Energy from a bottle of water.

If it works out, cool:

30 kw is a lot of power…more than my house uses a day.

Sure, it’s under lab conditions but still a promising development. I’d love to know what kind of catalyst enables water to split on it’s own with only solar energy added. I’m not a huge fan of hydrogen power but I sure would be if a bottle of water could produce 30 kw without an overly expensive catalyst and simple/safe equipment for converting the hydrogen to power.

Otherwise I’m going to stick with high oil content algae. Nature is already doing a lot with photosynthesis. =)

Live Well!

And I’ll stick with GenIV reactors

I won’t be wronged. I won’t be insulted. I won’t be laid a-hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.

Anyone find any technical details on this? All these facts about “a bottle of water” and “30kW” seem to come out of nowhere.

By the way, kilowatts aren’t used by the day, they’re just used.

It’s KW/H. Call it 5kW for 6 hours or something like that.
