Deep well geothermal hydrogen generator

Abstract

A deep well geothermal hydrogen generator for efficiently producing hydrogen gas with geothermal energy. The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator includes an electrolyzer positioned within a deep well, and a generator fluidly connected to the deep well and electrically connected to the electrolyzer for providing electrical energy to the electrolyzer. Water is provided to the upper portion of the deep well and passes through the generator thereby producing electricity. The water continues downwardly to the lower portion of the deep well at an increased pressure where the electrolyzer gasifies the water into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. The hydrogen and oxygen are pressurized thereby forcing the same upwardly from the lower portion of the deep well.

1 . A deep well geothermal hydrogen generator, comprising: 
 an electrolyzer positioned within a deep well at a depth of at least 500 feet; and    at least one generator having an input port and an output port, wherein said output port is fluidly connected to said deep well and electrically connected to said electrolyzer for providing electrical energy to said electrolyzer.    
     
     
         2 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 1 , including a first pipe fluidly connected to said electrolyzer for transporting oxygen gas from said electrolyzer.  
     
     
         3 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 2 , including a first lower valve within said first pipe for controlling a first gas pressure between said first lower valve and said electrolyzer.  
     
     
         4 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 3 , including a first upper valve within said first pipe for controlling a second gas pressure between said first lower valve and said first upper valve.  
     
     
         5 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 1 , including a second pipe fluidly connected to said electrolyzer for transporting hydrogen gas from said electrolyzer.  
     
     
         6 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 5 , including a second lower valve within said second pipe for controlling a first gas pressure between said second lower valve and said electrolyzer.  
     
     
         7 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 6 , including a second upper valve within said second pipe for controlling a second gas pressure between said second lower valve and said second upper valve.  
     
     
         8 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 1 , wherein a flow of water is provided to an upper portion of said deep well and wherein said flow of water passes into said input port of said generator thereby producing electricity.  
     
     
         9 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 8 , wherein said generator is positioned within an upper portion or middle portion of said deep well.  
     
     
         10 . The deep well geothermal hydrogen generator of  claim 8 , wherein said generator is positioned exteriorly of said deep well.
