Basics

  • The splitting (lysis) of molecules using electricity
  • Can also refer to Electroplating ?

Main Electolysis Feedstocks

Water

  • Produces Hydrogen and Oxygen
  • Often an alkaline powder is added to increase conductivity over pure water
  • There is a PILE of projects/build documentation on these devices, many of which are for Oxyhydrogen Pseudoscience related use cases, BUT the devices themselves may still be of use/worth investigating

Brine

Aluminium Oxide

  • Modern refining method (was more complex chemical wise, need to dig)
