Hydrogen Hydrogen History Yull Brown: Henry Cavendish (1766) was the first to recognize that hydrogen gas was a discrete substance, and that it produces water when burned, the property for which it was later named. Henry Cavendish was a British natural philosopher, scientist, and an important experimental and theoretical chemist and physicist. Cavendish is noted for his discovery of hydrogen or what he called “inflammable air”. He described the density of inflammable air, which formed water on combustion, in a 1766 paper “On Factitious Airs”. Antoine Lavoisier later reproduced Cavendish’s experiment and gave the element its name. In Greek, hydrogen means “water-former”. Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier was a French nobleman and chemist central to the 18th-century chemical revolution and had a large influence on both the history of chemistry and the history of biology. He is widely considered in popular literature as the “father of modern chemistry”....
The low-carbon option for heavy industry The Brown’s Gas generator is not an ordinary electrolyzer or fuel cell that merely produces hydrogen. This is evidenced by the Brown’s Gas characteristics of having an Interactive Heat Effect and Implosive characteristics (refer to Brown’s Gas FAQ ). In contrast hydrogen has a fixed heat value and explodes. COMPARING ALTERNATIVES Imagined combustion support alternatives: Biodiesel/biomass: Biodiesel or woodchips can be combusted directly as a low cost alternative to fossil fuels. Electric current: Electricity can be used to run electric arc furnaces for steel manufacture. Grey and blue hydrogen: Is traditionally produced through steam reforming fossil fuels which creates more emissions. Radioactive nuclear energy: Give off heat that can be carried as steam. Carbon capture and storage (CCS): Like the storage of radioactive nuclear wastes, CCS avoids decarbonizing completely, it is a corruption o...
HHO FAQ By adding HHO gas to the air mixture for combustion with any solid, liquid or gas fuel substance like wood, petroleum, fuel oil, diesel or natural gas the burning process is faster and more complete. This results in all the fuel being burnt so that none of it escapes as emissions to cause pollution.
