes within the housing, the housing having inclined sloping walls for directing the combustion gases out through an opening in the housing;
- and
- a trap fluidly connected to the electrolysis cell for collecting and holding the solution and the trap emitting one or more combustion enhancing gases whereby the trap can be fluidly connected to the intake of the internal combustion engine and the trap further fluidly connected to the electrolysis cell for delivering the solution to the cell.
A system for producing one or more gases for an internal combustion engine for enhancing combustion comprising:
- an electrolysis cell generating one or more combustion enhancing gases from an electrolytic solution, the electrolysis cell including a housing having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion having a recess formed within and the second portion comprising a plate fitted over the first portion forming a substantially watertight chamber within;
- a plurality of electrodes fitted within the chamber wherein at least one of the electrodes is neutral;
- a trap fluidly connected to the electrolysis cell for collecting and holding the solution and the trap emitting one or more combustion enhancing gases whereby the trap can be fluidly connected to the intake of the internal combustion engine and the trap further fluidly connected to the electrolysis cell for delivering the solution to the cell;
- a pump fluidly connected to the system for recirculating the electrolytic solution within the system;
- and
- a cooling assembly fluidly connected to the trap and the cell whereby the electrolytic solution is cooled before being delivered to the cell.
