[Stoves] Hydrogen from charcoal

[Frans Peeters]

Dear Crispin,

Dont forget: at 900 °C H2O +C------> H2 +CO
Your plot is missing themperature !
Mind hydrogen is dens 2 versus  28 for CO becouse every mol gas  =22,4 L .
So H2 escapes 14 times faster by Archimedes ....
If you measure in a horizontal stoofpipe! Up and down is different !!!
CO is not only the bad stove but the production from water in watergas .
The smoke must be returned into a glowing fuelmass . Fluidized sand  bed or
Karnetsoff system .
Hydrogen is free of no cost here ,so nobody has interesse to measure it .


Regards
Frans

Dear Friends

 

This is a plot of CO(EF) and H2(EF) for a charcoal stove.

 



What do you suppose is the source this hydrogen?

 

Note for interest that the ratio between H2 and CO is surprisingly constant
throughout the test. It is not the ratio of the H and C in the fuel (at
all).

Crispin
