Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to contribute reduction in CO2 by using electricity made from the sunlight, natural light, or natural energy and using ultraviolet light/infrared LED light to generate electricity (electrons) and hydrogen to be energy sources, in order to suppress consumption of fossil fuel including petroleum and coal as much as possible because a high content of CO2 in the atmosphere caused by occurrence of environmental destruction would result in weather modification causing many disasters, the CO2 being more greatly generated by greater consumption of the fossil fuel.SOLUTION: A method for generating electricity (electrons) and hydrogen (of an oxygen generation type) using photosynthesis of plants is invented. An oxide semiconductor is immersed in iodide solution using iodine contained in sea weed to generate iodide for generating electricity (electrons) and hydrogen (of the oxygen generation type) while using photosynthesis. The method also can use ultraviolet light, infrared light, etc. included in the sunlight.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

本発明は、上面は透明のガラス、下面に強化ガラス等反射物（板）を設置した容器に酸化物半導体（酸化亜鉛、二酸化スズ、酸化インジウム、ＩＴＯや酸化銅、酸化銀など）とヨウ素を含む水溶液を入れ太陽光を照射する。光合成を通じて電子の発生を生じさせる装置である。
ヨウ素を含む水溶液とは海藻、藍藻、アオコ、イシクラゲ、キクラゲなど利用した水溶液も含む。 反応を良くするためこの装置は薄平たくする。
また電極は、陰極（カソード）は接地極から取り、陽極（アノード）は容器の中に電極を設置する。In the present invention, an oxide semiconductor (zinc oxide, tin dioxide, indium oxide, ITO, copper oxide, silver oxide, etc.) and iodine are placed in a container having a transparent glass on the upper surface and a reflector (plate) such as tempered glass on the lower surface. Put the aqueous solution containing it and irradiate it with sunlight. It is a device that generates electrons through photosynthesis.
The aqueous solution containing iodine includes aqueous solutions using seaweed, cyanobacteria, blue-green algae, medusa jellyfish, and jellyfish. The device is flattened for better reaction.
In addition, as for the electrode, the cathode (cathode) is taken from the ground electrode, and the anode (anode) is placed in the container.

現在大気中のＣＯ２の増加で温暖化が進み気候の変調が来されていると考えられている。 そのためＣＯ２の削減が急務で、特に化石燃料を使う発電や装置・機器などからのＣＯ２の排出が大きい。 そこで、自然エネルギーである太陽光を利用して発電し、装置・機器の動力源とする。
太陽光発電（太陽電池）は環境にやさしいエネルギー利用方法であり、ＣＯ２の削減に貢献する。It is thought that climate change has been brought about by the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere. For this reason, reduction of CO2 is an urgent issue, and in particular, CO2 emissions from power generation, devices and equipment using fossil fuels are large. Therefore, solar power, which is natural energy, is used to generate power and use it as a power source for devices and equipment.
Photovoltaic power generation (solar cell) is an environmentally friendly energy utilization method and contributes to CO2 reduction.

現在のところ太陽電池は各社から多く作られている。 しかし、酸化物半導体とヨウ素を含む水溶液に光合成を組み合わせた太陽電池は初めてである。今までは太陽光を利用して化学反応と電気分解等を用いて太陽電池を作っていた。光合成である２Ｈｅ（ジプロトン）を利用していないため複雑な過程をしている。At present, many solar cells are made by various companies. However, this is the first solar cell that combines photosynthesis with an aqueous solution containing an oxide semiconductor and iodine. Until now, solar cells were made using chemical reaction and electrolysis using sunlight. Since 2He (diproton), which is photosynthesis, is not used, the process is complicated.

The container containing the aqueous solution uses transparent glass on the top and tempered glass that reflects sunlight on the bottom (bottom).

