Good day to all, rather new to this group and just been reading so far. Wonderful exchanges you folks have, I've really been enjoying the updates from the world over. Regarding this hydrogen-oxygen, link: I agree with Tek, I would think one would want their Hydrogen and Oxygen in seperate

anybody out there know how to take the o out of naoh ? i understand that it can be done by heating, but have no details. this would result in nah, which is what 'powerballs' are made of (same as superman's ?) supposedly, when you dunk said potent powerballs in water you get h,

Keith, I read this but it seems extremely dangerous.. I hope nobody tries to make a torch out of it.. if they do they will likely blow themselves into little pieces.. Without alot of velocity of the mixed gas it will flashback into the tubing or pipes.. --Bryan - Original Message -

No way by heating. Sodium hydride (NaH) is made electrolitically. A sodium bar is sunk in saltwater and made into a cathode and put to power. Remember the 'cold fusion? Well, this is not very far away. There are some other ways but none of them is cheap - sodium lye for one is cheap, but when

Thanks for the pointer to Powerballs Dick, I hadn't heard of them before. Did you read the Q A on their site ? www.powerball.netone of the responses was .) If powerballs are made using natural gas, the following reaction will take place: CH4 + NaOH -- CO + NaH + 2 H2 Note that 16 pounds of

Only one slight flaw I can see in the use of hydrogen in fuel cells - the situation being that hydrogen is a secondary fuel. Problem is, it takes energy to produce the hydrogen in the first place - by electrolysis, about 1.3 times the energy produced. Then it takes another 0.3 times to compress
