OK- now we are getting somewhere with this international brainstorm... (i.e. lightning in a barrel ;-) What happens when you combine the above with the Kanzius/Heffner salt water and peroxide idea and the BLP-lite unstable hydrino possibility ? IOW - in looking for synergy in a hybrid design - and given that a simple cylindrical barrel or reactor, which is partly filled with salt water, and continually evacuated, so that there is a partial vacuum above the water -- ... and a cathode above the water is pulsed to provide an HV arc through the water vapor, with the water surface being the anode. ...and with an RF antenna underwater - providing some H2 (the Kanzius approach) ... ...which H2 and nascent hydrogen, as it is formed and when it gets to the surface, immediately interacts with the pulsed arc discharge, forming hydrinos with the emission of EUV ... ...and the EUV then interacts with the O2 in the water and in the vapor near the surface (as any HOOH has been forced to decay) ... ... but the whole thing is kept relatively cool (the arc is HV and low current) so that the O3 is stable with a lifetime of 10-15 minutes ... ...$64 question - will the gas being drawn off by the vacuum pump contain significant amounts of ozone?
