Experimental Investigation of the Hydroxy Gas Generation as a Clean Energy Source for Spark Ignition Engine Operation Using Different Electrolytes
The main objective of this research is to generate the hydrogen gas as a fuel and part of hydroxy gas (HHO) from the drinking water (H2O) using electrolyzing method with a different electrolytes such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), and Vinegar in HHO generator for best results...

| Summary: | The main objective of this research is to generate the hydrogen gas as a fuel and part of hydroxy gas
(HHO) from the drinking water (H2O) using electrolyzing method with a different electrolytes such as
sodium hydroxide (NaOH), sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), and Vinegar in HHO generator for best results,
the practical examinations were done by a generator that designed and built for this purpose using plate
electrodes, with a rechargeable 12-volt battery and the produced gas was measured at each case and
used as a fuel for operating a small single-cylinder spark-ignition engine (Honda G 200) with taking
into account the safety precautions. The results show that increasing the ratio of (NaOH) grams/liter
of H2O increases the gas production, while the other two electrolytes (Na2CO3 and vinegar) are not
effecting too much, and using the mixing procedure (%) of the electrolytes (NaOH with Na2CO3) and
(Na2CO3 with Vinegar), it is observed that the HHO generation noticeable increases with increasing
the mixing ratio of the first mixture and not too much with the second. |
