Abstract

Systems for the production of hydrogen and/or oxygen are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a system can include a first chamber, a microwave source configured to radiate microwave energy into at least the first chamber, a second chamber in communication with the first chamber, and an ultraviolet light source. The second chamber includes an outlet and a waveguide, and the ultraviolet light source resides within the waveguide of the second chamber. The first chamber includes an inlet that allows an input feed to enter the first chamber, the input feed including water. The ultraviolet light source is configured to emit ultraviolet light to at least partially breakdown the water into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas as the water flows through the second chamber. Methods for the production of hydrogen and/or oxygen are also provided.
