  Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 obtain hydrogen gas by desulfurizing sulfur from a liquid raw material such as kerosene, mixing steam with desulfurized kerosene, or mixing the steam and then heating. . In Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, when hydrogen gas is produced without desulfurization from a liquid raw material such as kerosene, an odor such as sulfur is generated when the generated hydrogen gas is burned. For this reason, when manufacturing hydrogen gas from fuels, such as kerosene, you must provide the desulfurization apparatus for performing a desulfurization operation | work first from liquid raw materials, such as kerosene. Therefore, by providing this desulfurization apparatus, the cost of the whole apparatus which manufactures hydrogen gas became high.

  In the technique of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, a large amount of fuel such as kerosene is used as a main raw material for obtaining hydrogen, and thus the cost of the main raw material is high.

  The present invention uses a large amount of special water as a main raw material and uses only a small amount of a liquid raw material such as kerosene, thereby producing a fuel gas that produces hydrogen gas and oxygen gas at a low cost. It is intended to provide a method. Another object of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive method for producing fuel gas that can eliminate the generation of odor during combustion without providing a desulfurization step.

  The fuel gas production method according to the present invention is a special water in which water is first passed through an ion exchange resin, and then either tourmaline and rhyolite or granite rock are passed first and the other later. And an emulsion comprising a mixture of a liquid raw material and a vegetable oil, wherein the weight ratio of the special water is 99.4 out of a total of 100% of the weight ratio of the special water, the liquid raw material and the vegetable oil. %, And the emulsion containing the weight ratio of the liquid raw material of 0.5% or more and the weight ratio of the vegetable oil of 0.1% or more is contained in a sealed state in a container, and the emulsion in the sealed container is Hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are generated in the sealed container by heating with a heating means. In the present invention, the weight ratio of the special water is 89.9% or less, and the weight ratio of the liquid raw material is 10% or more. The present invention is characterized in that the emulsion in the airtight container is heated in a state where tourmaline is put in the airtight container. The present invention is characterized in that the emulsion in the closed container is heated in a state in which at least one of alumina or silica is put in the tourmaline in the closed container. The present invention provides the liquid raw material among kerosene, light oil, a mixture of light oil and kerosene, heavy oil, a mixture of heavy oil and kerosene, gasoline, naphtha, ethanol, methanol, benzene, toluene, xylene, liquefied petroleum gas, and liquefied city gas. It is characterized by having made any one of these. The present invention is characterized in that, when the liquid raw material is kerosene, gasoline or naphtha, the vegetable oil is a mixture of castor oil and at least one of rapeseed oil, sunflower oil or rice oil. . The present invention is characterized in that when the liquid raw material is any one of light oil, a mixture of light oil and kerosene, heavy oil, a mixture of heavy oil and kerosene, ethanol, and methanol, the vegetable oil is castor oil. Is. The present invention is characterized in that the rhyolite is a rock composed of at least one of obsidian, pearlite and pine stone. The present invention is characterized in that the tourmaline used for producing the special water is mixed with a metal composed of at least one of aluminum, stainless steel and silver.

In the fuel gas production method of the present invention, an emulsion (liquid emulsion fuel) is produced from special water (creation water), a liquid raw material, and vegetable oil, and the emulsion is heated to produce a fuel gas (hydrogen gas and oxygen gas). ). Creation water, which is a component that produces an emulsion, contains hydrogen ions (H ⁺ ), hydrogen (H ₂ ), hydroxyl groups (OH ⁻ ), active hydrogen, dissolved oxygen, and hydronium ions (H ₃ O). ⁺ ) And hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ). Therefore, by heating the emulsion in a closed container, hydrogen ions (H ⁺ ), hydrogen (H ₂ ), hydroxyl groups (OH ⁻ ), active hydrogen, dissolved oxygen and hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) and hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ) generate a large amount of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. Heating the emulsion in a closed container is thought to induce the generation of a large amount of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. Since a large amount of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas is generated from the creation water, the weight ratio of the creation water, which is the water constituting the emulsion, can be 99.6% or less. That is, even when the water constituting the emulsion (creation water) is close to 100%, a large amount of fuel gas containing hydrogen gas and oxygen gas can be obtained by heating the emulsion in a sealed container.

  Liquid raw materials such as kerosene constituting the emulsion are effective for improving the ignitability when the fuel gas is ignited and for increasing the combustion temperature of the fuel gas. The temperature at which the combustion gas is combusted can be raised to a high temperature by setting the generation water to 90% or less and the liquid raw material such as kerosene to about 10% or more.

  Hydrogen peroxide having a weight of 0.3% or more is mixed with 100% by weight of the emulsion, and the mixture is heated in a closed container. As a result, hydrogen peroxide acts as an inducing agent for increasing the amount of oxygen gas generated from the created water, and also generates oxygen gas from itself to increase the oxygen gas contained in the fuel gas. Can do.

