20140262757 | FILTER STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF FILTRATION FOR HYDROGEN ON DEMAND ELECTROLYSIS FUEL CELL SYSTEM - A filter structure and method of filtration is disclosed for use in an electrolysis fuel cell system that is designed to produce hydrogen and oxygen (HHO) gas on-demand and to supply these gasses into the combustion chambers of internal combustion engines. The filter separates residual fluids and byproducts from HHO gas that is generated by the hydrogen on demand system, and is designed to be utilized with an electrolyte fluid reservoir; a pump and heat exchanger; and a uniquely-configured electrolyzer. The filter structure is multi-stage, and the disclosed method involves porting the HHO gas and byproducts through each filter stage separately to accomplish improved filtration. | 09-18-2014 |
20140353143 | HEAT PUMP HOT-WATER SUPPLY DEVICE - A heat pump hot-water supply device includes: a tank; a refrigerant circuit having a water heat exchanger; water conduits; an electrolysis device having an electrode pair provided in a water channel upstream of the water heat exchanger, in a flow channel of water that includes the water conduits; and a control unit that executes a reversal initial operation of reversing the polarity of the electrode pair in the electrolysis device, and discharging, at a position upstream of the water heat exchanger, water that is treated in the electrolysis device during a period after polarity reversal until a predetermined condition is satisfied. | 12-04-2014 |
20150136588 | Apparatus with Cold Anode for High-Temperature Electrolytic Hydrogen Loading and Hydrogen Generation - An apparatus comprising a vessel containing an electrically conductive electrolyte. The electrolyte contains hydrogen. A cathode and anode are disposed in the electrolyte and are connected to a source of electrical power. A portion of the vessel interior is in a hot zone, and a portion is in a cool zone. The cathode is disposed in the hot zone and the anode is disposed in the cool zone. The electrolyte is in contact with both the cathode and anode and is continuous between the cathode and anode such that it conducts an electrical current between the cathode and anode. Because the anode is at a temperature lower than the cathode, anodic corrosion is greatly reduced and the apparatus can be operated continuously for long periods. | 05-21-2015 |
20150315720 | ELECTROLYTE CONCENTRATION CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HIGH RATE ELECTROPLATING - An electroplating apparatus for filling recessed features on a semiconductor substrate includes a vessel configured to maintain a concentrated electroplating solution at a temperature of at least about 40° C., wherein the solution would have formed a precipitate at 20° C. This vessel is in fluidic communication with an electroplating cell configured for bringing the concentrated electrolyte in contact with the semiconductor substrate at a temperature of at least about 40° C., or the vessel is the electroplating cell. In order to prevent precipitation of metal salts from the electrolyte, the apparatus further includes a controller having program instructions for adding a diluent to the concentrated electroplating solution in the vessel to avoid precipitation of a salt from the concentrated electroplating solution in response to a signal indicating that the electrolyte is at risk of precipitation. | 11-05-2015 |
