Abstract:
A deep water hydrogen generation system comprisinga deep water hydrogen generator comprising a transfer chamber for being submerged underwater at great depths and having a water inlet for water to be electrolyzed to enter said transfer chamber, an electrolysis unit for electrolyzing the water in said transfer chamber to generate compressed hydrogen gas in said transfer chamber, a transport member within said transfer chamber defining a transport channel for the compressed hydrogen gas, said transport member having a hydrogen gas inlet for directing the compressed hydrogen gas into said transport channel and having a hydrogen gas outlet for removal of the compressed hydrogen gas from said transfer chamber, and a flotation member within said transfer chamber movable in response to the level of the water in said transfer chamber to open and close said water inlet and said hydrogen gas inlet; and a source of electrical power coupled with said hydrogen generator for supplying electricity to electrolyze the water.
