generating equipment is that iof corrosion. Corrision of uncoatedmetal parts increases" rapidly with pressuresand temperatures, and in modern steam" generating equipment; for example, inthe range, of 1100 to 1500 F, corrosion is an increasing problem. -In this'andeven higher tempera ture ranges, it has become -the practice to use vari ous materials and metals which will not only Withstand the temperatures but also be relatively uncorrodible or' 3 suitably protected. One of the better metals which has been considered for high temperature'steam atmospheres INTRODUCING quires separate tanks, separate materials, additional hanf dling means and, therefore, the economic. factonalso becomes-increasingly important..

. Referring now to FIG., 1, there :is schematically shown. an electrolysis system 10 as applied to a steam boiler.
Steam-boiler 11 is shown toincludea bo-ilerwall 12, and water 13 being converted to steam 14. In order to liberatehydrogen by the electrolytic decomposition of water.
in accordance with the teachings of-this invention, a

The use of molybdenum,- howeveryin hightempei ature steam generating equipment is limited be}- 5 causeof the formation. of "molybdenum trioxide, due to the exposure of molybdenum, to; oxygen; inthe system, avhich is volatile at high-temperatures wand, therefore,

Cathode 15 is electrically connected by means of a suitable connector 16 to" a battery 17 or other source of D.C. current with connector 16 being electrically insulated fromboiler 12'by means of an insulator 19. An insolublea-node 20,'for example,of platinum, carbon etc. is positioned within a chamber Ziand connected to battery 1!! 'by electrical connector 22.

thisinvention depends o-nitheiwell 7 known principle of the electrolytic cell. 7 It is generally known that an} electrical current can be used. 'toproduce hydrogen and oxygen from wa-ter'. by electrolysis; In an '1 electrolytic cell, electrical energy from arr-outside source 3 serves to produce the chemical changes involved, a small part being wasted as heat."

In this manner the level of water 13 in the boiler maintains a corresponding level in chamber 21 and. aboiler watercircuit The operation of attracted b y'the negative plate and-repelled by *theiposi-v tive' plate andithe negative ions will be, attracted {by the positivefland repelledjby the negative plate. Theresult will again be z rdrifting of ionsin both directions through gen is formed'or liberatedat the cathodeoirygen .is beingi continually given of f at the anode; gcThe'invention, there-g Ifore, asgdepictedin 1316, 1 is the "equivalent of an elec; V olytid cell; "While? the'jwater inzia steam power-plant .is'generally; maintaineda't a high purity level,r.-whe1re.the

volatile at temperatures of 1000 F. and above and thus is a deteriorating feature. Where the supply of oxygen is diminished, M forms on molybdenum and acts as a protective coating. The principle of this invention, therefore, need not be applied to produce hydrogen in sufficient quantities to act as a reducing atmosphere but only to supply a sufficient or predetermined quantity of hydrogen to a normally oxidizing atmosphere to form the protective coating M00 on molybdenum instead of M00 which is highly volatile and deteriorating.
The anode and cathode are not positioned together within the boiler 11 since the decomposition of water will release oxygen into the boiler and minimize the effect to be obtained by the liberation of hydrogen. The provision of the boiler water circuit thereby renders this invention particularly adaptable to enclosed steam power systems, where, due to the fact that oxygen is also liberated, decomposition of boiler water is not contemplated as a means of producing hydrogen. While in the electrolytic cell, oxygen is continually released from the anode, a suitable pressure relief valve 25 is positioned adjacent chamber 21 to be controlled by means well known in the art to maintain the pressure within the system at the desired level. and to release oxygen as it is being formed. Hydrogen liberated at the cathode can enter the steam while oxygen liberated anode can be withdrawn and recovered as a useful by-product.
Where other systems of introducing hydrogen in a steam boiler are employed, the embodiment of this invention may be utilized as a make-up supply or an auxiliary to other and different systems. The electrolytic decomposition of water is more particularly applicable as a make-up means for supplying hydrogen where hydrogen is supplied from other sources and where the quantity desired is high. This system is also applicable to other power generating equipment, for example, nuclear reactors employing the boiling water principle, and the various sizes and power requirements of the cell may be varied to suit particular needs.
It can thus be seen that the objects of my invention are obtained by the use of the electrolysis method to decompose boiler water to form hydrogen in steam power generating equpiment and that such a, method may be used in addition to other present methods. The production of hydrogen limits the formation of volatile M00 on molybdenum. I
While the presentinvention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment, it will be understood'that numerous modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without actually departing from this invention. Therefore, I aim in the appended claims to cover all such equivalent variations as comes within the true spirit and scope of the foregoing disclosure.
