Browns gas (Hydroxy) is a stable "mixture" of di-atomic and mon-atomic hydrogen and oxygen with a higher energy state than diatomic hydrogen named after the Bulgarian heavy water chemist Yull Brown. Brown received patents for his electrolyzer in 1977 and 1978. The design is commonly referred to as common-ducted. The gas was first discovered by William A. Rhodes in 1966.

History

The electrolysis of water produces a burnable gas. Invented by William A. Rhodes (living), with additional pioneer work done by Yull Brown (deceased), followed by George Wiseman who's group is one entity presently manufacturing and marketing the technology.

"Of all elements, hydrogen and oxygen should hold no secrets. Yet, in this example they do and have been troublesome." -- William A. Rhodes (March 12, 2000)

Dr. William Rhodes technology invented in the 1960s is gaining momentum both in research results, device improvements, and manufacturing. Dr. Rhodes claims are the earliest documented. Yull Brown is the most well-recognized researcher and proponent. George Wiseman is the most well-recognized proponent today. Todd Knudtson may have some surprises.

There are several schools of thought on the best method of electrolysis, ranging from series to parallel plates; and there are competing claims to technology rights. Claims of gas properties are sometimes incredulous on the face, sometimes exaggerated, but are usually backed by documented evidence.

One counter-claim is that there is no one capability of this gas that cannot be surpassed by some other technique; and that the main value is probably just that of a "Swiss Army Knife" versatility. However, such properties as not heating water, while immediately penetrating iron submerged in water, is a property that is probably not matched anywhere. The welding of dissimilar metals may include some combinations not achievable elsewhere. Also,The Water/Fuel Converters Project - An electrolysis initiative that sets forth to clearly established the difference between Brown's Gas, Rhodes Gas, Oxy-Hydrogen, HHO, and the production methods thereof. the immediate effect on Tungsten is another efficiency that is probably not matched by anything else. The non-toxicity is a factor that must not be ignored either. The gas generation does not consume a great deal of electrical energy.

Sales have not skyrocketed as predicted, largely due to the lack of U.L. / CSA listing, which is because there is no precedent standard. Also, device strengths and weaknesses need to be understood so as to hone in on the strengths. The technology basically has no intellectual protections at this point, though most try to give fiduciary credit where credit is due (except to Rhodes?).

Browns Gas is made in a Common Ducted Electrolyzer. Released with droplets of fine water mist, Brown's Gas assumes a stable "mixture" of Di-atomic and Mon-atomic Hydrogen and Oxygen. Stoichiometrically akin to the Oxidized nature of Brown's Gas, safe handling measures are crucial; static discharge commonly follows the friction of moving particles--> Where early combustion may prove impressively undesirable; however owing credit to a notably higher Combustion Energy State than Diatomic Hydrogen alone.[4] Here, the water molecules are not totally separated, it's understood they are 'held under a pressure', causing the (Polar)water molecules to behave so differently.[5] Oxyethylene can achieve a temperature of 6300 degrees Fahrenheit but it takes over 10,500 degrees Fahrenheit to sublimate Tungsten.[6]

Burn temperature depends on the target material rather than the flame itself.[7][8]

As the gas produces 1860 liters of gas per liter of water[9] it derives cumulative heat from the environment.

Browns gas eliminates many of the disadvantages associated with conventional gas welding like dangerous oxy-acetylene bottles, it is inexpensively, doesn't pollute the atmosphere.

Brown's Gas can efficiently neutralize radioactive waste though transmutation right at the reactor[10][11][12] thus removing the need for transportation or storage of nuclear waste. Such application can revolutionize the nuclear industry.[13] Former state assemblyman Dan Haley from New York investigated the lack of response after the US Department of Energy observed such demonstration of transmutation. The DEO invented numerous excuses after which addressed they finally decided they had seen nothing.

The DOE argued 1) "the radioactivity was encapsulated in the sample", but the sample was crushed and the Geiger counter reading was the same. They argued 2) "the radioactivity must be disparaged into the atmosphere" while the department of health preformed in depth investigation of the environment. This much to the frustration of the nuclear physicist preforming the research for it suggested their incompetence. The laboratory was not closed clearly indicating no radioactivity was found in or around the building. In stead (after 3 months) the government payroll advanced to the claim they had seen nothing.

Yull brown converted various cars to run on Browns gas and/or a mixture of gasoline and Browns gas. A simple technology hobbyists still apply today.

"I show results, many people make claims, but don't produce. Drawings and blueprints look nice in books on the shelf but the not in the real world"[14]

  • Fuel enhancement; hydrogen affects the burn rate of fuels and lean combustion capabilities of internal combustion engines.
  • Heating. Sang Nam Kim claims "an energy generating apparatus using the cyclic combustion of Brown gas wherein a heat generating unit is heated to a temperature of 1,000.degree. C".
  • Welding
  • brazing
  • Soldering
  • transmutation {radioactive waste}


Electrolyzer

A number of electrodes, effectively in series, are arranged adjacent each other in a common electrolytic chamber, the chamber being provided with a gas collection space. Only the end electrodes are connected to the power supply. Additionally the need for a transformer for most applications can be eliminated by such an arrangement so that the apparatus can be designed to be directly connected to a main electrical supply or through a bridge rectifier if so desired. By eliminating the need for a transformer, the gas generating equipment as a whole can be made surprisingly compact, to be well suited for small domestic- as well as heavy industrial requirements.
