test 1 Real hydrogen production just 20g water and aluminum AHTC

Ok now I understand what you are trying to say. This is not new to me but thanks for explaining it. I think others will also understand it. AHTC is now working with the North Carolina State University to research AHTC's patented technology of producing ultra-high pressures from an aluminum / water reaction in a portable cartridge that is initiated with low voltage.

looks like thermite

@cids7777

ahh, but it is aluminum and water. The exothermic reaction is almost 16 times greater then thermite and the production of hydrogen is achieved unlike the non gas producing reaction of thermite.

thanks for the comment.

Hi there,

What is aluminum "AHTC"?

[einstyndotcom]

@mksboysal hi,

AHTC stands for Advanced Hydrogen Technologies Corporation. We use low voltage ignition cartridges to produce very high pressure hydrogen from aluminum and water.

that is a huge amount of hydrogen from 20 grams of water!

@TheAeci 20g H2O... thats 1,1 mole --> 1,1mole H2 --> 25l H2 gas at 20°C

as it burns at well over 500°C its more than 50l gas coming out of that little tube

@Assi2004 , Hi can you explain what you are saying differently. I am intrested in your input.

thanks

@einstyndotcom see mole (wikipedia)

different atoms have different masses per atom - so if one part reacts with one part u dont need the same mass - u have to use their molar weight

eg. H2O = 2*1,008g/mol + 15,999g/mol = ~18g/mol

as in 2 Al + 3 H2O --> Al2O3 + 3 H2

u get 3 mole H2 per mole H2O

so for 20g water thats 1,1 mole H2 produced... one mole gas is 22,4l gas at 0°C and normal pressure (1024mbar)

so 25l at normal temp + heat -> even more volume
