Re: Giant Aluminium batteries are for real (Score: 1)

(User Info | Send a Message) | | Thanks for this summary ElectroDynaCat. This does indeed sound like what they have come up with. Note the section on aluminum manufacture in the background section. They say this technology will reduce energy consumption in aluminum production as well. To me that means they must have some process similar to what you have outlined. Pretty exciting if it pans out. |

ELECTROCATALYSER SOLUTION
The present invention relates to an electrocatalyser solution for use
in physical and/or organic electrochemistry, whose applications
producing and/or consuming electric energy include e.g. new fusion
energy and/or the generation and/or storage and/or use and/or liquid
crystal use of galvanic electric current.
Prior-art electrochemical solutions and their solution technique are
represented e.g. by electrolytes and patent classes B 01J 031/00 and
C 25B 001/02 - 001/04 etc.
Prior-art electrolytes and solution technique are represented e.g. by
potash water electrolyte which is in ground state and is a 1:1
electrolyte, which has dissociated into ionic state, a drawback of
which is said ground state, by reason of which the activation of
solution reactions requires a high electric voltage, which is due to
high polarisation overvoltages, a consequence of which is that the
solution has a low conductance and the reactions are slow.
As compared with the prior-art solution and the solution technique
involved, the object of the invention is to achieve a solution which
eliminates the drawbacks described above and is based on improved
solution technique.
A special advantage achieved by the invention and the solution
technique of the invention is that the solution reactions take place
with a di/de polarisation undervoltage, which catalyses the reaction
of water ("electrolysis") and its inverse reaction as well as other
reactions in which the solution is used, resulting in a higher
reaction speed and a better conductance.
In order to achieve the effect described above, the invention is
mainly characterized by the facts presented in claim 1.
In the following, the invention is described in detail.
The electrocatalyser solution of the invention represents a new and
original solution and solution technique in electrochemistry. It is
characterized by the working substances and solution technique
presented in the following example. In the example, in which the
structural hydrogen in the solution compounds is protonium hydrogen,
deuterium and tritium hydrogen is used when more slowness is desired
and/or for hydrogenation, especially for fusion reaction applications.
Example 1. An electrocatalyser solution, which has been prepared as
follows and 25% ammonia-water solution has been used, the amount of
which is 68 g, which is mixed with water and 208 g of aluminium
hydroxides and the required quantity of water is used to obtain a
total volume of 1 dm3, the substances used form an ammonia hydroxide -
aluminium trihydroxide - hydrate water solution, the solution is
balanced and the above-mentioned molecule group/groups have catalyser
properties when exposed to an electric voltage, the properties also
extend to the electrodes used, so these function at a di/de
polarisation undervoltage, which is a result of the solution
technique, the molecule group is bidirectional, in the direction of
the electric field.
In this application, part of the solution technique is the fact that
the solution is not in ground state and that the relationship between
solution substances in moles is as follows, NH3 1: 2.67Al (OH)3 ,
which is the basis for the unique catalytic effect of the substances
occurring in water solution, the relationship between the substances
can also be different, but still the so lution must not be in ground
state. Part of the solution technique is also the fact that water and
water reactions are used as means for energy transfer, as yield
and/or working substances, the solution reactions consume and/or
produce water, depending on the practical application and on whether
a water, oxide, hydroxide or hydrogen reaction is used, catalysed
reactions are in all applications H+ and/orOW reactions.
The catalysers which produce catalysis reactions when exposed to a
voltage are presented below in an outspread form, for the sake of
clarity and multi-function orientation, there are no requirements as
to the direction of the electric field, the solution can function in
all directions.
EMI3.1
+ A1(OH)3 + 3 H20
or .H20 + NH3 + H + OW
+ Al (OH)3 + 3 H20 +
.H20 or
- eo ve Al (OH)3 +
3 H20 +
catalysers are not subject to wear or change, the balance is
always the same before and after reactions, the solution exposed to
voltage can be divided into anions and/or cations, all possible forms
of molecules can participate in the reactions and be temporarily
changed, being then restored, different forms are ammonia, ammonia
hydroxide, aluminium hydroxide, hydrates, aluminates, aluminium ion,
hydroxide ion and water ammonia dimer.
The below water reaction and its inverse version are special
reactions of the invention and the catalytic properties of the
solution substances is tested using the best and most reliable
method, hydrogen electrode and electrolysis reaction of water, 2 H20
+ 2 e--, 2 OH- + H2 the known value of the reaction is -08277 V with
a potash water electrolyte the value is over -0.828 V in practical
applications -0.95 ... -1.20 V.
Below is an application of a functional test of example 1,solution,
Pt(plat) I H2(1 atm.) I example 1,solution I Pt(plat) in this test a
sufficiently high voltage guaranteed to ensure a good result has been
used, which is -0.726 V the theoretic limit value for the reaction
and catalysis is -0626 V. catalysed results concerned are all results
that are below -0.8277 V.
When the invention is compared with the prior-art potash water
electrolyte, it can be state that the invention eliminates all the
known drawbacks. As for the things that are outside the sphere of the
invention, such as electrodes, it can be stated that there are no
known electrodes that are not applicable for use with a solution as
provided by the invention, only the purpose of use may form an
obstacle, examples of electrodes that work particularly well are
aluminium and copper electrodes, it is also possible to use
oxide/hydroxide/liquid crystal reactant water solutions together with
the solution.
Investigations have not revealed any bar of novelty or inventive
level, and the solution can be industrially exploited and has special
properties for many purposes.
It is obvious to a person skilled in the art that the solution
substances and solution technique are an invention which is not
restricted to the example and its functionality test, but it can be
widely used and applied for various purposes within the scope of the
claims. |
