20110183222 | MULTIPURPOSE HYDROGEN GENERATOR SYSTEM - A hydrogen generator system includes an electrolyzer for executing a water electrolysis process and associated devices for operation thereof to produce hydrogen and oxygen, and functionally interconnected to each other: 1) a device for recovering heat generated by the electrolysis and cooling of the electrolyzer, 2) a device for storing the generated hydrogen, 3) a burner for generating heat, and 4) a fuel cell for producing electrical energy. The burner and the fuel cell are connected in parallel and suppliable with the hydrogen produced directly by the electrolyzer and/or with the hydrogen drawn from the storage device, as well as respective circuit and control and adjustment components. The entire hydrogen generator system is accommodated in a casing, which has externally a plurality of inlet connection fittings for the water and electrical power supply system for supplying the electrolyzer and outlet connection fittings for the various services and products supplied. | 07-28-2011 |
