剛看到的報導,非常有趣,和大家分享. http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/11/can-saltwater-be-burned-as-fuel/ 原文如下: Can saltwater be burned as fuel? A gentleman from Erie named John Kanzius made a somewhat "shocking" discovery while he was working on a radio-wave generator he had developed for the treatment of cancer. While attempting to desalinate sea water using radio frequencies, he noticed flashes, and within a few days, had saltwater burning in a test-tube as if it were a candle. The discovery spawned interest from the scientific community, mostly concerned with whether or not the water could be used as a fuel, and of course, healthy doses of disbelief. Last week, a Penn State University chemist named Rustum Roy held a demonstration proving that the science is sound, noting that the water doesn't burn, though the radio frequencies weaken the bonds holding together the salt, releasing hydrogen which is ignited when exposed to the RF field. Mr. Kanzius and Dr. Roy say the question now is the efficiency of the energy, and are presenting the technology to the US Department of Defense and Department of Energy to investigate how useful the technology will be. Of the plentiful maybe-fuel (which apparently burns so hot it can melt test-tubes) Dr. Roy says, "This is the most abundant element in the world. It is everywhere," and (without recognition of the poetic irony, as far as we can tell), "Seeing it burn gives me chills." Check the TV report after the break to see the water in action. 影片裡談到 John Kanzius原本是做抗癌細胞的研究,一天突發奇想 為什麼不用 radio frequency 破壞癌細胞呢? radio frequency 不會損壞健康細胞, 但會加熱含有金屬像是Au(gold)的細胞. 除此之外他也意外發現 radio frequency 可以使海水自己燃燒起來. 一個 Penn State U 的化學家 Rustum Roy 出面證實這是有充分理由的(不是亂蓋的啦) radio frequency 會使海水的鍵結變弱,釋放出氧氣和氫氣而燃燒 而他們又做了個實驗,若將手放入 RF generator 不會有事情發生, 但若把燈管放入則燈管會發亮! 接著John White去測火焰的溫度, 發現竟然有 1500 度C, 真是不可思議! 他們將一個需要熱才會動的引擎放在試管上方,而燃料就是海水,引擎運作非常良好. 最後是討論,若這技術真的能成熟,將會是非常好用的燃料,因為地球的水資源相當豐富! 非常有意思的構想! 以上為不負責任翻譯. :p -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 24.22.127.90 ※ 編輯: flyinblue01 來自: 24.22.127.90 (09/13 15:17)

想太多,要震盪個好幾天才產生足夠的氫氣自燃耶XD

只要放出的能量遠大於輸入的能量有啥不可行的?

要應用的話,還必須效益夠高,並且壓低成本,是可以期待啦

But 產生射頻電波的能量有多大呢?

如果把海水電解成氫跟氧,可以拿來當燃料,多出來的氘

已經可以拿來發千億年份的電了,氫跟氧這個附加產物應該

幾乎不可能用完吧..||||
