Method for dissociating water molecules to obtain hydrogen and oxygen gas and apparatus for dissociating water molecules

A method of dissociating water molecules to obtain hydrogen and oxygen gas, comprising the following process steps:

• (a) water is poured between the electrodes to form an electrical capacitor in which the water represents the dielectric, (b) a nonlinearly increasing electric field is generated between the electrodes by including the capacitor in a series-wired tuned LC circuit until some of the water molecules dissociate into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas, and the gas ions are stabilized by photon irradiation, (c) the gaseous elements are vented out of the capacitor space, whereupon steps (b) and (c) are repeated, whereby in step (b) the parameters of the non-uniformly increasing electric field are adjusted according to the actual electrical capacitance of the capacitor as determined by the amount of water present between the electrodes, while at the same time the frequency of charging of the electrical charge in the capacitor is varied from 50 kHz to 1 MHz.
