The HHO gas unit was designed for electricity generation. The components were as follows: Glass cell I, Glass cell II(Gel Electrolyte Cell), Fuel cell Design I, Microbial fuel cell design I (Laboratory Scale), Microbial fuel cell design II, (Sediment microbial fuel cell design with salt bridge), Fuel cell design II (broken cell), Fuel cell using waste water as fuel (Design I), Waste water fuel cell design II, Fuel cell design III (Plate type I), Fuel cell design IV (Plate type II), Fuel cell design V (Using copper and graphite Electrodes), Fuel cell design VI-the H 2 Hydrogen Generator, Fuel cell design VII-The HHO Generator. All components were supported on an iron table. A load carrying variable capacity upto 650watts was used to test the apparatus. The generator was run on petrol to maintain the stability. After the generator stabilization, started the HHO cell filled with electrolyte. The different electrolytes used were the potassium hydroxide 1M, potassium chloride 1M, sodium hydroxide 1M and sodium chloride 1M. The performances of single cell and double cells setups with the use of different electrolytes were studied. The efficiency of the system was determined in terms of fuel saving. The single cell saves fuel upto 35% whereas the double cell setup gave the remarkable saving of 40% to 45%. The waste product of this combustion process is generation of water. A less mediator plant microbial fuel cell was designed for comparative analysis, power density of two different electrodes; Nickel and Graphite was tested against different local salt marsh grass species Sporobolas arabicus and Cynodon dactylon. Both electrodes generated the power density of 23 mW/m2 and 10.7 mW/m2 respectively without using feed solution. In other experiments using feed solution, the power output was also recorded during the period of two months. The maximum power density was recorded as 120 mW/m2 and 58mW/m2 respectively from S.arabicus and C. dactylon species. Graphite proved best electrode material as compared to Nickel for production of electricity.
