    Aaron,
    If you wrote that pure nitrogen isn't needed you know also why .. explain also to peoples (I know that) .. Regards

    P.S. Maybe isn't needed also electricity

    nh3 in exhaust production

    Tim, trying to force NH3 manufacturing process to debunk nitrogen theory is weak argument, anyone taking the time to read the literature will see it immediately. This is where you should look into context.
    That's right! NH3 production in EXHAUST at EXHAUST TEMP AND PRESSURES.
    Honda isn't the only one doing that. Tim won't acknowledge this though.

For it is clear that if oxygen is present in the system the process will not work correctly or if at all or why bother with the membranes to separate the oxygen out and away from the reaction?

    You post this as proof but I don't see anything that supports your theory in the sites you just posted. For in all cases the oxygen must be removed from the reaction and pure nitrogen has to be used, and in some pure hydrogen too.

    Now I am not the only one that is going to really read those and when they do they will also see what I did in that oxygen has to be removed from the reaction. But in your NH3 on demand theory it is immediately burned with oxygen as fuel and you have said nothing about separating the gases from the electrolyzer or the incoming air supply to get at the pure elements as all of the sites you just posted did to create NH3 on demand. Then the temperatures all had to be between 400-800 degrees C and the pressures range from 10 ATM to 300 ATM. Again that doesn't in the slightest support you theory and or claims.

    Thanks for the sites for it shows the truth and now all will be able to read and see for themselves just as I have done.

    Tim
    The spin isn't appreciated.

    First of all, I never said these were
    the processes used for nh3 on demand for water fueled engines. I posted
    these as proof that nh3 CAN be created out of air, water and electricity
    and are NOT the same as the haber bosch process. I have posted
    at least once, probably twice and possibly three times in this thread
    that these references do NOT spell out the nh3 on demand for water fuel
    engines explained in this thread.

    You refuse to acknowledge that
    copper and other possible materials that WERE discussed in this thread
    that create oxides when oxygen contacts it increasing the % of nitrogen.
    Of course you will ignore this little paragraph, pretend I never said this,
    and pretend that none of these points were ever mentioned in this thread.

    IF above 78% nitrogen is desired, it can be accomplished in the nh3
    on demand process. Yes, membranes are possible, there hasn't been
    mention of that publicly, but different metals have been mentioned and
    you claim to have actually read this thread? I think there are other
    subjects that you would more wisely spend your time on - this isn't for
    everyone.

    Pure nitrogen is NOT necessary. It only allows for higher amounts of NH3
    production if it is pure. If it is not pure and there is oxygen, then there is
    simply less NH3 produced.

    3Fe + 4H2O = FeO4 +4H2

    Inside the engine combustion chamber the iron walls of the engine block gets hot. The reaction of the water mist as it hits the hot iron walls has not been accounted for. I wonder it there is something similar with NH3? Just food for thought.

    Best regards, Mike R.
    Hi Mike,

    Iron oxide is a common catalyst for ammonia production.

    The main point in those old references was not to show the optimum
    way of producing nh3 but simply to show that nh3 absolutely can be
    produced with nothing more than air, water and electricity and for
    those that are cynical about this to pretend this is about
    something else is ridiculous.

    space for three electrons

Now when you break those guys apart, you still have 14 electrons; seven in each atom with five in the outer valence shell. Now the atomic nitrogen atoms very much want their outer valence shells to be full, and they each have space for three electrons.

    Those electrons can come from just about anywhere: A passing electron, or another atom looking to do the electron swapping thing like an atom of hydrogen. If the outer valence shells of the atomic nitrogen fill up with free electrons (what some might call a "natural electron extraction circuit") you end up with an atomic nitrogen ion with a 3e- charge. If the outer valence shells find hydrogen atoms, then covalent bonds are formed and you have a molecule of ammonia. Other combinations are of course possible, depending on energy levels among other things. But that's the basics as far as I understand them.
    Hi Shamus,

    Getting nitrogen into a state where there is space for three electrons in the
    presence of electrolytic hydrogen will form NH3
    as an absolute SCIENTIFIC
    FACT that has been known for 203 years.

