FIELD OF INVENTION
This invention in general is related to electrochemical conversion cells having high densities.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
典型的电化学金属到空气,并且燃料电池受到限制,因为阴极不能吸收不够的氧气。另一个缺点是昂贵的催化剂用于在许多情况下吸收吸收。
本发明通过将氧气转化为臭氧气体来克服上述限制。这产生了可用的单体氧,可以容易地转化为电能,更具体地,利用电离的单体氧气以经济地产生高功率密度。本发明提供一种方法,其提供了一种通过现有技术的电化学发电电池提供改进的性能。
The method herein will utilize any energy source that oxygen will absorb to effect its transformation into ozone. High-voltage ionization from electronic sources, ultraviolet light, ionization caused by radioactive materials, etc, may be used to cause this transformation. Any number of energy sources that can convert oxygen into ozone can be used and will not depart from the spirit of this invention.
将电离能量转换为电流的装置已在现有技术中使用,结果不佳。
原子电池通过利用放射性物质排出的电离颗粒产生电流。威廉R.Corliss讨论了他报告中通过放射性同位素排出的电离颗粒的直接使用;直接转换能量(1964)PP。28-29。在他的报告中,由锶-90发出的高速电离β颗粒产生电离颗粒的电流。颗粒上的电荷通过金属圆筒中和。中和的颗粒会发现它们回到锶-90再次被电离。只要锶-90仍然是放射性的,这个循环自身重复。通过该方法产生的功率产生高电压,但产生极低的水平。
Despite the prior art that exists in this technology, it is believed that there has not previously existed a small, compact electrical device capable of generating high levels of power. It is the object of this invention to provide a method embodying an improved device to furnish an efficient and economical source of electrical power. The present invention resolves limitations of prior art electrochemical cells.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a direct method utilizing ozone gas to generate electrical energy, and a new and novel device for utilizing various ionizing sources with high efficiencies.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
根据本发明,提供了利用电离能源来产生来自现有供给氧气供应的臭氧气体的方法。
In the present invention, new and novel improvements are apparent. Limitations of prior art have been resolved by the method disclosed herein. The need for expensive catalysts such as platinum is eliminated. The present invention utilizes the basic principles of electrochemical cells known in the art. However, the present invention is unique in that it utilizes generated ozone gas from its external oxygen supply. When ozone is generated by the present invention it gives up free electrons. The ozone also donates monatomic oxygen to the cathode. As oxygen (O1) enters the cell, it is absorbed by the cathode electrode.
氧原子(O1)与通常为KOH + H 2 O的电解质中的水分子反应,导致带负电荷的羟基(OH - )离子。在该反应中,阴极失去电子并变得带正电。
羟基离子通过电解质迁移并与氧化它氧化的相反阳极电极反应。阳极通过反应接收电子,并且当电负载连接在电极之间时,电子将从带负电荷的阳极流到阴极。我不符合所涉及的电化学过程的主张。我掌握了用于向细胞输送单体氧的方法。从许多能源产生的转换臭氧和本发明中的氧气可以直接用于驱动电动机,照明,热量,以及用于电化学。
本发明的方法包括本发明。用于利用与空气围绕的电化学电池阴极相邻的电离能量的装置,或者来自其他氧气源,例如过氧化氢。提供手段以将臭氧气体转换为电能。当本发明用作燃料电池时,在阳极处提供电离能源也是有利的。
