Our
NEW
Hydrogen
Oxygen
Generating
Systems
increase the burning efficiency of your engine, and therefore
produce very low emissions, reducing carbon gases in our atmosphere,
including a huge reduction in the usual mix of exhaust gases.
The
HOGS will lower fuel consumption and increase power
from your engine by allowing your engine to burn all the fuel you
have paid for. It does this by converting distilled water to
Hydrogen and Oxygen, which is introduced to the air intake system.
Maintenance of the HOGS
is simple and cheap.
Pending the size of the engine
different sizes of HOGS will be used on installation.
Installation can be done within a few hours.
Qld Government HOGS Installation Certification pending - details to
be announced shortly.
Fuel Savings with a Hydrogen Oxygen Generation System
installed. The addition of hydrogen injection to a normal fuel
injected, spark ignition, petrol fuelled, engine
will not likely increase its efficiency unless it is operated
primarily under 'stressed combustion', e.g. not during the
'idling phase' of an engine. However the benefits of
hydrogen injection can be taken advantage of by manipulating the
operating parameters of the engine. A petrol
engine produces the greatest torque with a stoichio-metric air/fuel
mixture, but can be much more efficient when run with an ultra-lean
mixture, especially at cruise throttle settings for the following
reasons:
The ultra-lean mixture opens the throttle further and
reduces the vacuum in the engine manifold that causes the engine to
use up horsepower to suck the combustion air into the combustion
chamber. The ultra-lean mixture reduces the horsepower used in
sucking in the air. Running an ordinary engine with an ultra-lean
air/fuel mixture is the job of the Hydrogen Oxygen Generation System
(HOGS). Everything
possible must be done to prepare the mixture to combust.
The fuel
heater heats the petrol to the highest possible temperature
without causing vapour problems within the fuel injection system, so
that when the hot fuel is injected, more of it will vaporise. The
fuel vaporising system
vaporises more fuel that is brought to the engine through the
evaporative emissions control system. This combination vaporises as
much fuel as possible to prepare it for combustion (liquid fuel does
not combust until it is vaporised).
The hydrogen injection accelerates
ignition of the vaporised fuel at the moment the spark plug fires. This forces the ultra-lean air/fuel mixture to ignite
when normally this lean of a mixture would simply misfire.
To create
the desired ultra-lean air/fuel mixture in a fuel injected engine
the electronic control circuit of the HOGS does two
things:
It “cuts the stoichio-metric guard” by disconnecting
the oxygen sensor which is in place to prevent a stoichio-metric 
mixture (no excess oxygen or fuel) going out the
exhaust.
It also modifies the signal from the Mass
Air Flow or Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor going to the
ECU (engine control unit) or PCM (power control module) thereby
telling the engine computer that less air is present than there
really is. This causes the computer to 'demand' less fuel to be
injected into the engine and therefore guarantees a leaner mixture. The mixture is usually set at the leanest mixture that
enables a smooth power output.
This ultra-lean mixture also keeps
the combustion temperature down to a point where Nitrogen
Oxides emissions are avoided. The permanent engine treatment
component of the HOGS reduces friction and drag inside the engine,
which further increases the engine’s efficiency.
At idle and low cruise power settings
the benefits of a HOGS are minimal because there is
little fuel being combusted.
The Nature of Hydrogen
- Hydrogen is the simplest, lightest element in the universe.
It is made up of a one proton and one electron.
- Hydrogen being 14 lighter than air, when Hydrogen Fuel is
released into the atmosphere, it dissipates immediately upward,
making it very safe.
- Hydrogen is the most abundant element in
the universe, making up more than 90% of all matter. On Earth,
it is the third most abundant element in the Earth's surface.
- In its normal gaseous state, hydrogen is colourless,
odourless, tasteless, and it is non-toxic.

The Hydrogen Burning Process
Hydrogen burns readily in presence of oxygen, releasing
considerable energy as heat and producing only water as 'waste'.
When hydrogen burns in air (which is mostly nitrogen), some
oxides of nitrogen (NOx) can
be formed, but much fewer pollutants are formed than when normal
hydrocarbon fuels such as petrol and diesel fuel are burned.
Because no carbon is involved, using
hydrogen fuel does
not contribute to Global Warming.
Hydrogen Gas has a much higher flashpoint than petrol. The
self-ignition temperature of hydrogen is 550 degrees Celsius. Fuel
can ignite from 280 degrees onwards, pending the grade.
When ignited, hydrogen burns upward, and is quickly
consumed. Liquids and Vapours such as petrol fuel and diesel vapours remain a
threat for much longer.
Hydrogen is non-toxic. Hydrogen is a
naturally-occurring element in our atmosphere while
all petroleum fuels are poisonous to humans and animals.
Hydrogen combustion produces only water. When hydrogen is
burned in oxygen, only pure water H 20 is produced. In any case,
when a hydrogen engine burns, it actually cleans the surrounding
air, by completing combustion of the unburned hydrocarbons that
surround us. Compared with the toxic compounds (carbon monoxide,
nitrogen oxides, and hydrogen sulfide) produced by petroleum
fuels, the products of hydrogen burning are much safer.
Hydrogen makes an excellent fuel because it works well as an
energy carrier. By the way, it has been used in the Space Industry
for the last 60 years.
So what exactly is a supplemental HOGS?
Hydrogen Oxygen Generations Systems are known as
Supplemental Hydrogen generators. A supplemental hydrogen generator
is basically a tank that holds distilled water and an electrolyte,
such as potassium hydroxide.
The distilled water is charged to induce electrolysis, which separates the
hydrogen and oxygen molecules. The hydrogen and oxygen that has been
released is then collected and forced into the engine through the
air intake system. The added oxygen increases the octane level of
the fuel. Once the supplemental hydrogen is added to the fuel
mixture of the engine, it helps increase the flame spread during the
combustion process, and thus makes the burning process faster and
cleaner.
This way more of the fuel is burned, more power generated, and
less waste is produced after the Intake-Combustion-Ignite cycle has
take place.
