Howdy yall,
This is my first post here and what brought me here was this idea I had looking at an Oil rig. It looked kinda like a dry cell and I knew it wasn't but I thought what if it was?
So on this note I am thinking what would it take to build one?
First I am thinking to accomplish this it would help to establish oneself as a 501c non profit co-op. Free money from grants and private individual investment and backing...
Then the materials themselves... Lots of stainless steel and massive tubing...No idea how much that would cost... and the electrolyte...is natural salt water enough or would it take barges of Baking soda (or lye)?
and the electricity...On the open ocean that could be as easy as Massive wind turbines and solar panel fields...
And all to do what?
To make enough hydrogen to supplement or replace the petroleum industry.
And why not?
More and more folks are looking for a way out of the Oil economy. We know what Hydrogen can do. If it could be produced on a massive industrial scale...even on a lake ,pond, or river...to start small and show the potential for larger investors....
Hydrogen powered Ocean Liners...
What do yall think? Am I dreaming to big?
