ABSTRACT:
A feasible and economic method of producing hydrogen and oxygen as potential fuels, from water. The process employs as the energy source, sunlight, which is separated into its infrared portion and its ultraviolet light portion. These are concentrated, and in a first stage the infrared is used to heat the water, under pressure to a superheated steam which is contacted with a steam decomposition catalyst in a chamber which is subjected to concentrated ultraviolet light. The result is separation of the water by a combination of thermal energy and photolytic effect into its component elements, hydrogen and oxygen, which can be collected individually and used as fuel sources.
