SOMETHING TO PONDER
SOMETHING TO PONDERDoes one contribute to the solar industry.... create massive plotsof lands into unsightly solar farms ?
Let's ask the question - " What happens when magnesium reacts with salt water ? "
On this side, the water reacts with the magnesium and creates hydrogen ions (protons) and magnesium hydroxide and generates two free electrons
1 - Hydrogen is created
2 - Electrons are released
Ahhh...... two forms of energy are created - right ?
What would the end result be if 1 tonne of Mg was used ?
How many Kilos of Hydrogen and KWh of electrons would be created ?
Most know about hydrogen but... let's now focus on the electrons.
This is the same kind of electrons that are mined from photons - all electrons convert to
same kind of energy as, solar.
The next question begs -
Just how many electrons could be squeezed out of 1 kg of Mg ?
I envision one making a rather large scale battery inwhich to react the magnesium with salt water.
Anode + Cathode made of, Magnesium. Small current to facilitate the salt water reaction with Mg.
Similar to that of a silo - VAT.
With long anodes and cathodes.
Would nano scale metal particles increase the rateof reaction ?
Most likely.
How many particle of Mg could be amassed from 1 kg of Magnesium ?
Don't know... but such is a great question.
Why a great question ?
Simply put...
each particle would create ( x factor hydrogen ) and ( x factor electrons x 2 )
Would make a great comparable with soalr vs this style of - energy creation.
Most likely would fal lunder the category of - REACTOR.
Now... just how much hydrogen could be created ?
Other articles referenced the amount of hydrogen is based on the water molecule itself.
The metal particle reaction x water molecule reaction.
Such might translate into - 1 to 1 ratio.
As for the electrons.... if 2 electrons are freed per each reaction of paetricle. could this be calculated in a formula ? Most certainly.
How wouldit fair with solar ?
Solar, has a low rate of photon absorbtion in solar panels.
Anywhere from, 10% - 20% and 20% being quite exceptional.
That's just the absorbtion, what the industry FAILS TO ADDRESS IS THE excess loss of electrons in which are lost during absorbtion, hard ot retain the electron - thus solar can be rather low on the scale of, efficiency.
Now... if one had the opportunity to create a controlled environment and know for certain that each particle of Mg didreact with salt water - wouldit fair better tha nsolar for egfficiency ?
I would say most certainly, based on efficiency - each particle reacting with salt water.
What would be needed besides nano Mg particles, battery style vat and simple salt water ?
One would still need a furnace in which to reacpture the nano particles and remelt to reuse and repeat process. And a containment system for the hydrogen created.
Would this not be more exciting than making a component for naother who profits al lthe more on a fully finished solar panel ?
One format makes you a slave to the system,
while the other makes you a creator of energy.
Something to Ponder.
Cheers...
