Bystander, I do understand that I won't get more energy than I put in any circumstances as that would break law of conservation of energy but my aim is not that, my aim is to create products which are in a form that can be utilized by humans. There are so many forms of energy which we are not...
No no please don't be sorry. You are correct and I am fine with your advice. In fact this is really important and I completely understand this. I'll have to make the energy calculations surely to see whether if I get a net positive energy output. I will do the calculations of enthalpy, entropy ...
Mfb, yes you seem to be right a very large concentration of CO2 and H20 could actually hinder the rate of production of methane even though they are the ingrediants to produce methane in the first place.
So, here what I think, is to devise a reaction chamber wherein appropriate amount of CO2...
Borek thanks for the suggestion. I will do that to check for the techniques which are available and if you have any knowledge about any such good book which will shed some light in this matter, please share it . It would prove to be very useful for me. Thank you everyone for your contribution...
Yes, you mentioned a really important parameter here which I left. I understand that here it is very much important to find the value of equilibrium constant (K) for both the forward as well as reverse reactions before actually conducting the "Reverse Combustion" reaction in the reaction...
Moreover, upon googling I found that some starups like "Liquid Light" are already working on this technology. However, their main energy source is sunlight. My source of energy to drive this reverse combustion endothermic reaction is different though.
To find more about "sunshine to petrol...
This site is really helpful and I really wish that I can get in touch with the creator of above mentioned thread directly. They were last seen somewhere in june 2016 and tge above thread was created some 10 years back.
Hello members,
A good news... I found a similar thread in which the original creator was working on a similar project like mine. Below is the link of that thread.Here my problem is also very much identical. My concern was about the spontaneous combustion reaction which would transform all...
Hi, thank you very much for your contribution. I read the link which you mentioned. I really got to learn about the new things in the link. But, the information in the link is primarily focussed on production and uses of copper(II) oxide . Is it that, this chemical bears the potential of making...
Or can I use something which can remove only oxygen/methane from the mixture as soon as they are generated like some sort of a "permeable membrane" which would allow only a characteristic gas to pass from the mixture, out into the atmosphere, to inhibit the spontaneous combustion process?? But...
Well, for that purpose I will use another closed container kept at a distance from the original container. Both the containers will be connected by an insulted pipe and a kind of automatic operating valve. So, let's say the original space where this reverse combustion reaction takes place has...
The problem here is that combustion of methane is highly spontaneous reaction. So, any suggestions to decrease the spontaneity of this combustion reaction, so that the hard earned products (CH4 and O2) after using a lot of energy don't get converted back to CO2 and H20 directly producing heat...
Hello,
First of all, I would like to thank you for responding swiftly. Borek, cooling the mixture very quickly, even more quicker than the reverse reaction (combustion) in CO2 + 2H2O + energy = CH4 + 2O2 seems to be a difficiult thing. However, I really liked the second point which was to...
Hello members,
I wish to produce and "store" "Methane" gas. I wish to accomplish this task by conducting out a reaction between carbon-dioxide an water. I have my own source of energy and I completely understand that the reaction is endothermic.
The reaction is: CO2 + 2H2O + energy = CH4 + 2O2...
