Abstract:
A process of dissociating steam into oxygen and hydrogen and controlling the combustion thereof, expected to yield clean, super-high temperature energy in a large and indefinite quantity. Heat dissociation of steam into hydrogen and oxygen, which has been insufficient or impossible, can be realized by reducing the pressure of the inside of a pressure and heat resistant boiler (8) to an extremely low level not higher than 1 atm. using a vacuum pump (20) and raising the temperature to a super-high level not lower than 2,500 C by, for example, focusing sunlight (18), or raising the temperature to a super-high level not lower than 10,000 C under ordinary pressure, and feeding a suitable quantity of steam (11) into this high temperature zone. At the instant of the heat dissociation, oxygen and hydrogen thus produced spontaneously ignite due to the super-high temperature within the boiler and, if necessary, a proper amount of a combustion aid such as oxygen or air, a combustion-controlling material, or the like (19) is added thereto to obtain a controlled oxy-hydrogen flame as a high heat energy source. This invention is suited for all industries that require heat sources including boilers and can find indefinite applications.
