Abstract

Un système générateur d'hydrogène comprend un bac d'élément qui délimite une chambre intérieure, et une solution électrolytique qui se trouve dans ladite chambre. Un ensemble de plaques électrodes est placé dans cette chambre intérieure, et il est plongé au moins en partie dans la solution électrolytique. Ledit ensemble comprend une plaque cathode, une plaque anode qui est séparée de cette plaque cathode et placée à distance d'elle, et un bloc d'alimentation qui est en communication électrique avec ledit ensemble de plaques électrodes.
