Why is that a "real kicker"? The KOH serves to lower the electrical resistance of the water. Nafion membranes do the same thing WITHOUT electrolyte, but they are fragile and expensive. Electrolysis of water using a base electrolyte will produce hydrogen and oxygen. Normally, the oxygen is simply vented to the atmosphere, but it could be stored and compressed for later use. robert luis rabello "The Edge of Justice" Adventure for Your Mind http://www.newadventure.ca Ranger Supercharger Project Page http://www.members.shaw.ca/rabello/ _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
