The bubbler is a tank containing a mixture of water and hydrocabures (gasoline,
diesel, kerosene, crude oils and others derived from hydrocarbons...).
The hot gas flow coming from the exhaust of the engine circulates by the outside part of the reactor with a strong
kinetic energy, that contributes to bring up to very high temperature the steel rod (being used as heat accumulator) contained
in the pyrolytic chamber. The gases cross the engine and penetrate then in the bubbler containing the water/hydrocarbures
mixture. The vapor of the mixture is strongly aspired by the vacuum created by the engine intake and is pushed by the pressure
coming from the exhaust. The kinetic energy of the vapor is increased considerably by the reduction of the diameter in the
pyrolytic chamber (by Venturi effect). The combined effect of the high temperature and the increase of the kinetic energy
produces a thermochemical decomposition ( molecular breakdown ) of the water/hydrocarbures mixture.
The endothermic reactor forms an Electro-Plasma-Chemical unit (EPC) and it is now possible to create a high-output
fuel coming from the decomposition of the water contained in the water/hydrocarbures mixture. This fact is confirmed by the
presence of oxygen gaz (O2) in great amount measured in the exhaust.
Le bulleur est un réservoir contenant un mélange d'eau et d'hydrocarbures (essence,
diesel, kérosène, huiles usagées et autres dérivés d'hydrocarbures... ).
Le flux de gaz chauds provenant de l'échappement du moteur circule par la partie extérieur du réacteur avec une
forte énergie cinétique , cela contribue à porter à très haute température la tige d'acier ( servant d'accumulateur de chaleur
) contenue dans la chambre à pyrolyse. Les gaz traversent le réacteur et pénètrent ensuite dans le bulleur contenant le mélange
eau/carburant. Les vapeurs du mélange sont aspirées fortement par le vide créé par l'admission et poussées par la pression
provenant de l'échappement. L'énergie cinétique des vapeurs est augmentée considérablement ( dans la partie bleu clair ) par
la réduction du diamètre dans la chambre à pyrolyse ( effet de Venturi ). L'effet combiné de la haute température et de cette
énergie cinétique accrue provoque la décomposition thermochimique du mélange eau/carburant.
Le réacteur endothermique forme un ensemble électro-plasma-chimique (EPC) permettant de créer un carburant à haut
rendement provenant de la décomposition de l'eau contenue dans le mélange eau/hydrocarbures est confirmée par la présence
importante d'oxygène O2 dans les gaz d'échappement.
At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), researchers are developing a reformer, which, like the KCB&H one,
uses plasma for reforming hydrocarbons. The advantage of a plasma reformer is that it can use all forms of hydrocarbons, including
heavy oil fractions. In addition, the plasma reforming can operate in pyrolytic mode (thermal degrading of organic material
without air or oxygen) so that the carbon is turned into soot. This eliminates the formation of CO2. Plasma technology
allows for a more compact and lighter design than traditional reformers because the reaction occurs much faster.
MIT is studying use of the plasma reformer in the pyrolytic, partial oxidation and steam reforming methods mode. MIT's
"Plasmatron" operates at temperatures of over 2,000 oC, and the amount of hydrogen produced is around 80-90%. The
main disadvantage with plasma reforming is its dependency on electrical power. MIT hopes to lower the need for electricity
to 5% of the fuel's combustibility caloric value through heat recycling and a better reactor design; today it is 20%. [L.

Engines in a Petroleum emergency by The Biomass Energy Foundation Press

<< This report is one in a series of emergency technology assessments sponsored by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA). The purpose of this report is to develeop detailed, illustrated instrucions for the fabrication, installation,
and operation of a biomass gasifier unit (i.e. a "producer gas" generator, also called a "wood gas" generator) which is capable
of providing emergency fuel for vehicles, such as tractors and trucks, should normal petroleum sources be severely disrupted
for an extended period of time. These instructions have been prepared as a manual for use by any mechanic who is reasonably
proficient in metal fabrication or engine repair.
Fuel gas, produced by the reduction of coal and peat, was used for heating as early as 1840 in Europe and by 1884 had
been adapted to fuel engines in England. Prior to 1940, gas generator units were a familiar, but not extensively utilized,
technology. However, petroleum shortages during World War II led to widespread gas generator applications in the transportation
industries of Western Europe. (Charcoal burning taxis, a related application, were still common in Korea as late as 1970.)
The United States, never faced with such prolonged or severe oil shortages, has lagged far behind Europe and the Orient in
familiarity with and application of this technology. However, a catastrophic event could disrupt the supply of petroleum in
this country so severely that this technology might be critical in meeting the energy needs of some essential economic activities,
such as the production and distribution of food. >> |
