METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING GAS

摘要

This invention relates to an electrolysis method and electrolysis apparatus (10) for producing oxygenated and hydrogenated fluid. The apparatus (10) comprises first and second outer end members (12 and 14), both being of polyethylene and at least two spaced apart permeable electrodes (16 and 18). The permeable electrode (16 and 18) are each of a foraminous or perforated material, such as nickel foam sheet material. The two permeable electrodes (16 and 18) are arranged generally parallel to one another and are relatively closely spaced from one another. An inlet chamber (20) is therefore defined between the first and second permeable electrodes (16 and 18). A first oxygenated fluid collection chamber (22) is disposed between the first permeable electrode (16) and the first end member (12) and a second hydrogenated fluid collection chamber (24) is disposed between the second permeable electrode (18) and the second end member (14).
