Original Meyer Water Fuel Cell c.1990

Summary

The video highlights an innovative water-fracturing method developed by M, which produces hydrogen on demand without the usual high energy consumption or excessive heat. Unlike conventional electrolysis, M's device uses low current (less than half an amp) and pulses electricity up to 20,000 cycles per second. This process not only fractures water to release hydrogen but also generates more energy than it consumes, presenting a groundbreaking shift in energy efficiency for hydrogen production.

Q & A

What is the conventional method of electrolysis, and how does M's device differ from it?

The conventional method of electrolysis involves using large amounts of electric current and produces significant waste heat. M's device, in contrast, uses minimal current and generates very little waste heat, making it more efficient.

How long has M been refining his method to fracture water and produce hydrogen?

M has been refining his method for 20 years to fracture water and produce hydrogen on demand.

What is unique about M's latest apparatus, and why was it not shown to the camera?

M's latest apparatus is considered revolutionary, and he was unwilling to let cameras point at it, possibly to protect intellectual property or because it's still in development.

What components make up the simple device M used to demonstrate his concept?

The device consists of alloy rods acting as electrodes housed in a perspective container filled with water, and normal mains voltage is fed into the system via a transformer.

How much electric current does M's device consume, and how does that compare to conventional electrolysis?

M's device consumes less than half an amp of electric current, which is significantly less than the large amounts of current consumed in conventional electrolysis.

What happens when M's device is turned on?

When M's device is turned on, hydrogen is produced rapidly, pouring off with the flick of a switch.

What role do M's electronics play in the process?

M's electronics pulse electricity rapidly across the rods, up to 20,000 cycles per second. This method is key to transforming the process and making it more energy-efficient.

What is the main difference between energy consumption in conventional electrolysis and M's apparatus?

In conventional electrolysis, three times as much energy is consumed as is produced in the form of hydrogen fuel, whereas M's apparatus appears to produce several hundred percent more energy than it consumes.

What does M's apparatus prove about energy production?

M's apparatus proves that it is possible to produce more energy in the form of hydrogen than the energy consumed, challenging traditional understandings of energy efficiency.

What is the significance of M's invention in terms of hydrogen production?

M's invention is significant because it offers a more efficient way to produce hydrogen on demand, with much less energy input and waste heat, which could have a major impact on energy production and fuel generation.
