Really nice. The man should look toward commercialising his process and getting interested people who can build actual combustion engines with his gases, or take the purification for hydrogen a step further.

Very interesting stuff indeed!

Good idea, all those beer parlour urines will not be wasting again and will be a major collection point.

very soon Nigerians will be rubbing each other of "urine... weldone jare...Nigeria needs great mind like urs..

This is a welcome development. I hope Nigerian government will be wish to develop this technology further.

Our Igbo brodas will soon open shop 2 buy and sell piss.....Nnamdi and Sons Piss shop

This is a very easy process.separate urea from urine by electrolysis.hydrogen and carbon dioxide accumulates at the cathode While nitrogen and hydrogen accumulates at the anode.pass the hydrogen through pottasium hydroxide and it oxidise into potassium carbonate.the rest is free hydrogen. This is low level chemistry project in high school.only in Africa will this be an achievement.

It appearing cheap now and u guys are happy but if this was to be started for real, the urine to be use would be an imported ones because 9ja especially our igbo guys would be diluting their urine for sale and these guys won't need urine from 9ja again while so many would be drinking so much water like 10ltr/day which would still amount to diluting via diluting from source such that eventhough u stay at the processing factory to pee it won't still be accepted. Urine of top politicians would be most rejected.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The energy used to separate the hydrogen is more than the energy the hydrogen would give back in the water making process.

Although you are correct.

I the guess where the achivement comes from is the type cathode and Anode used. Of course it has to be cheaper than the energy it provides.

Abeg i nid cash o, no be say if i finish pee na, d govt. go kun dey 4om urine owners as them do crude oil o, nd make dem no remove subsidy 4 urine o, lol.
He is making sense with that o. Kudos Mr. Nwosu. An Ss2 guy at zamfara state also used lemonine to make biofuel, imagine o, jst by mere soakin d peels of orange nd lemon in water for two days, after wich he took the water to d lab nd heated it, collected the gas into a conical flask, dipped stick in2 it and ignited it. Mehn it was as if he dipped it insyd petrol. Nd again, the product is also drinkable nd cures cancer.

cogitoErgo: please urinate here, scientists need your urine! lol
Seun, we need a science section.

cannot be over emphasised.

And where av u been all this while?

HavE been around,just never knew this was a big deal.
@^^^ the process would be highly inefficient no matter the conversion process used
The only useful thing might be to convert the urea to nitrite for use in fertiliser.

Pls modify ur last paragraph, we hv had enough bombing. Biko!

shuurrup and piss!

With due respect to the gentleman claiming to have "invented" the concept of using urine as a raw material for the production of methane, it bears mention that this process has been in use already for decades, in rural areas of China and India, and also in cattle ranches around the United States.

There is nothing magical about the anaerobic fermentation of human sewage or livestock dung to produce methane gas, and all it requires is a sealed fermentation chamber where that sewage is evenly mixed with precise volumes of water, to produce a slurry of the right consistency for the bacterial action needed to generate the methane. That methane can then be piped off for direct use as cooking gas, as is done in China and India, or, the gas can be used to fuel small-scale electrical power generating turbines that significantly reduce the mains electricity consumption of the establishment producing the gas.

Sorry Mr. Nigerian inventor, but you may as well claim to have re-invented the wheel, for all the recognition you will attract.

Now then, at this juncture, I would like to unveil my ingenious new invention of a video camera that sees through women's clothing in order to glimpse the promised land. Thank you Lord. The top-secret invention process involved my internet purchase of a certain discontinued infra-red sensitive video camera that was hurriedly taken off the market a few years back, due to the discovery of its capacity to render clothing invisble. Praise the Lord !

You have not commercialized the process in Nigeria with all of your knowledge. This guy is trying to do that, give him some credit. #Badbelle

You've gat to pee in my car for me to give you a ride! Possibilities are endless. Hope our brother is assisted and wish him the best. Do we go to the filling station or toilets for refuelling?

Bad belle chei!!! Nigerians and bad belle!
Nwoke unless you've done this and produce an effective outcome or thought of anything proactive to change the outcome of Nigeria as we know today then you have right to ridicule mr.nwosu. Until then, don't do bad belle.

Black men with their need to hold other black men down na wa oo!!!

Great!even if its not new technology;this time its done by a Nigerian.we will have access to it,not the imported version that will come very expensive.
Cheers NWOSU.

Jakumo, thunder fire that your smelly mouth that you are using to castigate and denigrate our esteemed inventor.
Until you finally unveils your asewo invention, you have no right to talk down on another inventor. Otondo

Thank you very much. Saw this in my Introductory Technology textbook during my JSS years. Detailed drawings,although nobody has tried in Nigeria to my knowledge.

...mama chidi im off to work, make sure these children take enough water so we can get enough urine u know times are hard monitor and make sure no urine is wasted..everybody must meet target including u..lol.. on a seriously note this commendable, it is indeed a great succour to know that people are working so hard to gurantee energy for the future irrespective of the tempting circumstance by perpetrator of boko haram to do otherwise..welldone
"nwa nnaa

I thought the biafran army in d year '67,used this form of energy and more. Where are dos guys?

@afam4eva
O boy make you go be comedian . luv your joke . we can identify some talents in NL

Its a good idea. But i was thinking that on the long run, will urine be cheaper than petrol? We should also consider the process of collecting the urine. because u n ur family's urine wont be enough to meet ur daily needs. you will have to solicit for, collect and store urine from family and friends. how feasible is that. We shld also consider the health implication

This is a very silly idea. People who do not know Chemistry will be highly awed, but there is nothing miraculous about these sorts of stunts.

ANYTHING ORGANIC is a potential fuel source. The Question that you need to ask is: HOW EFFICIENT IS IT?

If you are going to use two gallons of petrol to produce one gallon's worth of energy, this process is a joke!
That information is missing from the article. It is like those people who swear that GLO INTERNET IS FAST.
(Bless God- if their necks ever fall into my hands...! It will be so ugly.)

STANLEY MEYER of America came up with a way to get THREE TIMES AS MUCH ENERGY out of FRESH WATER than the equivalent weight of Gasoline.
The energy that is used to liberate the Oxygen-Hydrogen mixture is less than the energy from burning it- which should be Thermodynamically Impossible,
but he did it. (So they assassinated him in 1998, after he proved it to their satisfaction.)

THAT is how you report that a discovery has merit.

Do you know that you can generate electricity by burning garbage as fuel in a steam engine?
Nobody is talking about that. As if our Mechanical Engineers have no brains.

whY?
