I believe this will be the answer to the problems in the middle east as well as environmental concerns world wide. I hope I live long enough to see the results.
A fuel cell harnesses the electricity created in the chemical reaction that occurs when hydrogen and oxygen are combined. Hundreds of fuel cells are "stacked" together, combining their electrical outputs into enough electricity to power a car.
In the not-too-distant future, fuel cells will change how we live our everyday lives. They will power our vehicles, homes and office buildings more efficiently and with significantly less impact on the environment than fossil fuels. Fuel cell technology could end energy shortages and reduce reliance on imported oil. Before that day comes, however, four important challenges - hydrogen storage, cost reduction, durability and infrastructure development - must be solved. GM is working to solve these problems.

The Hy-wire has no internal combustion engine, instrument panel, brake or accelerator pedals – but it does have ample power supplied by a GM fuel cell that runs on hydrogen.

I think they just need more porn.....really just some good old fasion T&A and all of their liberals will no longer want to sympothize w/ the religious fundamentalist. This causes a Red Vrs Blue condition wich leads to this great thing we like to call democracy!

The lefties would have to change their chants to "no blood for Hydrogen'. No Big Oil to whine about. Big Peanut butter wouldn't sell. The Saudis would have nothing to sell but camels and used Mercedes...think about it.
-
You would still need energy to create the fuel. So it would have to be combined with the creation of non-oil using engery sources, such as windmills, nuke plants etc.

no blood for hydrogen.....

The hydrogen extracted from a gallon of water using a hydrogen generator could drive a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle as far as gasoline vehicles travel today on a gallon of gasoline.

what problems? dont tell me the probs there are because of OIL ! lol

vehicles are not the big consumers of fuel.
ships, aircraft, heavy industries....
thing that hopefully will eventually go to non-fossil fuel but if it takes this much effort to get one puny little car running on it, i dont see hydrogen or whatcannit fueling an airliner or cargo ship anytime in the coming century.

They are from oil. Oil is the only product that the middle east has. It has used this vast oil revenue to shore up Dictatorships that have caused the World a lot of grief. Saddam didn't use his persian rug profits to build up the worlds fourth largest military. He never invaded Kuwait to get at their Camel Dung reserves.
Without Oil Revenues the middle east will be a safer and saner place.

The only problem is it takes more energy to extract the hydrogen from the water than you get back from the hydrogen.
Hydrogen isn't an energy source, it's an energy transfer or storage mechanism.

How many Horsepower does that thing have?
The problem with all these secondary fuel sources is that they do not provide the power that Gas does.

oh yeah. what we need is more POWER, 250 hp is not enough we need 500hp...800hp.. 1000hp to drive to the market AT 35 MPH

Your right 250 HP isn't enough....350 to 400 is just about right. It has something to do with the feeling of being pressed against the back of a leather seat as you accelerate and the sound of the tires breaking loose as you power shift to second...not to mention the envious look of the guy next to you at the stoplight.
If you ain't been there it's hard to describe.
It's a big noodle thing....if you ain't got one you won't understand

Company whitch developed method, how to produce, store and distribute hydro-fuel announced, that they are not going to produce it for end-users, they expect contemporary fuel sellers to buy technology from them. It were announced in some 2003 or 2004 in germany.

This would cause problems in the Middle East. No water it's a desert. Countries with water would rule the world.
Hmm it rains here a lot!!!!!!!!!!

On the other hand there is the diesel engine. It pretty much runs on anything. Vegetable oil for one. People have been running diesels on veggie oil for ages. We could grow lots of oil. Countries with lots of good land could get rich growing oil. The power thing would be sorted. Technology always finds a way.
Hmmm this country has lots of fertile land.........