  In a conventional method for producing hydrogen gas from petroleum fuel such as kerosene, sulfur contained in kerosene or the like must be removed by a desulfurization apparatus, and a desulfurization apparatus must be provided. On the other hand, in this invention, the smell at the time of combustion of combustion gas can be extinguished by putting tourmaline or a mixture of tourmaline and a metal in an airtight container. That is, in the present invention, in order to eliminate the odor generated when the combustion gas is burned, it is not necessary to provide a conventionally required desulfurization apparatus, and the cost of the apparatus can be reduced.

  In order to emulsify a large amount of special water and a small amount of liquid raw material such as kerosene, the vegetable oil can be emulsified smoothly by mixing castor oil with at least one of rapeseed oil, sunflower oil or rice oil. be able to. Moreover, the emulsion stable state can be maintained for a long period (from 1 week to 1 month or more).

  In the fuel gas production method of the present invention, an emulsion is produced mainly from special water, a liquid raw material such as kerosene, and vegetable oil, and the fuel gas is produced using the emulsion.

  Before describing the method for producing fuel gas of the present invention, first, water (hereinafter referred to as “creation water”) used in the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing an embodiment of a device for producing fresh water. The first soft water generator 10, the second soft water generator 12, the ion generator 14, and the rock storage container 16 are sequentially connected in series via connecting pipes 18 a, 18 b, and 18 c. For example, water having a pressure such as tap water is supplied from the water supply pipe 20 to the first soft water generator 10 through the communication pipe 22 to the first soft water generator 10. An inlet opening / closing valve 24 such as a faucet is provided between the water supply pipe 20 and the communication pipe 22, and a check valve 26 is provided in the middle of the communication pipe 22. A discharge pipe 28 is attached to the outlet side of the rock container 16, and an outlet opening / closing valve 30 is provided at the tip or middle of the discharge pipe 28.

  In the case of tap water, the water fed from the water supply pipe 20 passes through the first soft water generator 10, the second soft water generator 12, the ion generator 14, and the rock storage container 16 in this order, and the outlet opening / closing valve 30. Is taken out from the discharge pipe 28 by opening. In the case other than tap water, although not shown, the water stored in the water tank is introduced into the first soft water generator 10 via the water supply pipe 20 by a pump. In this case, a check valve 26 is provided between the pump and the first soft water generator 10.

  The first soft water generator 10 and the second soft water generator 12 contain a large amount of granular ion exchange resin 32 therein, and a cross-sectional view thereof is shown in FIG. The main bodies 34 of the soft water generators 10 and 12 have a cylindrical shape, and have water inlets 36a and 36b on the upper and lower ends of the cylindrical shape. Inside the cylindrical main body 34, shield members 38a and 38b each having a hole in the center are provided on the inner wall at a position slightly away from the upper and lower end surfaces. Between the pair of shield members 38a, 38b, the ion exchange resin 32 is stored in a fine mesh 40. The shield member 38 having a hole in the center is provided on the inner wall at a position slightly apart from the upper and lower entrances 36a, 36b. The net 40 containing the ion exchange resin 32 is disposed between the pair of shield members 38. This is because the spaces 42a and 42b are formed in the vicinity of the entrances 36a and 36b. The reason why the water is allowed to enter and exit from the central hole of the shield members 38 a and 38 b is that the water always contacts the ion exchange resin 32. The reason why the ion exchange resin 32 is put into the net 40 is that the granular ion exchange resin 32 can be taken out together with the net 40 when the granular ion exchange resin 32 is taken out for cleaning.

  The first soft water generator 10 and the second soft water generator 12 have a height of, for example, 80 cm and an inner diameter of 10 cm. For example, the storage height of the ion exchange resin 32 is set to 70 cm (the spaces 42 a and 42 b exist above and below). At this time, the storage height of the ion exchange resin 32 needs to be high enough to allow ion exchange with water. On the other hand, when the storage height of the ion exchange resin 32 becomes too high (for example, when the storage height of the ion exchange resin 32 is about 200 cm or more), the ion exchange resin 32 becomes a resistance of water, and the inside of the soft water generator. Since the passing flow rate decreases, the storage height of the ion exchange resin 32 is set to a height at which the flow rate does not decrease. The container for storing the ion exchange resin 32 is divided into two because the height of the first soft water generator 10 and the second soft water generator 12 is as high as the ion generator 14 and the rock container 16. This is to keep the pressure low and to prevent the flow rate from decreasing due to the pressure loss of water passing therethrough. It is also possible to combine the two soft water generators 10 and 12 into one soft water generator.

