GLOSSARY
Hydrogen - This is the first element in the periodic table. Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom form water. If these same water molecules are rearranged, they can form a combustible gas.
Electrolysis - This is a process that uses electricity to rearrange water's molecular structure. Another name for this device is a hydrogen cell. Basically, water and electricity goes in, and flammable gas comes out.
HHO/oxyhydrogen - This is the result of electrolysis. Since hydrogen is not comfortable being by itself, it attaches to oxygen as soon as it leaves the cell. In the automotive world, when people say they are burning hydrogen in their car, they are really consuming HHO, or oxyhydrogen, another name for HHO.
Catalyst/electrolyte - In order to lower water's electrical resistance, a catalyst or electrolyte is used. They come in the form of an acid, base, or salt. Potassium hydroxide (KOH), a base, is a common catalyst used by enthusiasts.
SAFETY RULES
1. Everything in your hydrogen injection system should be made from stainless steel, plastics, or alloys resistant to chemical erosion. It is important not to run copper wires because they will short out. Glass should absolutely be avoided.
2. A water reservoir, known as a bubbler, should be installed between the hydrogen-producing cell and engine along with a one-way valve in order to eliminate the possibility of an explosion going all the way to the cell.
3. Your cell should have a pressure-release valve built in.
4. Your electrolysis system needs a fuse, relay, power switch, and 12-volt ignition source (so the cell is deactivated once the engine is shut off).
5. The cell has the potential to produce lethal gases depending on the electrolyte, so beware.
6. Never, under any circumstances, store HHO or oxyhydrogen gas, since it is much less stable than pure hydrogen and can explode.
 This piggyback module is included...  This piggyback module is included in a new hydrogen-on-demand system made by Hydrogen Hybrid Group. It comes complete with everything your '08 Ford Super Duty with the 6.4L Power Stroke needs to turn water into hydrogen. |  This simple device measures...  This simple device measures the flow of the HHO gas as it comes out of the cell. The unit used to measure flow and efficiency is milliliters per minute per watt or (MMW). At www.watervan.co.uk there is an MMW calculator. You fill in your volts, amps, milliliters produced, and time measured in seconds, and it will tell you your MMW. |  Every Saturday at Woodley...  Every Saturday at Woodley Park in Van Nuys, California, hydrogen enthusiasts meet to discuss technology. Ozzie Freedom helped start this movement back in 2006 with his Water4Gas company. A quick search on YouTube will net hours and hours of videos regarding hydrogen-on-demand technology. In Florida, there is a convention called the HHO Games, check it out at www.HHOgames.com. |