    When I kept mentioning in this thread the thing that many of the Meyer
    purists keep regurgitating over and over about ionization is they always
    talk about stripping electrons from oxygen but they are completely
    silent of the fact that nitrogen is being ionized as well. This is why I
    mentioned at least twice that it is ridiculous to think that nitrogen is
    sneaking through an ionizer in a Ninja like way totally undetected and
    unaffected.

    This is what the cynical misinformation specialists don't want
    you or anyone else to understand and why they continue to ignore basic
    scientific facts. This is why they press the issue of nitrogen just "getting
    in the way" because they don't want you to see what in my opinion, has
    been self evident for quite a while in this thread. So in the Meyer process,
    this is happening anyway but Meyer doesn't spell it out. He directs your
    attention only to oxygen. His claims are covered in the patent, while
    everyone remains ignorant of what he was doing. Very clever. Almost
    everyone has been fooled that is.

    My first clue was the moment I saw Alex's air processor diagram with the
    multi stage screens. He may see the process different but the point is,
    the moment I saw that, it was very clear in my mind that the nitrogen had
    to become stripped of at least three electrons so that it can bind to three
    hydrogen atoms.
    Alex's diagram only had two screens, but it was enough
    to show a concept and he called it a gift. Only the blind laughed at
    that.

    Perhaps he does not agree with
    my perspective here, but my perspective is consistent with 203 year old
    science and science that is about 100 years old. That diagram has been
    posted for months by the way. A lot longer than that in the original thread
    he posted it in until I brought it into this thread.

    When that ionized nitrogen that has SPACE FOR THREE ELECTRONS -
    "electron stripped NITROGEN" - encounters electrolytic hydrogen, NH3 will
    form - and can form at low temperatures and low pressures. The haber
    bosch process needs such high temp and pressure for the heat ionization
    or "thermionic emission" in my opinion for the right condition to get the
    hydrogen and nitrogen to bond.

    But if the nitrogen is already ionized enough before it every encounters
    the electrolytic hydrogen,
    that extreme high heat and pressure is completely unnecessary. Heat is
    still needed for this whole process, but nothing like industrial ammonia
    production.

    The nitrogen is 78 percent, oxygen is 21 percent. The nitrogen is not
    simply "getting in the way" as some individuals want to claim,
    that nitrogen is an electron vacuum cleaner and has the ability to
    electrically interfere with the recombination of hydrogen and oxygen,
    which reduces the ability for h2o to form.

    This is one general principle that is involved with this process without
    revealing anyone's specific way of doing it.

    I'm open to correction on the above only by Mike, Alex and a few others.
    The cynics are not welcome to debate me on something that they have
    completely refused to even consider so any comments from them are not
    considered honest communication as far as I'm concerned. I'm open to
    correction and discussion by anyone else in this thread that has been
    honest enough to have some real conversation and has been open
    enough to consider other things.

    Anyway Shamus,



    There are other parts of the process. This concept is only one.
    But knowing this CONCEPT - anyone should be able to figure
    out how they want to ionize their nitrogen without needing any
    schematic from Alex, Mike or anyone else, in my opinion.

    Many other parts have been discussed in detail in this thread
    already. I think everyone needs to read the two Langmuir articles
    on the Lateral Science website, again to clearly see a couple
    other significant parts that again, those that are cynical about
    this process are unfamiliar with.

    Read this and imprint it in your memory:
    pure element is not required!
    extreme heat is not required!
    extreme pressure is not required!

    And the last reference I post even support the idea that we can go all crazy and dissociate all the nitrogen and all the oxygen in the ambient air and still can burn the NH3, in fact, better.