The ion exchange resin 32 is for removing metal ions such as Ca ²⁺ , Mg ^2+, and Fe ²⁺ contained in water to soften the water. In particular, the water hardness is reduced to zero. It is for lowering to a near extent. As the ion exchange resin 32, for example, a strongly acidic cation exchange resin (RzSO ₃ Na) obtained by uniformly sulfonating a spherical copolymer of styrene / divinylbenzene is used. This ion exchange resin 32 causes the following ion exchange reaction with metal ions such as Ca ²⁺ , Mg ²⁺ and Fe ²⁺ contained in water.
2RzSO ₃ Na + Ca ²⁺ → (RzSO ₃ ) ₂ Ca + 2Na ⁺
2RzSO ₃ Na + Mg ²⁺ → (RzSO ₃ ) ₂ Mg + 2Na ⁺
2RzSO ₃ Na + Fe ²⁺ → (RzSO ₃ ) ₂ Fe + 2Na ⁺
That is, by passing the ion exchange resin 32, Ca ²⁺ , Mg ²⁺ , Fe ^{2+ and the} like contained in water can be removed. By using a strongly acidic cation exchange resin (RzSO ₃ Na) as the ion exchange resin 32, sodium ions (Na ⁺ ) are generated. The ion exchange resin 32 may be one that generates other than Na ⁺ , but one that generates Na ⁺ is preferred. If the water is tap water, the tap water contains chlorine in addition to metal ions such as Ca ²⁺ , Mg ^2+, and Fe ^2+, but the tap water passes through the ion exchange resin 32. As a result, no change occurs in this chlorine.

On the other hand, when water (H ₂ O) passes through the ion exchange resin 32, it changes as follows.
H ₂ O → H ⁺ + OH ⁻ (1)
H ₂ O + H ⁺ → H ₃ O ⁺ (2)
That is, as shown in (1) and (2), hydroxide ions (OH ⁻ ) and hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) are generated from water by passing through the ion exchange resin 32.

As described above, when the water is hard water, the metal ions such as Ca ²⁺ , Mg ^2+, and Fe ²⁺ are removed from the water by passing through the ion exchange resin 32 to become soft water. Further, by passing through the ion exchange resin 32, Na ⁺ , OH ^−, and hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) are generated in the water. However, chlorine (Cl) contained in tap water passes through without being ionized. Depending on the type of the ion exchange resin 32, Na ⁺ may not be generated.

Next, a partial cross-sectional view of the ion generator 14 is shown in FIG. The ion generator 14 is configured such that a plurality of cartridges 44 are connected in series in the vertical direction in the same arrangement. Each cartridge 44 contains either granular tourmaline 46 or a mixture of granular tourmaline 46 and plate-like metal 48. Tourmaline has a positive electrode and a negative electrode. By using the positive electrode and the negative electrode, water has an electromagnetic wave having a wavelength of 4 to 14 microns, and water clusters are cut by hydronium. This is for generating ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ). The energy of the electromagnetic wave having a wavelength of 4 to 14 microns is 0.004 watt / cm ² . Here, the tourmaline 46 may be a product obtained by finely pulverizing tourmaline stones, but is commercially available with a weight ratio of tourmaline, ceramic, and aluminum oxide (including silver) of about 10:80:10. It may be a tourmaline mixture called a tourmaline pellet. The ceramic contained in this tourmaline pellet acts to separate the positive and negative electrodes. Here, the tourmaline 46 disappears in a predetermined period (for example, about 3 months at a diameter of 4 mm) by stirring the water by mixing the tourmaline 46 at a ratio of 10% or more by weight with respect to the ceramic and heating at 800 ° C. or higher. 46 can be made. The tourmaline 46 is increased in strength by heating, and the wear period can be extended. The ion exchange resin 32 is passed to make the water soft water whose hardness is close to zero, and the tourmalines 46 are rubbed together in the soft water. With soft water having a hardness close to zero, it is possible to prevent magnesium and calcium from adhering to the negative electrode of the tourmaline 46, and it is possible to prevent the tourmaline 46 from acting as a positive and negative electrode.

  As the metal 48, at least one metal selected from aluminum, stainless steel, and silver is used. The metal 48 is preferably a metal that does not generate rust or dissolve in water. Of these metals 48, aluminum has a bleaching action as well as a bactericidal action and an antibacterial action, stainless steel has a bactericidal action and an antibacterial action, and a cleaning improvement action, and silver has a bactericidal action and an antibacterial action. Yes. As the metal 48, copper and lead cannot be used because they have toxicity. Also, expensive materials such as gold cannot be used because of cost. The weight ratio between the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 is preferably 10: 1 to 1:10. Beyond that range, there is too much material on one side, and the effects of both materials cannot be demonstrated simultaneously.

The cartridge 44 has a cylindrical shape with one end open, and a plurality of holes 52 are provided on the bottom surface 50 thereof. When the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 are put in the cartridge 44, the size of the hole 52 is set so that the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 do not pass through the hole 52 of the bottom surface 50. As shown in FIG. 3, each cartridge 44 has a bottom surface 50 provided with a large number of holes 52 on the lower side, and a tourmaline 46 and a metal 48 are placed on the bottom surface 50. And it sets so that the inside of each cartridge 44 may flow from lower to higher. That is, in each cartridge 44, the water that has passed through the numerous holes 52 in the bottom surface 50 is set so as to be sprayed onto the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 from the bottom to the top. Here, since the tap water has a high water pressure, the water having the water pressure collides with the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 in the cartridge 44 vigorously, and the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 are agitated in the cartridge 44 by the power of the water. As described above, the size and number of the holes 52 are set. Stirring the tourmaline by injecting water into the tourmaline causes friction between the tourmaline and the water due to the agitation, and positive and negative electrodes from the tourmaline dissolve in the water, cutting the water cluster and hydronium ions ( This is because a large amount of (H ₃ O ⁺ ) is generated.

