How to Make an Electrolyzer 3000°C + Adjustable Homemade Hydrogen Torch. Free Energy – Save Money!

In this project, I will show you how to build a homemade generator for splitting water molecules to produce hydrogen through the process of electrolysis. Hydrogen is a powerful energy source that can be used in various fields, from alternative energy solutions to fuel for vehicles. With simple materials and readily available tools, you can create a device that separates water into hydrogen and oxygen using electrical energy. In this guide, you'll learn how to build an efficient and safe system for this process and conduct the experiment yourself.

The first step is to create the burner. For this, I use a copper capillary tube and a slightly larger copper tube, which we solder together, creating a connector. This connector will later be inserted into a high-pressure plastic valve, which will regulate the flow of hydrogen gas.

Note that the end of the capillary tube needs to be narrowed, specifically the inner hole. To do this, we first insert an insulin syringe needle into the capillary tube, and then begin narrowing the hole. To better dissipate heat and prevent overheating, we make several coils of the capillary tube that will function as a cooling radiator.

To make the anode and cathode electrodes, we use stainless steel rings. First, we need to enlarge the holes in the rings to fit the diameter of the stud. Then, we start assembling the electrodes: we place one ring, followed by a nut, and then another ring. In this way, we create two full electrodes — one for the anode and the other for the cathode.

To do this, we measure the required dimensions in the lid of the container so that the contacts do not touch each other, but there is a minimal gap between them. To make this step easier to understand, be sure to watch the YouTube video, which includes more detailed information.

You will also find a detailed guide in the video on how to make the water barrier, which is an essential part of the hydrogen generator.

Before starting the testing, we need to pour water into the water barrier. Then, we mix the water with the magic powder =)) What do you think this powder is? I will answer this in the comments on Instructables later. I’m curious to know your guesses! The resulting mixture is poured into the hydrogen generator. We connect all the tubes and proceed with the first test.

Now that we’ve assembled our homemade hydrogen generator, let’s summarize and explain how it works. This generator uses the process of water electrolysis: when an electric current passes through water, H2O molecules are split into hydrogen and oxygen. Water, in this case, serves as the electrolyte, and the splitting process occurs due to the current.

We connected the generator to an adjustable power supply with settings of 6V and 6A. This allows us to control the amount of hydrogen and oxygen produced and ensures the stability of the device. With these settings, the generator can produce hydrogen in significant quantities, depending on the operation time.

The temperature of the liquid can reach 45-55 degrees Celsius due to the heat generated as the current passes through the water. However, the more interesting aspect is the flame temperature that occurs when the hydrogen ignites. The temperature of the hydrogen flame can reach up to 2000 degrees Celsius, making it extremely powerful and hot. Therefore, when working with such a generator, caution must be exercised, and proper protective equipment should be used.

As the current and voltage increase, the flame temperature may rise even further, which requires additional safety measures. As a result, we obtain hydrogen that can be used in various experiments or even to power small devices. This is a great opportunity to practically understand how water electrolysis works and what is needed to produce hydrogen.

Thank you for your attention! Remember to be cautious when working with electricity and gases. Good luck with your experiments!
