Fuel from Water
Fuel from water is something the scientists and engineers have
been looking at and working on for over 200 years. The first so-called
"water car" was built by a Swiss engineer Francois Isaac
de Rivaz in 1807. The fuel from water was basically hydrogen created
by electrolyzing H2O and running through a small engine.

Scientists over the past two centuries have noted that fuel from
water is not only possible, but easy to create. Simply run an electrical
current through water and ignite the resulting gases and there is
flame enough (an explosion enough) to move the pistons in an internal
combustion engine.
Granted, if you just look into a glass of water, the liquid that
we drink doesn't look like it could or would be used for fuel. But,
water is made up of two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. NASA
space rockets use both liquefied hydrogen and liquefied oxygen to
propel themselves into space.
Apollo, Gemini and Space Shuttle aircraft have all used hydrogen
fuel cells to run onboard systems. A hydrogen fuel cell will take
compressed hydrogen gas and oxygen and run this through the cell
to create electricity. The only "waste" from a fuel cell
is heat and water out the other end.
Fuel cells can also be run in reverse. You take water and run it
through a fuel cell to produce hydrogen and oxygen gases. So, you
see fuel from water is not only possible, but it is happening today
and has been happening for quite a while.
A newer phenomenon that has been occuring within the past couple
of years is using water as supplementary fuel in internal combustion
engines. You may have seen the advertisements on the Internet about
running your car on water using a Mason Jar full of H2O that will
be turned into fuel to increase gas mileage and lower emissions.
Some people scoff at the Mason jar as it looks amateurish. But,
the bottom line is that it works. Yes, there are better designs
than the Mason jar as some manufacturers may use plastics, acrylics
and stainless steel in their design.
I advertise the do-it-yourself plans on this site simply because
they do work. Many garage mechanics are also using the plans as
a starting point so that they can build a better design and then
sell their own version locally or on the Internet.
So, you see fuel from water is not only possible, but it can be
quite profitable as well. Add to this that you are helping many
other drivers clean up the environment and ease their pain at the
gas pump and it's a win-win for everyone involved.