  As an actual installation example, the cartridges 44 having an inner diameter of 5 cm and a storage volume of 7 cm in depth are stacked in four stages, and the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 are sufficiently stored in the cartridge 44. Is set to an amount that can move freely within the cartridge 44. The number of cartridges 44 may be increased or decreased, or a single cartridge 44 with a larger storage volume may be used. As described above, the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 are dispersed in the plurality of cartridges 44 having a small accommodation volume, and the plurality of cartridges 44 are connected, whereby the stirring efficiency of the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 is increased by the momentum of water. Can be increased. Since the tourmaline 46 stored in the cartridge 44 dissolves in water and disappears in a few months, each cartridge 44 can be easily attached and detached by means of, for example, screwing, and the tourmaline 46 is easily refilled in each cartridge 44. It can be so. The metal 48 does not dissolve in water and need not be replenished. However, the entire cartridge 44 containing the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 can be replaced. The accommodation volume of the cartridge 44 may be changed according to the flow rate of use.

In order to increase the negative ions added to the water passing through the cartridge 44, the tourmaline 46 rubs against each other so that the positive and negative electrodes are dissolved in the water. Further, in order to cut the water cluster and generate a large amount of hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ), only the tourmaline 46 may be accommodated in the cartridge 44. However, by mixing the metal 48 with the tourmaline 46, the negative ions generated in the tourmaline 46 when they come into contact with each other can be further increased.

Since tourmaline 46 has a plus electrode and a minus electrode, when tourmaline is stirred with water, water (H ₂ O) is dissociated into hydrogen ions (H ⁺ ) and hydroxide ions (OH ⁻ ).
H ₂ O → H ⁺ + OH ⁻ (1)
Further, hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) having a surface active action are generated by hydrogen ions (H ⁺ ) and water (H ₂ O). The amount of hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) generated is much larger than the amount generated by the ion exchange resin 32.
H ₂ O + H ⁺ → H ₃ O ⁺ (2)
A part of the hydronium ion (H ₃ O ⁺ ) is combined with water (H ₂ O) to become a hydroxyl ion (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ) and a hydrogen ion (H ⁺ ).
H ₃ O ⁺ + H ₂ O → H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ + 2H ⁺ (3)

By passing the water that has passed through the ion exchange resin 32 through the ion generator 14, hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ), hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ), H ^+, and OH ⁻ Will occur. Note that chlorine (Cl) that has passed through the ion exchange resin 32 and Na ⁺ generated in the ion exchange resin 32 pass through the ion generator 14 without reacting.

  The water that has passed through the ion generator 14 is then allowed to pass through the interior of a rock container 16 that stores rocks containing a large amount of silicon dioxide among igneous rocks (rocks containing about 65 to 76% silicon dioxide). Among the igneous rocks (divided into volcanic rocks and plutonic rocks), as rocks 54 containing a large amount of silicon dioxide, volcanic rocks include rhyolite such as obsidian, pearlite, and pine sebite, and plutonic rocks include granite. The rock container 16 stores at least one kind of rocks among these rocks. Rhyolite such as obsidian, pearlite and pine stone, or granite has negative electrons.

  Among these igneous rocks, rocks containing a large amount of silicon dioxide (rhyolite such as obsidian, pearlite, and pine sebite, or granite) have a redox potential of -20 to -240 mV in the raw state. However, the rock 54 excludes what dissolves in water. The rock container 16 is a cylinder having an inner diameter of 10 cm and a height of 80 cm, for example, and the rock 54 containing a large amount of silicon dioxide among the igneous rocks having a size of about 5 mm to 50 mm, for example, is reduced. Contains no amount.

When the water that has passed through the ion generator 14 is allowed to pass through the rock container 16, e ⁻ (minus electrons) is added to the water. As a result, chlorine (Cl) contained in tap water becomes chlorine ions due to negative electrons.
^{Cl + e - → Cl - ···} (4)
This Cl ⁻ and the Na ⁺ are in a stable state as ions. The stable state means that the ionic state is maintained for a long time without evaporating. The hydroxyl ion (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ) is also stable as an ion. By passing the water through the rock 54, hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) are further generated and the hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ) are also hydrogen ions (H H ⁺ ) is also generated.
H ₂ O + H ⁺ → H ₃ O ⁺ (2)
H ₃ O ⁺ + H ₂ O → H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ + 2H ⁺ (3)
In addition to the passage of water through the rock 54, the following reactions also occur.
OH ⁻ + H ⁺ → H ₂ O (5)
2H ⁺ + 2e ⁻ → 2H ₂ (6)
Further, when the water passes through the rock container 16, the redox potential of the water is changed from +340 mV to −20 to −240 mV due to the negative electrons of the rock 54. If hot water is used instead of water, the negative redox potential becomes more stable. Furthermore, the water that has passed through the rock 54 contains a large amount of dissolved oxygen and active hydrogen.

