NOVELTY - A hydrogen and oxygen production apparatus comprises cathodes (50) positioned in an outer chamber (20) at various points; and a single anode (60) positioned within an inner chamber (30). The inner chamber is disposed within and in fluid communication with the outer chamber containing an aqueous liquid (1). A direct current power source (3) is electrically connected between the cathodes and the anode to initiate an electrolytic reaction within the inner chamber causing hydrogen gas and oxygen gas production.    USE - For producing hydrogen gas and oxygen gas from an aqueous liquid (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The apparatus utilizes electrolytic action to initiate the separation process of element hydrogen and oxygen from an aqueous solution and a resultant pyrolytic reaction greatly enhances separation of elemental hydrogen and oxygen from the aqueous solution. The cathodes and anode are electrically connected to a source of direct current power. Current flows from the anode through the aqueous solution to the cathodes, creating current conduction paths through the fluid in the outer chamber. These conduction paths converge in an area of the second chamber proximate the anode, creating extremely high temperature and the release of concomitant light energy around the anode, to enhance the gas separation reaction by sustaining a pyrolytic reaction proximate the anode.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a method for producing hydrogen by connecting a direct current power source between an anode and cathodes so that direct current flows from the cathodes to the anode to initiate a reaction proximate the anode and produce hydrogen.
