This establishes a lean condition, which will increase combustion efficiency. A perfectly stoichiometric mixture cannot achieve complete combustion because there are so many molecules, and atoms in the mix, and for each and every structure to undergo 100% combustion does not make practical sense. Therefore to ensure that an increasing amount of carbon fuel combusts completely, the additional of substantially excess oxygen is required.In addition to hydrogen and oxygen injection, blowers can be added, like a super charger, to force more oxygen into the reaction chamber. The hydrogen will react with the oxygen forming water; the water will then absorb heat and expand into vapor. With water vapor being in the reaction chamber, heat energy will be transferred to the boiler by the direct contact of superheated water molecules, in addition to the thermal energy contained in the atmosphere. Water vapor is more dense than atmosphere, especially considering is superheated state, therefore the water vapor will transfer energy more effectively to the boiler, compared to the atmosphere alone.It is also theorized that hydrogen allotropes, associated with Brown’s Gas, will act catalytically with the carbon fuel, successfully reducing the activation energy associated with carbon fuel combustion propagation. This will result in an overall increase in the combustion efficiency of the carbon fuel, releasing more energy, and allowing byproduct pollution to form more stable molecular structures. Typically carbon monoxide would exist in exhaust gas, and it has been observed that with the addition of Brown’s Gas, the vast majority of the carbon monoxide will combust completely into carbon dioxide :) Power facilities are external combustion systems, and internal combustion system benefit from an additional effect of Brown’s Gas injection. In internal combustion engines, the hydrogen and oxygen will combust into water, then absorb heat energy, and expand into water vapor. The expansion of water into vapor will capture typically wasted heat energy, and convert it into an expansion force. This results in an increase in the overall engine efficiency ;)

With a clear distinction between two methods of Hydrogen Fuel production (common ducted and independently ducted), waterfuelconverters.com clarifies viable applications while highlighting the pitfalls that will retard widespread implementation for some time.

Basically a highly viable fuel takes less energy to produce than can be released from consumption. All carbon based fuels have such viability, whereas Hydrogen Fuels are exactly the opposite taking more energy to produce than can be recovered.

Considering this massive pitfall substitution is not viable in current markets.

Considering energy requirements fuel enhancement using Brown’s Gas is viable because of a chemical synergy that catalytically reduces the activation energy of carbon fuel combustion.
