Aluminum Gallium Water Reactor V2

This public disclosure discloses a novel reactor design specifically engineered for the controlled chemical reaction between aluminum and water in the presence of gallium, resulting in the generation of hydrogen gas and aluminum oxide. To address the inherent challenges of gallium-induced corrosion, all reactor components are constructed from non-metallic materials. A central feature of this reactor design is a mechanical stirrer strategically positioned at the core, effectively pushing the gallium towards the reactor\u27s perimeter through centrifugal forces. This motion ensures the continuous and uniform mixing of aluminum, water, and gallium, facilitating the desired chemical reaction. Additionally, a specialized mechanism, represented as a screw conveyor, is integrated into the reactor\u27s central region, efficiently extracting the produced aluminum oxide from the reaction mixture using a lifting screw motion, and placing it into a separate container for aluminum oxide. Aluminum and water outlets are positioned to deposit aluminum and water to the periphery of the reactor chamber, where the gallium is located. A gallium outlet allows for the replenishment of the gallium inside of the reactor. The Hydrogen produced from the reaction is directed towards a hydrogen fuel cell where it combines with outside air to produce water and electricity. The water is then redirected back into the reactor chamber. A heater element ensures optimal temperature for the reaction to take place. The reactor design presented herein offers a corrosion-resistant, efficient, and controllable system for the production of hydrogen gas and aluminum oxide for use in energy systems

Aluminum Gallium Water Hydrogen Fuel Cell System

The following public disclosure outlines an energy system that can be applied either to moving vehicles such as electric bicycles, automobiles, trains, planes etc, or stationary applications such as large scale batteries used to store electricity from renewable sources until it is required by the grid. The system is composed of the following parts: A storage container for aluminum, A storage container for water, a storage container for gallium, a reaction chamber, a recycling chamber, A fuel cell, and a rechargeable battery. In short, aluminum, water, and gallium is mixed into the reaction chamber. The gallium erodes the thin oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum, allowing for it to react with water to form aluminum oxide and hydrogen gas. The resultant hydrogen gas is directed to a fuel cell where it produces electricity and water. The electricity generated is directed either to a rechargeable battery such as a lithium ion battery, or used immediately. The water generated can then either be discarded or recycled back into the storage container containing water. The aluminum oxide and gallium solution that is leftover from the reaction is then directed to a recycling chamber where the gallium is separated from the aluminum oxide and reintroduced into the container for gallium. The aluminum oxide can either be discarded or directed to a separate container that holds the aluminum oxide for later reprocessing into aluminum

Large Battery For Grid Storage

Introduction In today\u27s rapidly evolving energy landscape, the transition to renewable electricity generation is becoming increasingly imperative to combat climate change and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. Renewable sources like solar and wind power offer clean and sustainable alternatives to traditional energy generation methods. However, these sources are inherently intermittent, dependent on weather conditions, and often produce surplus energy during periods of low demand. This unpredictability and variability in energy production underscore the critical need for large-scale batteries to store excess renewable energy and provide a reliable power supply when the sun isn\u27t shining or the wind isn\u27t blowing. Large-scale batteries serve as an essential component in ensuring a stable and resilient renewable energy grid, offering the potential to bridge the gap between energy supply and demand, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and pave the way for a sustainable energy future.

Aluminum Gallium Water Reactor V3

This public disclosure discloses a novel reactor design specifically engineered for the controlled chemical reaction between aluminum and water in the presence of gallium, resulting in the generation of hydrogen gas and aluminum oxide. A central feature of this reactor design is a mechanical stirrer strategically positioned at the core, effectively pushing the gallium towards the reactor\u27s perimeter through centrifugal forces. This motion ensures the continuous and uniform mixing of aluminum, water, and gallium, facilitating the desired chemical reaction. Additionally, a specialized mechanism, represented as a shaftless spiral conveyor (ribbon conveyor), is integrated into the reactor\u27s central region, efficiently extracting the produced aluminum oxide from the reaction mixture using a lifting screw motion, and placing it into a separate container for aluminum oxide. Aluminum and water outlets are positioned to deposit aluminum and water to the periphery of the reactor chamber, where the gallium is located. A gallium outlet allows for the replenishment of the gallium inside of the reactor. The Hydrogen produced from the reaction is directed towards a hydrogen fuel cell where it combines with outside air to produce water and electricity. The water is then redirected back into the reactor chamber. A heater element ensures optimal temperature for the reaction to take place, making sure the solution remains above 33 degrees celsius, thus ensuring the gallium is in a liquid state (melting point of Gallium is 29.76 degrees Celsius). A controller unit adjusts the different inputs into the reaction, including the amount of aluminum, water, and gallium introduced into the reactor chamber, the speed of the stirrer and shaftless spiral conveyor, as well as the temperature of the heater element, ensuring optimal reaction conditions. The optimal ratio of Gallium to Aluminum inside the reactor is 3:1 which the controller unit tries to maintain. The reactor design presented herein offers an efficient and controllable system for the production of hydrogen gas and aluminum oxide for use in energy systems