As shown in FIG. 1, water first passes through the ion exchange resin, then passes through tourmaline 46 (or a mixture of tourmaline 46 and metal 48), and then passes through the rock container 16. Things are special water (creative water). The creation water includes Na ⁺ , Cl ⁻ , H ⁺ , OH ⁻ , H _2, hydronium ion (H ₃ O ⁺ ), hydroxyl ion (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ), and active hydrogen. And a large amount of dissolved oxygen. The energy of this water has an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength of 4 to 14 microns which is 0.004 watt / cm ² and has a redox potential of −20 to −240 mV.

  As water used in producing the fuel gas production method according to the present invention, water was passed in the order of ion exchange resin 32, tourmaline 46 (or a mixture of tourmaline 46 and metal 48), and rock 54. Use fresh water. In FIG. 1, water is passed in the order of ion exchange resin 32, tourmaline 46 (or a mixture of tourmaline 46 and metal 48), and rock 54, but water is passed in this order, but water is passed through ion exchange resin 32, rock 54, tourmaline 46 (or The tourmaline 46 and the metal 48 may be mixed). That is, as shown in FIG. 4, water may be passed through the first soft water generator 10, the second soft water generator 12, the rock container 16, and the ion generator 14 in this order.

In FIG. 4, the water that has passed through the ion exchange resin 32 then passes through the rock 54. The rock 54 generates e ⁻ (minus electrons) in the water. As a result, chlorine contained in tap water becomes chlorine ions due to negative electrons.
^{Cl + e - → Cl - ···} (4)
This Cl ⁻ and Na ⁺ generated by the ion exchange resin 32 are in a stable state as ions. Even water that has passed through the ion exchange resin 32 may not contain Na ⁺ .
The water that has passed through the ion exchange resin 32 contains H ⁺ , OH ^−, and hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ), as shown in the above (1) and (2). When the water that has passed through the ion exchange resin 32 subsequently passes through the rock 54, the following reaction also occurs.
OH ⁻ + H ⁺ → H ₂ O (5)
H ₂ O + H ⁺ → H ₃ O ⁺ (2)
2H ⁺ + 2e ⁻ → 2H ₂ (6)
In this reaction, a larger amount of hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) than that generated by the ion exchange resin 32 is generated.
As described above, by passing through the rock 54 after the ion exchange resin 32, Na ⁺ and OH ⁻ which have been conventionally present in the water, and newly generated Cl ⁻ and hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ). Will exist. Further, the water passed through the rock 54 has a redox potential of -20 to -240 mV. If hot water is used instead of water, the negative redox potential is further stabilized. Furthermore, the water that has passed through the rock 54 contains a large amount of dissolved oxygen and active hydrogen.

The water that has passed through the rock 54 is then passed through the inside of the ion generator 14 containing the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48. This causes the following reaction.
H ₂ O → H ⁺ + OH ⁻ (1)
H ₂ O + H ⁺ → H ₃ O ⁺ (2)
This hydronium ion (H ₃ O ⁺ ) is generated in large quantities. A part of the hydronium ion (H ₃ O ⁺ ) becomes a hydroxyl ion (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ).
H ₃ O ⁺ + H ₂ O → H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ + 2H ⁺ (3)
As a result, hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ), hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ), OH ⁻ , and H ⁺ increase in water that has passed through the tourmaline 46 and the metal 48.

As shown in FIG. 4, when water is passed in the order of ion exchange resin 32, rock 54, and tourmaline 46 (or a mixture of tourmaline 46 and metal 48), Na ⁺ , Cl ⁻ , and OH ⁻ are passed. And hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ), hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ), H ⁺ , dissolved oxygen, and active hydrogen, and the same components as the created water created in FIG. Including. Furthermore, it has an electromagnetic wave of 4 to 14 microns having an energy of 0.004 watt / cm ² and an oxidation-reduction potential of −20 to −240 mV. As a result, the water created in FIG. 4 and the created water created in FIG. 1 have the same effect. The water generated by the apparatus of FIG. 4 is the same as the generated water generated in FIG. 1 and the water contained in the water as a result, so the water generated by the apparatus of FIG.

  Next, the liquid raw material used in the present invention will be described. As the liquid raw material, it is desirable to use petroleum-based fuel such as kerosene, but other than petroleum-based fuel (for example, liquefied natural gas or liquefied coal-based gas) may be used. Liquid raw materials include kerosene, light oil, a mixture of light oil and kerosene, heavy oil, a mixture of heavy oil and kerosene, gasoline, naphtha, ethanol, methanol, benzene, toluene, xylene, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), liquefied city gas ( A liquefied coal-based gas, a liquefied petroleum-based gas, a liquefied natural gas) or the like may be used.