物理的に光子の衝突から短時間ではあるが２Ｈｅ（ジプトロン）が発生している。 ２Ｈｅで発生する電子は先にも述べたがミュー粒子（μ−）で電気分解で発生するほど発生しない。 微細な反応であるため、長時間掛かる。 しかし、簡単な反応であるため各自個人的に使用できる。
酸化物半導体に酸化亜鉛を水溶液に海藻（ヨウ素を含んだ）を浸した水を使用する。 なお酸化亜鉛を粉末にすると効率が上がる。

このように太陽光の光合成によってＨＩが分解されヨウ化イオンになり再びヨウ素Ｉ２と結合してＩ３ −となり酸化亜鉛と反応する。
上記の反応が繰り返される。
酸素ができるのは植物の光合成の特徴である。光合成細菌も同じである。

本発明は以上のような構造である。Physically, 2He (diptron) is generated from the collision of photons in a short time. As described above, electrons generated by 2He are not generated as much as they are generated by electrolysis of mu particles (μ − ). Because it is a fine reaction, it takes a long time. However, since it is a simple reaction, it can be used individually.
Water in which zinc oxide is immersed in an oxide semiconductor and seaweed (containing iodine) in an aqueous solution is used. If zinc oxide is powdered, the efficiency will increase.
Figure 2017191922
 HI (hydrogen iodide) is a colorless gas with a strong irritating odor and corresponds to a deleterious substance (poisonous substance). Then, it synthesize | combines with the light reflected and irradiated with sunlight, 2He (diproton) is generated, and it decomposes | disassembles.
Figure 2017191922
 In this way, HI is decomposed by photosynthesis of sunlight and becomes iodide ions, which are combined with iodine I 2 again to become I 3 − and react with zinc oxide.
The above reaction is repeated.
Oxygen is a characteristic of plant photosynthesis. The same is true for photosynthetic bacteria.
Zinc iodide ZnI 2 seems to be usable for shielding radiation, but has hygroscopicity and a specific odor, and reacts with light and air. Care must be taken because it is nonflammable but produces harmful substances by heating.
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
(I) Water (aqueous solution) dipped in seaweed is placed in (1) an upper transparent glass container, and (2) zinc oxide powder is put therein and mixed well.
(B) Install the container in the direction in which sunlight hits the upper surface of the container.
(3) Make a container installation stand in advance.
(C) A water level gauge is attached to the container, and the aqueous solution is checked.
(D) Do not add a large amount of zinc oxide powder at once, but add it little by little according to the capacity.
(5) Aqueous solution inlet (6) Zinc oxide powder inlet (7) Hydrogen extraction pipe (a valve is attached to the end) (8) Anode, lead wire, etc.
The thickness of the container is 10 to 20 mm to ensure light collision energy.
(E) Connect the lead wire of (9) the cathode and (8) the anode separately to the storage battery.
(F) Connect a pipe to a low pressure tank or hydrogen storage alloy separately.

必ず通電する前に、低圧タンクあるいは水素吸蔵合金に水素取出用パイプが繋がっていること、またバルブが開いていることを確認する。
反応が微細なので長時間掛けて発生するので、水位計を見ながら通電する。
水位計で水溶液が少なくなっていると発生が行われている。 別途低圧タンクあるいは水素吸蔵合金などに水素を貯めた後、水素取出用パイプに取り付けてあるバルブを閉める。
蓄電池への充電は８〜１０時間位を目安とする。When using the present invention, the lid of the aqueous solution inlet (5) is opened and the aqueous solution is charged.
When the tank is full while checking the water level gauge (4), finish filling.
After closing the lid (5), the powder is charged from the zinc oxide powder inlet (2) and the inlet is covered. (8) Anode lead wire (9) Connect the cathode lead wire to the storage battery. The cathode lead wire is connected to the (10) type 3 ground wire.
Before energizing, make sure that the hydrogen extraction pipe is connected to the low-pressure tank or hydrogen storage alloy and that the valve is open.
Since the reaction is fine, it takes a long time, so energize while looking at the water level gauge.
Occurrence occurs when water level is low in the water level gauge. Separately store hydrogen in a low-pressure tank or hydrogen storage alloy, and then close the valve attached to the hydrogen extraction pipe.
Charging the storage battery is about 8 to 10 hours.
