HYDROGEN GENERATION

AN OVERVIEW

PURPOSE OF HYDROGEN
IN THERMAL POWER STATION

COOLING OF GENERATOR ROTOR

IT IS MOST SUITABLE COOLANT HIGHER SPECIFIC HEAT LOWER MASS BETTER CIRCULATION GOOD THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY

BUT ITS MIXTURE WITH AIR IS

EXPLOSIVE

HYDROGEN GENERATION PROCESS

ELECTROLYSIS OF WATER ELECTROCHEMICAL CELL NATURAL HYDROGEN EXTRACTION

ELECTROLYSIS

H2O + Q

H2 + O2

 NORMAL WATER IS NOT VERY SUITABLE FOR ELECTRICAL CONDUCTION KOH(30%) IS ADDED TO DM WATER

K2Cr2O7(1%) IS ADDED AS CATALYST
