Hydrogen Car demo

Most Americans agree that when it comes to fuel, we're quickly approaching "E." But Gerardine Botte, a chemical engineering professor at Ohio University, may have found a fuel cell solution to the petroleum problem. According to Botte, the answer is ammonia.

Put simply, Botte and her research team designed a little black box that takes hydrogen "in situ", or on-site, from ammonia and sends it on to a fuel cell. This technology could some day power road vehicles or even power homes.

Here, graduate student Purusha Bonnin uses a model to demonstrate how a hydrogen car would work.

yeah its really cool.

cool stuff! My kid will like this!

fuel cells are not effecienct.. the hydrogen that chemical process makes can replace gasoline. pupm it into a combustion engine you get 0 emmisions, more horsepower, less carbon build up and more money in your pocket.

the easiest way to make h2 is aluminum, LYE and water.. its exothermic though.. lotta heat

hi, may i know where i can get the container (anode cathode fuel cell)?? i need it urgently for project purpose.. thanks in advance..

[Begbucks]

I won't be winning any races this way but interesting never-the-less ;)

[eloid777]

are your make nh3

...your electrolite uses koh and ammonia, will the electrolysis process will make

hydrogen oxgen ie hho or brown gass combined with  ammonia

to make nh3?

Very sexy accent!

Great. So they are playing with fuel cell. We in Europe are propelling luxury cars with hydrogen.

first stap of future

Yup It runs Very Slow!!