  As vegetable oil used in the present invention, when using kerosene, gasoline or naphtha as a liquid raw material, by using mainly a castor oil mixed with at least one of rapeseed oil, sunflower oil or rice oil, Creation water and liquid raw material can be emulsified. When using other than kerosene, gasoline or naphtha as liquid raw materials (light oil, mixture of light oil and kerosene, heavy oil, mixture of heavy oil and kerosene, ethanol, methanol, liquefied petroleum gas, liquefied city gas), castor oil as vegetable oil By using, the created water and the liquid raw material can be emulsified. If fuel gas is generated from an emulsion using vegetable oil as an emulsifier, dioxins are not generated, and environmental pollution can be prevented.

  Next, a method for producing fuel gas according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the fuel gas production method of the present invention, first, water is first passed through an ion exchange resin, and then either one of tourmaline and rocks containing a large amount of silicon dioxide among igneous rocks is passed first and the other later. Special water (creation water), liquid raw materials such as kerosene, and vegetable oil are mixed to produce a liquid emulsion. Assuming that the total weight of the fresh water, the liquid raw material and the vegetable oil is 100%, the weight ratio of the special water is 99.4% or less, the weight ratio of the liquid raw material is 0.5% or more, and the vegetable oil The weight ratio is 0.1% or more, and the emulsion water of these weights, the liquid raw material, and the vegetable oil are mixed to produce an emulsion.

  The emulsion produced by mixing the creation water, the liquid raw material, and the vegetable oil is accommodated in the container 60. It should be noted that the creation water, the liquid raw material, and the vegetable oil may be separately put in the container 60 and mixed and stirred to produce an emulsion composed of the creation water, the liquid raw material, and the vegetable oil in the container 60. After an emulsion produced by mixing creation water, liquid raw material, and vegetable oil is put in the container 60, the upper opening of the container 60 is closed with a lid 62, and the inside of the container 60 is sealed. The lid 62 is provided with a nozzle 66 having a communication passage 64 formed therein for communication between the inside of the container and the outside of the container. An opening / closing valve 68 for opening and closing the communication passage 64 is provided in the middle of the nozzle 66. Yes. At the top of the container 60, a barometer 70 that measures the pressure inside the container 60 and a thermometer 72 that measures the temperature inside the container 60 are attached. The upper shape of the container 60 is preferably a conical shape or a pyramid shape such that the horizontal cross section gradually narrows toward the lid 62. A heating means 74 for heating the emulsion in the container 60 is provided below the bottom surface of the container 60. The heating means 74 is not limited to thermal power, and the arrangement position of the heating means 74 is not limited to the lower part of the bottom surface.

  The container 60 is filled with, for example, a liquid emulsion at a height of about ¼ to ３, the container 60 is covered with a lid 62, and the container 60 is hermetically sealed. Heat the emulsion inside. When the emulsion in the sealed container 60 is heated by the heating means 74, the emulsion is heated and boiled, and fuel gas (described later) is generated from various gases from the heated and boiled emulsion, and the pressure in the sealed container 60 is increased. The heating means 74 may be anything that produces a heating temperature to the extent that the emulsion in the sealed container 60 is boiled (e.g., that produces a heating temperature up to about 400 ° C.), and in particular, needs to produce a high temperature of about 1000 ° C. There is no. The pressure in the container 60 is increased by the fuel gas generated from the emulsion heated and boiled in the container 60. Since the maximum pressure in the container 60 due to the heated and boiled gas is regulated by each country, for example, when the pressure in the sealed container 60 exceeds about 50% of the specified pressure, the heating force by the heating means 74 is reduced or the heating is stopped. Then, the heating force by the heating means 74 is adjusted so that the pressure in the sealed container 60 does not reach the specified pressure.

By heating the emulsion in the sealed container 60 by the heating means 74, gas is generated from the emulsion. Creation water that constitutes most of the emulsion consists of hydrogen ions (H ⁺ ), hydrogen (H ₂ ), hydroxyl groups (OH ⁻ ), hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ), and hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O). ₂ ^-) and, and a dissolved oxygen and active hydrogen in large quantities. For this reason, the emulsion is heated and boiled in the sealed container 60, so that hydrogen ions (H ⁺ ), hydrogen (H ₂ ), hydronium ions (H ₃ O ⁺ ) and active hydrogen contained in the created water are used. A large amount of hydrogen gas is generated in the sealed container 60. A large amount of oxygen gas is generated in the sealed container 60 from hydroxyl groups (OH ⁻ ), hydroxyl ions (H ₃ O ₂ ⁻ ), and dissolved oxygen. Further, vaporized kerosene or the like is generated in the sealed container 60. That is, it is considered that the fuel gas generated by the present invention is composed of hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, vaporized kerosene and the like (which may be natural gas or the like). In addition, when liquid raw materials use liquefied petroleum gas or liquefied city gas (liquefied coal-based gas, liquefied petroleum-based gas, liquefied natural gas), a large amount of hydrogen gas may be generated from liquefied petroleum gas or liquefied city gas. It is clear from the experiment.

