Excerpt from speech given on GREEN LEADERS SUMMIT 2013 – Sydney, Australia
The world is now at a turning point in planning its energy provision for the future, as the industrial growth, and climate change effects of global warming have to be addressed.
There are schools of thought that picture a Hydrogen Economy based on combustion, while others see domination of fuel cells as the principal energy vector for the future.
Hydrogen powered cars are rolling out of production lines as we speak, where the combustion emission side effect is pure water.
Fuel cell technology which uses hydrogen in a clean electrochemical process to generate electricity is currently well advanced for stationary and mobile applications.
Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe and there is compelling logic that leads us all to believe that surely this gas can provide an almost limitless source of energy for the world.
However, chemical activity and the physical properties of hydrogen make its isolation a highly energy-intensive process.
Nearly all the hydrogen currently manufactured in the world is through the steam reforming of hydrocarbons, process that has low energy conversion efficiency and results to rapidly growing number of 8.8 billion tons of carbon being emitted annually – this is data from 2009 by Royal Society of Chemistry.
Necessity to heat the enormous catalyst inside the steam reformer to the high working temperature average of 8000C, spends large amounts of energy in order to operate.
8.8 billion Tonnes of carbon emitted in the atmosphere are devastating result of the anticipated “clean energy” usage.
We cannot seriously think of kick-starting Hydrogen Economy without addressing this first obstacle.
Excerpt from speech given on GREEN LEADERS SUMMIT 2013 – Sydney, Australia
In an ideal world, hydrogen would be made available through the splitting of water into its constituent elements, drawing on renewable energy sources.
Such a process would be both sustainable and carbon neutral.
Hydrogen bond with oxygen in water makes an extremely strong connection. The splitting of water via conventional means is a highly energy intensive process – we basically need much more energy to produce hydrogen, than we can claim back through combustion or electrochemistry.
The enormous energy waste comes with the price tag of the final product, which cannot compete with traditional fuel, and this is the major problem with existing technologies.
One of the main problems associated with hydrogen production through the energy conversion process from a chemical point of view, is kinetic limitation.
The conclusion would be that we have to change physical properties of the medium, in order to efficiently generate hydrogen from it.
Hope Cell Technology represents a pioneering path to the new technology of extracting hydrogen from water, or hydrocarbon medium via an energy efficient method.
The name Hope Cell stands for hydrogen oxygen plasma energy cell.
The Hope Cell design is based on several scientific research principles which have shown results of hydrogen generation in excess of more than 300% better efficiency compared to electrolysis.
Those experiments have had several major limitations. Impressive results were only achieved in the spontaneous bursts for short periods of time, they were not repeatable, and were without any usable viability.
How is Hope Cell addressing these issues?
Hope Cell applies plasma in order to provide the optimal temperature range and eliminate kinetic limitations. In addition, plasma changes the state of matter where physical properties align in the favour of hydrogen isolation. Unique plasma management methods overcome problems of unpredictable intermittent operation.
Hydrogen generation results in affordable, user friendly, viable conversion of energy.
Hope Cell has been designed to trigger and enhance hydrogen exothermal reaction, which happens under certain conditions, where surface spot temperatures on a nano dimensional
