Abstract
A water to fuel electrolysis system for providing hydrogen and oxygen gases to a steam boiler for the production of heat and steam.
Claims9
A water to fuel production system for providing fuel for steam operated devices and a source of heat comprising:
- a. a fuel production means having at least one container separated by partition means into an even number of smaller compartment means, where said smaller compartment means are interconnected by a channel means along the bottom edges of said partition means,
- b. a plurality of anodes and cathodes mounted in said smaller compartment means, providing alternate rows of anodes and cathodes, whereby said anodes and cathodes are provided with d. c. current to produce hydrogen and oxygen gases,
- c. said container having a combustion chamber for collecting and igniting hydrogen and oxygen gases produced in said smaller compartments, and
- d. outlet means connected to said combustion chamber for removing the steam and heat produced during the ignition of hydrogen and oxygen gases from said combustion chamber, whereby the removed heat and steam are used to run steam operated devices including a steam generator or a steam turbine and as a heat source for a boiler.

A water to fuel production system for providing fuel for steam operated devices and a source of heat comprising:
- a. an electrolysis means including a large container divided into smaller compartments, where at least one partition means separates said compartments and positioned to provide an open space between the bottom of said partition means and said compartment, and a plurality of cathodes and anodes separated by said partition means of said compartments, whereby said cathodes and anodes are connected to a source of electrical current, to produce hydrogen and oxygen gases;
- b. a combustion chamber connected to said electrolysis means to receive and ignite the commingled hydrogen and oxygen gases;
- and
- c. an outlet means for removing heat and steam.