  When the opening / closing valve 68 is opened in a state where the pressure in the sealed container 60 is sufficiently higher than the normal pressure, high-pressure fuel gas (hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, vaporized kerosene, etc. in the sealed container 60 is mixed from the nozzle 66. Is sprayed toward the outside of the container 60. When the gas injected from the nozzle 66 to the outside is ignited, it becomes a powerful flame and burns. It can be seen that the fuel gas contains a large amount of hydrogen gas because it does not burn only with oxygen gas and combustion continues with the weight ratio of liquid raw materials such as kerosene being as low as about 1%, for example. . Further, the liquid raw material such as kerosene is gradually increased in weight ratio, for example, from 1% to 10% or 20%, so that the ignition state is improved and the flame is increased. Thus, it is considered that liquid raw materials such as kerosene are vaporized by heating and are effective in improving the ignitability of the fuel gas and increasing the combustion temperature. If the weight ratio of the liquid raw material such as kerosene is increased, the combustion temperature of the fuel gas increases. However, if the weight ratio of the liquid raw material such as kerosene becomes 10% or more, the flame becomes large and the combustion temperature increases. In order to further increase the combustion temperature, the weight ratio of the liquid raw material such as kerosene may be 10% or more. If the weight ratio of the liquid raw material such as kerosene is increased, the combustion temperature by the fuel gas can be gradually increased, but it is not necessary to increase the weight ratio of the liquid raw material such as kerosene to 30% or more from the viewpoint of economic efficiency. Conceivable.

Note that hydrogen peroxide (H ₂ O ₂ ) may be added to the emulsion contained in the sealed container 60. Hydrogen peroxide mixed in the emulsion is 0.1% or more with respect to 100% of the weight of the emulsion. A mixture of hydrogen peroxide and emulsion is placed in a sealed container 50, and the sealed container 60 in which the emulsion and hydrogen peroxide are mixed is heated by the heating means 74. By adding hydrogen peroxide into the sealed container 60 and heating with the heating means 74, not only oxygen gas is generated from the hydrogen peroxide itself, but also a large amount of oxygen gas is generated from the created water. That is, it is considered that the generation of a large amount of oxygen gas from the created water is induced by hydrogen peroxide. When hydrogen peroxide is added, the amount of oxygen gas generated increases. However, as the oxygen gas increases, the color of the flame changes from a reddish color to a blue color as compared with the case where hydrogen peroxide is not added. That is, when the proportion of oxygen gas contained in the fuel gas is small (when the proportion of hydrogen gas is large), the color of the burning flame is red, but when the proportion of oxygen gas is large, the flame color is blue. Become.

  In addition, the fact that a large amount of oxygen is generated by adding hydrogen peroxide to the fresh water will be explained based on the test results by Shinano Institute for Pollution Research. The address of Shinano pollution research institute is "1835-1 Kamata, Kitasaku-gun Tateshina-machi, Nagano", its phone number is "0267-56-2189", and its fax number is "0267-56-1843". is there. The subject and purpose of the test are “Subject: Decomposition Test of Hydrogen Peroxide Using Creation Water” and “Purpose: Examining Decomposition Ability of Creation Water etc. against Hydrogen Peroxide”. The outline of the test was first performed on the fresh water in the order of the following (1) to (5). (1) Put 10 ml of fresh water into a 50 ml disposable syringe. (2) Add 5 ml of 30% hydrogen peroxide to the syringe. (3) Vent the air inside the syringe and plug the outlet side so that the generated oxygen does not leak. (4) Place the outlet side up and leave it in a 35 ° C constant temperature bath. (5) The amount of oxygen generated in the syringe after 24, 48, 72, 96 hours is measured from the volume scale of the syringe.

  The amount of oxygen generated from the generation water is 0.0 ml after 0 hours, 2.0 ml after 24 hours, 7.2 ml after 48 hours, 14.8 ml after 72 hours, and 33.5 ml after 96 hours. Met. Next, when the same test as that for the fresh water is performed with tap water, the amount of oxygen generated from tap water is 0.0 ml after 0 hours, 0.0 ml after 24 hours, and 0.0 ml after 48 hours. After 72 hours, the amount was 0.6 ml, and after 96 hours, the amount was 1.2 ml. From this test result, it can be seen that the amount of generated oxygen is significantly higher in the case where hydrogen peroxide is mixed with fresh water than in the case where hydrogen peroxide is mixed with tap water. This test result is obtained by allowing the mixed material to stand in a thermostatic chamber. Here, as in the present invention, a mixture of the creation water and hydrogen peroxide is heated in the sealed container 60, so that the mixture of the creation water and hydrogen peroxide (from tap water and excess water) is heated. It can be seen that a large amount of oxygen is generated in a short time compared to a mixture with hydrogen oxide).

