Systems And Methods For Generating Hydrogen Gas
US Patent:
8381766, Feb 26, 2013
Filed:
Mar 6, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/043386
Inventors:
Keith A. Fennimore - Columbus NJ, US
John Spallone - Virginia Beach VA, US
John Spallone - Virginia Beach VA, US
Assignee:
Protonex Technology Corporation - Southborough MA
International Classification:
F04B 49/00, F04B 49/03
US Classification:
13756511, 48 61, 13756501, 13756516
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for hydrogen generation utilizing two or more liquid fuel components, using a fuel delivery system comprising a single reversible or bi-directional pump co-operable with flow control means comprising passive or active valves to deliver two or more fuel components to a mixing zone, reaction zone, or reaction chamber of a hydrogen generation system. The pump is operable in a forward direction to deliver one fuel component, and in a reverse direction to deliver a second fuel component. Control of the pump speed, direction and duty cycle of the pump in continuous or pulsed modes provides for delivery of first and second fuel components in desired proportions, to control hydrogen generation. The system also allows for dilution, mixing and flush cycles to be provided using a single pump, reducing the number of active elements required for fuel delivery and flow control in systems using two or more liquid fuel components.

Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for hydrogen generation utilizing two or more liquid fuel components, using a fuel delivery system comprising a single pump. Advantageously, a single reversible cycle pump is used to deliver two or more fuel components of a fuel mixture in desired proportions to a mixing zone, reaction zone, or reaction chamber of a hydrogen generation system, while reducing the number of active elements required for fuel delivery and flow control of multiple fuel components. Alternatively, a unidirectional single or duel feed pump co-operable with flow control means comprising a valve provides for delivering first and second fuel components in desired proportions. Control of the pump speed, and duty cycle of the pump in continuous or pulsed modes, provides for delivery of first and second fuel components in desired proportions, to control hydrogen generation, and to provide for dilution, mixing, and flush cycles, using a single pump. A control system provides for control of the pump and/or valve, responsive to external or system conditions.