    I don't know if this has been posted before:
    Flammability Limits, Ignition Energy and Flame Speeds in H2-CH4-NH3-N2O-O2-N2 Mixtures (2000)

    The goals of this study are to experimentally characterize the combustion behavior of hydrogen, methane and ammonia with nitrous oxide or air.

    However, there are some peculiar aspects to these fuel-oxidizer combinations, particularly with mixtures containing nitrous oxide. N2O decomposes slowly at low temperatures (Arrhenius activation energy of ~251 kJ/mol [15]) but is extremely exothermic. N2O can behave as an explosive if the ignition stimulus is large enough and there are sufficient H atoms present to catalyze the decomposition. However, for very low temperature flames, the N2O does not appear to react at all [15, 16]. Mixtures of ammonia and air burn very slowly and in many situations are considered to be non flammable, but mixtures of NH3 and N2O appear to react much more rapidly. The reaction mechanism of NH3 and N2O is particularly uncertain. Hydrogen has a very large flammability range and unusually high flame speeds
    I think this tell that NH3+N2O can burn even better than NH3+Air. Lack of oxygen theory debunked...

    And more supporting reason for why we have to ionize the air.

    I looked through about 75% of the book that Schpankme posted
    last night - very simple straight forward explanations - even nh3 reference
    from just nitrogen + hydrogen + silent electric discharge

    page 26 - "With Nitrogen* Donkin has shown that when a

    However, this reaction could in no way be regarded as

    Yes, not sufficient for commercial production - however,
    super ionized nitrogen is NOT accounted for amongst a few

    Invalid logic, no one start with hydrogen. we all start with water. Funny that if I replace the word hydrogen with water, it will look more like what sceptic say:
    "As the amount of water is limiting and changing it into something else doesn't do a whole lot of good."

    And there already people run engine partially with water. Changing water to something else can do a good thing.

    Originally posted by chasson321 View Post

    You will get heavier molecule:
    CHEMTUTOR MOLS, PERCENTS, AND STOICHIOMETRY
    The real way we measure amounts is by weight (actually, mass), so 28 grams (14 g/mol times two atoms of nitrogen per molecule) of nitrogen and 6 grams of hydrogen (1 g/mol times two atoms of hydrogen per molecule times three mols) make 34 grams of ammonia.
    6 grams is smaller than 34 grams.

    Meyer mention gas retarding processes. I think the only viable solution to make hydrogen burn slower is by making them heavier. Heavier = slower to burn.

    Nascent Hydrogen. The doctrine of the nascent state has been developed, for the most part, in terms of hydrogen. Davy noticed in 1807 that electrolytic hydrogen will combine with nitrogen in the presence of water, while ordinary hydrogen will not.The Nascent State, J. H. Reedy and E. D. Biggers, J. Chem.

    Below are several excerpts from a paper showing the synthesis of ammoniaThe following is an account of experiments on the rate of production of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen as a function of the energy of thermions used to activate molecules and atoms.

    Heidemann described the production of ammonia even at the lowest voltages, but subsequent work by Andersen and Storch and Olson did not confirm this. They detected no combination until the molecular ionization potential of N2 (circa 17 V) was reached, after which the reaction rate increased abruptly every 4-7 V. The mechanism proposed was that H2+ and N2+ appearing at 16 V and 17V respectively gave H and N atoms on collision, and that later increased combination was due to the activation of H by 4 V electrons N2 + 2N, the nitrogen atoms then combining with H2 or H produced by the reaction N2 + H2 2N + 2H; white at 23 V the voltage at which N+ begins to appear, NH3+ is obtained in the same way.

    As regards dissociation at the filament, Langmuir has shown that hydrogen molecules are dissociated by tungsten at temperatures above about 1,300.

    These results demonstrate conclusively that combination to form ammonia takes place between H atoms and N2 molecules both in the presence of the nickel and platinum anodes and in the presence of 13 V electrons.
