ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for exothermically obtaining hydrogen or hydrogen peroxide from water vapor in a reaction chamber. The separation of the hydrogen and oxygen may be accelerated through the use of a combination host and sensitizer material which is present near spaces or voids within the reaction chamber. The water vapor has certain particular absorption bands in its absorption versus frequency characteristic. Each of the sensitizers which are located adjacent the voids in the reactant, in one embodiment forming part of the walls of small cylindrical tubes, has an energy output in the excited state which is precisely in one of the energy absorption bands in the water vapor characteristic. The host material absorbs heat energy and excites the sensitizer material. In addition to the formation of free hydrogen, some hydrogen peroxide is also formed. Other feedstocks may have energy selectively applied to them.
Alternative appparatus for applying high intensity radiation to feedstock include (1) a reaction chamber in which conductive wires are coated with two different host and sensitizer materials; and (2) a reaction chamber irradiated by beams from two lasers of different frequencies. In both of these apparatus the radiation of two different frequencies beat together as the radiation impinges on the media discontinuities provided by the feedstock and creates new sum and difference frequencies, with the higher sum frequencies providing energetic radiation effects.
