Abstract

Apparatus for converting mechanical motive power (e.g. from a windmill) into fuel (e.g. hydrogen) by way generating electricity for the electrolysis of an electrolyte into constituents including a fuel gas comprises an electrolysis chamber 12 having electrodes 18, 20 operable by the application of electric current thereto to decompose an electrolyte within the chamber into its constituents, the electrolyte having a fuel gas e.g. hydrogen as a substantial constituent, means for separating 22 and collecting 13 the fuel gas, and means for generating the current electromagnetically including a stator assembly 32 comprising conductors carried in or on wall structure of the chamber and operatively connected to one of the electrodes, a rotor 34 or other carrier assembly guided for movement relative to the stator assembly and carrying a plurality of magnetic poles 38 in coacting relationship to the conductors for the current generation, and means 44, 46 for applying motive power in use for movement of the carrier assembly. Heat derived from the operation of the generator passes to the electrolyte for improved efficiency, the gas pressurisation of the electrolyte also adds to efficiency, and devices may be included for automatic regulation of the current applied at the electrodes and for over-load protection of the generating means. <IMAGE>
