Provides a very detailed, on demand, water splitting method. It seems to be
based on Stanley Meyers work and describes in great detail cracking
circuitry, steel nickle coated electrodes etc. Use of magnetism, resonance
and hydrogen/oxygen filtering membranes are all incorporated. This is worth
a study. So far it seems to be the most complete treatment, for building a
system, on the subject that I have seen.
I found this in the following paper on politics of energy, a must read. it
refers to tons of other patents quite a few of these are available on the
IBM patent server. BTW full ascii txt /pdf on many patents is available for
free from the PatentMiner accessed from the IBM server. You have to sign up
though.

FUEL SUPPLY APPARATUS FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
Inventor: Stephen Horvath, St. Ives, Australia
ABSTRACT
A fuel supply apparatus generates hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis of
water.
There is provided an electrolytic cell which has a circular anode
surrounded by a
cathode with a porous membrane therebetween. The anode is fluted and the
cathode
is slotted to provide anode and cathode areas of substantially equal surface
area. A pulsed electrical current is provided between the anode and
cathode for
efficient generation of hydrogen and oxygen. The electrolytic cell is
equipped
with a float, which detects the level of electrolyte within the cell, and
water
is added to the cell as needed to replace the water lost through the
electrolysis
process.
The hydrogen and oxygen are collected in chambers which are an integral
part of
the electrolytic cell, and these two gases are supplied to a mixing
chamber where
they are mixed in the ratio of two parts hydrogen to one part oxygen. This
mixture of hydrogen and oxygen flows to another mixing chamber wherein it is
mixed with air from the atmosphere. The system is disclosed as being
installed in
an automobile, and a dual control system, which is actuated by the
automobile
throttle, first meters the hydrogen and oxygen mixture into the chamber
wherein
it is combined with air and then meters the combined mixture into the
automobile
engine. The heat of combustion of a pure hydrogen and oxygen mixture is
greater
than that of a gasoline and air mixture of comparable volume, and air is
therefore mixed with the hydrogen and oxygen to produce a composite
mixture which
has a heat of combustion approximating that of a normal gas-air mixture.
This
composite mixture of air, hydrogen and oxygen then can be supplied
directly to a
conventional internal combustion engine without overheating and without
creation
of a vacuum in the system.
