Hello and welcome to Co-innovations.com

Right now is an important time in our history where social, financial and environmental forces are converging, creating challenges in magnitudes never seen before.Tackling this requires substantial change in the way we think and act when it comes to intellectual property.Co-innovations is at the forefront of this change by conducting our business in an open, transparent, responsible and accountable manner.

This is further realised by making all our develops available to you through Open Sourcing Licensing, which protects your rights to Use, Modify, Reproduce and Distribute this important environmental technology: more…>

 The community is leading the way!For over three years we have been working as part of a community to develop hydrogen fuel technologies for the common good using open source as the vehicle.This ensures broader community access by entrusting the public with the know-how and design information.

Although this is a noble cause it breaks many of the traditional commercialisation rules and relies heavily on the support from the community at large: more…>

It is an evolution in the sense that it is a technology that has been known for over 100 years, but only with the development of modern engineering and materials has the technology become practically viable.

As a commercial revolution it is made available to you under Open Source Licensing, reducing cost and improving value across the entire supply chain. Through the use of Open Source Licensing, commercial licensing fees are considerably reduced, allowing greater opportunity with reduced risk levels.

Technology in Brief:

The HOH Gas Generator produces Hydrogen - Oxygen - Hydrogen (HOH) gas on-demand and at the point  use, using only water. As water provides the storage medium for the Hydrogen and Oxygen gas, only small volumes of water storage is required. Water as the storage medium produces 2000 times its volume in gas, (1 litre of water produces, 2000 litres of gas). The systems are designed to produce from 60  to 900 litres per hour (LPH), and can be “daisy chained” to multiply these volumes, which it only limited by the available power sources.

Each system can safety draw up to 30 AMPS and operate in increments or 12VDC up to 120VDC. The systems can be connected in “Sereis” to operate at 24VDC (120LPH) or 240VDC (1800LPH), doubling the gas volumes.

The systems are highly efficient, producing 1 litre of gas at 180Watts per minute.

The HOH Gas Generator product development has been underway for over 4 years now and is in the final stages of the Indsutrial Design Phase.

The system has been designed with flexibility in mind allowing it to scale in gas production rates to meet the needs of many applications.

  • Petrol and Diesel Fuel Suppliementations (Passenger Vehicles to Heavy Industrial)
  • Welding, smelting and waste treatment applications
  • Heating and cooling applications.

As the technology has now begun to mature, there are considerable resources available under “Open Source License” to the public within the HOH Collaboration Portal , these include:

  • Details CAD Drawings
  • 3D Production Designs
  • Bill and Materials
  • Electronic Circuits and Controls
  • System Firmware
  • System Schematics
  • Installation Layouts for Prime Movers

HOH Gas Generation - Industrial Design

Description:

The HOH Gas Generation System is in its third major phase, having moved through Research and Experimental trials.

The system here reflects a comprehensive understanding of the design and production aspects within an Integrated Gas Generation System.

Although the system is currently being designed for automotive use, many other application opportunities exist, which will form new search projects in the future.

This scope has taken into account a flexible system design, with scalability (large and small), mounting flexibility options and ease of user interface.
