Make a water torch

Present your DIY projects, your new technical ideas, your innovations to test or your self-construction work. Because doing it yourself is often more economical and can be more efficient.

Brown gas

With water !

And a big electrolyser!

In a PVC tube, 50 ideally, 170 washers in stainless steel 316 or better + as many spacers, a diode bridge, a condo, all on the 220 and a fine torch

You have a Brown gas torch, so water.
Residual water may contain chromium 6, which ingested makes it fart and incidentally is a violent poison for the living.

More info on the subject.
http://www.brownsgas.com/welding.html

The advantage of brown gas welding lies in the very high temperature and the possibility of autogenous brazing between metals known to be incompatible with other processes.

Currently the leaders are the Koreans and the Chinese.

Areas of application:
The jeweller's
The industry, especially the arms industry.

I think there is a difference between what you produce and the brown gas which is explosion proof (rather anti-imploding) whose patent is Chinese and the production of US welding equipment
(if I have a good memory)

In case of doubt, the story begins in 1766:

and on the generator that I used for testing I put copper electrodes
what makes that the oxidation of copper "breaks" the stoecchiometric mixture between H and O and avoids the explosion
when I tested it I had a slight deflagration by igniting the mixture
