Device for producing gaseous reactants particularly hydrogen and oxygen for fuel cells
Abstract
Abstract D R A W I N G METHOD OF PRODUCING GASEOUS REACTANTS, PARTICULARLY HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN, FOR FUEL CELLS BY REACTION OR CATALYTIC DISSOCIATION OF LIQUID OR LIQUID-DISSOLVED SUBSTANCES, WITH SOLID SUBSTANCES OR SOLID CATALYSTS WHEREBY THE DEVELOPMENT OF GAS IS AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTED TO THE GAS CONSUME. THE LIQUID SUBSTANCE OR THE LIQUID-DISSOLVED SUBSTANCE IS PLACED INTO A STORAGE CONTAINER WHICH IS CONNECTED WITH A SEALED GAS CHAMBER AND ALSO CONNECTED, VIA AT LEAST ONE LINE, TO A REACTION TUBE CONTAINING THE SOLID SUBSTANCE OR THE SOLID CATALYST. THUS WHEN THE PRESSURE DROPS IN THE REACTION TUBE, THE LIQUID LOCATED IN THE STORAGE CONTAINER IS FURTHER COMPRESSED INTO THE REACTION TUBE AND WHEN THE PRESSURE IN THE REACTION TUBE RISES, THE LIQUID IS EITHER COMPLETELY OR PARTIALLY RETURNED TO THE STORAGE CONTAINER.
