Abstract:

A scalable endothermic reaction apparatus, system and method captures, concentrates, and converts atmospheric heat and humidity into diatomic hydrogen and stoichiometric oxygen for use within an exothermic device such as an engine, a turbine, or a fuel cell. No nitrogen or carbon compounds are introduced into the process utilized by the apparatus. All operating matter and energy utilized in the process is recycled in a closed loop system. Energy emitted from the exothermic device as waste is captured and immediately returned as waste hot water to the endothermic device. The waste output of the work-producing device is thus an exploitable asset that can be repeatedly returned in service through the endothermic device, without any emissions from an exhaust or tailpipe in the system. At peak efficiency, the exothermic and endothermic processes are formed as an apparatus that is thermally sealed in a free-standing and self-sustaining operating package.