  In addition, when the temperature of the liquid in the sealed container 60 is 400 ° C. or less and the pressure in the container is 10 atm or less, in addition to hydrogen and oxygen, methane gas and ethane gas are also used in small amounts compared to the amount of oxygen generated. appear. These methane gas and ethane gas are used when the high-pressure fuel gas in the sealed container 60 (a mixture of hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, vaporized kerosene, etc.) is injected from the nozzle 66 toward the outside of the container 60. It promotes the combustion.

  When the fuel gas generated in the hermetic container 60 is burned from an emulsion composed of a fresh raw water, a liquid raw material such as kerosene, and vegetable oil, an odor may be generated by combustion of the gas obtained by vaporizing the liquid raw material such as kerosene. In order to eliminate this smell, in the present invention, tourmaline 76 is put in the sealed container 60. When the sealed container 60 containing the emulsion and tourmaline 76 is heated by the heating means 74, the plus and minus electrodes of the tourmaline 46 are dissolved into the liquid emulsion by heat and pressure, and the emulsion is constituted by plus and minus electricity. A large amount of active hydrogen is generated from the created water. The active hydrogen generated in a large amount decomposes the sulfur content from the liquid raw material such as kerosene, the fuel gas does not contain the sulfur content, and no odor is generated even if the fuel gas is burned. When the tourmaline 76 is added, at least one material 78 of alumina or silica may be mixed together. Sulfur can be decomposed with active hydrogen generated in large quantities by tourmaline 76, but by mixing alumina or silica with tourmaline 76 in tourmaline 76, sulfur can be more reliably removed from liquid raw materials such as kerosene contained in the emulsion. be able to. The material 78 made of at least one of alumina and silica promotes the desulfurization effect from the emulsion. As a result, the odor can be completely extinguished when the fuel gas generated in the sealed container 60 is burned.

  Here, although the tourmaline 46 may be a granular material obtained by finely pulverizing tourmaline stone, the weight ratio of tourmaline, ceramic, and aluminum oxide (including silver) is about 10:80:10. It may be a tourmaline mixture called a commercially available tourmaline pellet. The ceramic contained in the tourmaline pellet has a function of generating a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The weight ratio of tourmaline, ceramic and aluminum oxide is preferably about 10: 1 to 1:10. Beyond that range, there is too much material on one side, and the effects of both materials cannot be demonstrated simultaneously. The amount of tourmaline 76 or the mixture of tourmaline 76 and at least one material 78 of alumina or silica that is put into the sealed container 60 is, for example, at least enough to satisfy the bottom surface of the sealed container 60.

  In the method for producing fuel gas of the present invention, a special water (creative water) is produced from a liquid raw material such as kerosene and vegetable oil, and the emulsion is heated to produce a fuel gas containing hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. Is to be manufactured. Moreover, by producing the fuel gas with a large weight ratio of water (creation water), that is, a small weight ratio of the liquid raw material, a fuel gas containing hydrogen gas and oxygen gas can be produced at a low cost. Is.

Note that hydrogen peroxide (H ₂ O ₂ ) may be added to the emulsion contained in the sealed container 60. Hydrogen peroxide mixed in the emulsion is 0.1% or more with respect to 100% of the weight of the emulsion. A mixture of the hydrogen peroxide emulsion, placed in a sealed 6 within 0 container, heating the sealed container 60 were placed by mixing the emulsion with hydrogen peroxide with heating means 74. By adding hydrogen peroxide into the sealed container 60 and heating with the heating means 74, not only oxygen gas is generated from the hydrogen peroxide itself, but also a large amount of oxygen gas is generated from the created water. That is, it is considered that the generation of a large amount of oxygen gas from the created water is induced by hydrogen peroxide. When hydrogen peroxide is added, the amount of oxygen gas generated increases. However, as the oxygen gas increases, the color of the flame changes from a reddish color to a blue color as compared with the case where hydrogen peroxide is not added. That is, when the proportion of oxygen gas contained in the fuel gas is small (when the proportion of hydrogen gas is large), the color of the burning flame is red, but when the proportion of oxygen gas is large, the flame color is blue. Become.

When the fuel gas generated in the hermetic container 60 is burned from an emulsion composed of a fresh raw water, a liquid raw material such as kerosene, and vegetable oil, an odor may be generated by combustion of the gas obtained by vaporizing the liquid raw material such as kerosene. In order to eliminate this smell, in the present invention, tourmaline 76 is put in the sealed container 60. Configuration Heating the sealed container 60 containing the emulsion and tourmaline 76 with heating means 74, the positive and negative electrodes of the tourmaline 7 6 by heat and pressure melts the emulsion in the liquid state, an emulsion by positive and negative electric A large amount of active hydrogen is generated from the generated fresh water. The active hydrogen generated in a large amount decomposes the sulfur content from the liquid raw material such as kerosene, the fuel gas does not contain the sulfur content, and no odor is generated even if the fuel gas is burned. When the tourmaline 76 is added, at least one material 78 of alumina or silica may be mixed together.

As a result, the odor can be completely extinguished when the fuel gas generated in the sealed container 60 is burned.
