An audience of two

While the description in the cited report is quite vague and perhaps a little misleading, I see no inherent violations of any thermodynamic principles. Energy is both inputted into the converter (electrical potential energy) and outputted (chemical potential energy). While at face value it is a little hard to believe that such a machine could efficiently convert a stable molecule like water into a different form, catalysts can do amazing things. Review your own physics a bit before claiming fault in someone else's knowledge.
