Video: Technology turns water into fire

Water creates fire? What seemed impossible was a successful group of scientists. This achievement may be the most commonly used application in the future with advantages over conventional fire.

Specifically, water through the technological process forms fire, then the flame will be used and discharged to the water. Before being transformed, water (H ₂ O) will be separated into hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis. To make this work better, the researchers found a new diaphragm material, increasing electrolytic efficiency. "We have done a lot of experiments on catalysts, trying to reduce the amount of platinum (platinum) and replacing it with much cheaper materials. This will decrease," said Andrew Ellis, the team leader . cost for electrolysis system ".

The device to turn water into fire is named Safeflame (safe fire). To use Safeflame, users only need to pour normal water into the jar. After that, the water will be electrolyzed into hydrogen and oxygen, which are then used as materials to create a flame. Unlike other flames, this fire burns only to create steam, does not create toxic gases, thus minimizing the impact on human health.

Safaflame currently still has to experiment a lot to overcome defects and improve performance. But we can believe that in a few years this will be a popular technology in human life.
