HYDROGEN PRODUCTION FROM WATER USING A PLASMA SOURCE

HYDROGEN PRODUCTION FROM WATER USING A PLASMA SOURCE

An apparatus and method for hydrogen production by dissociating water molecules in response to plasma output from a plasma source. This plasma source can have an RF antenna, capable of operating in capacitive, inductive, or helicon mode when operating conditions match those required to excite these...

Zusammenfassung:An apparatus and method for hydrogen production by dissociating water molecules in response to plasma output from a plasma source. This plasma source can have an RF antenna, capable of operating in capacitive, inductive, or helicon mode when operating conditions match those required to excite these modes. Hydrogen is produced by injecting water vapor into the plasma source. According to the principles of the present teachings, the apparatus and method are, thus, capable of dissociating water molecules into their constituent species.
