Abstract: Hydrogen has the ability to burn quite fast so it was a good idea to use it as a fuel to generate electricity and we can get a handle on hydrogen from water analysis electrically. Here in Sudan we have the river Nile so it’s easy to get water hence, gaining hydrogenfrom water and using it as a fuel is more inexpensive instead of using petroleum products . In addition, hydroxyl gas improves the quality of the fuel burning inside the engine, increases the engine power, cleans old carbon deposits off the inside of an old engine, and reduces the unwanted exhaust emissions. What we don’t realize is that the ordinary fuel used in the engine is a “hydrocarbon” which is a compound of hydrogen and carbon and that fuel actually splits up to form hydrogen, which the engine burns. Actually, it is the carbon part of the hydrocarbon fuel which is the problem, producing Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, and physical carbon deposits inside the engine. The whole system consists of electrolysers where the water gets analyzed and its connected to a generator. The gas is meant to be in combustion chamber of the generator to get burned andto move the shaft to start generation of electricity . The electrolyser consists of 8 cells each cell has a cathode and ananode rod which is made of aluminum or steel . They supply by direct current low voltage high current it should be at least 2 voltage per cell. The electrolyte is a mix of water and either NAOH or KOH to allow more current to flow through the liquid and they 25% to 30% of water weight. We figured that each liter of water produces about 1,750 liters of hydroxy gas. The study intends to promote the possibility of using hydrogen in electric power. The motivation for using hydrogen for electricity generation is derived from the fact that the electric power sector is the greatest contributor to green house emissions. This problem of emissions must be addressed immediately. Hydrogen server the purpose as a source of clean energy and it’s a friend of the environment.
