Hydrogen Extraction from water
« on: December 05, 2008, 04:40:48 PM »
hey all can you please help me with this


i tried extracting hydrogen from water, by adding salt in to the water and than providing direct current with a 12 volt battery, the bubbles started coming up almost immediately from the negative wire, but the water soon changed its color to orange and than very quickly to dark green.


one i want to ask if im doing anything wrong here and if there is a commercial benefit to the hydrogen extracted like if we use it to run a generator the amount of electricity it will provide as oppose to the energy it takes to produce hydrogen with this method..


Please tell me if there is any better way to produce Hydrogen from water.


Thanks Acidman