We have discussed about why aren't Americans using more diesel cars earlier in this board.
I'd see growing plants for oil-industry being a good way to secure farmers income in US; especially if bio-diesel will cost less than fuel (be it less taxation for diesel or more for fuel).
Modern turbodiesels are powerful engines with boatloads of torque, Volkswagen's 5 liter (302ci) V-10 TurboDiesel (used in VW Touareg) gives 230kW/308hp@4000rpm and 750Nm/550 lb ft @ 2000rpm.

lada.. for some reason you still aren't convincing me of what a paradise and fun place to live the middle east is.
As for diesels... we have banks turbo and other modded diesels here that put out maybe 500 hp but... mostly we only use em in pickups.
HP is fun. there is nothing wrong with having some fun john.... and no.... a prius is not "peppy" no matter what the dealer told you.

thats normal... coz we have pretty cool language. You can say " Dnes je krasny den" as well as "Den je dnes krasny" and everybody understand. Both forms are correct.
No .. realy you arent like me, Since you belive in TV shows and doesnt speak any other language but your native.
actualy nobody here politely commended my english ... all of them were as silly as yours. [mostly from people who run out of arguments]

So let me get this straight... Hydrogen is going to solve the Middle East's problems. It's going to do this by a reduction in value of the most prominent resource in the region.
So, in an effort to curb dictators and impose peace, all you have to do is make them poor? I thought those were the conditions which actually created worse situations.

Thats false.. According to Popular Science, a gallon of gasoline contains 2600 times the energy than a gallon of hydrogen.. In addition, even if it was liquid hydrogen kept at a chilled -253C a car could only travel about 250 miles on a tank 2 times the size of a standard gasoline fuel tank.. It takes alot more than one gallon of water to get that much hydrogen in its liquid form..

I will go so far as to ask if ANYONE on this board has any idea of what this guy is telling me or asking me or... hell... what he is even trying to say.
I even went to the link and found a discussion on how good or bad a speech was... If there is some hidden meaning or hidden proof of something.... I sure missed it. Just looked like opinions to me. As for the rest... I don't even know if he means me when he is supposedly quoting me in broken english.

Make them poor?? They do that themselves. Using that logic we made people in the wood wheel industry poor when we changed to the automobile.

That's not what he compared... he compared H20 to C8H18.
If you balance out a stoichiometric burn,
2 C8H18 + 25 O2 = 18 H20 + 16 CO2
So there is a 1:9 molecular equivalance.
I need 9 moles of water to balance out 1 mole of C8H18
MW of C8H18 = 66
MW of H20 = 10
so 90 lbs of water has as much Hydrogen as 66 lbs of Gasoline
10.97 Gallons H2O = 66# / 6#/gal = 11 gallons Gasoline.
the 1:1 volumetric equivalence is correct. Same amount of hydrogen in each.

It is also interesting to note that the reason Columbus wanted to sail west to get to the east was to get spices and if you went east, you had to deal with the Arabs.
We have had problems with the middle east since well before the petroleum era.

So are you saying that a gallon of water has the same ammount of stored energy that a gallon of gasoline has? If so, that's great but it doesnt remove the fact that it would require more energy to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen than the hydrogen would produce, or the fact that hydrogen would either have to be pressurized to extreme PSI's (10,000+) or liqufied to be practical fuel for cars.. Both scenarios are fairly impractical or dangerous to begin with..
I think we need Cold Fusion :cool:
-
Actually I was equating the number of hydrogen atoms in each.
If you stripped the hydrogen from the carbon in the gasoline, and you separated the hydrogen from the oxygen in the water, you would have the same amount of hydrogen.
The amount of energy to electrolyze the water into its constituants would be obviously much higher than the amount of energy required to strip the carbon from the gasoline.
-
And what happens when the fresh water is in such short supply that the water can only be used for drinking? When I was in Kuwait bottled water was more valuable to the locals than gold.

Speaking of unlimited supplies of energy, I was readin popular science once again, and read an article about a new solar dish. Supposedly an array of 10,000 square miles would supply all of america's electricity needs..
But who's gonna pay for it? Our Guvment loves us some oil and likes to invade people to get to it.. :rolleyes:
-
Water is not unlimited and nuclear energy is not clean. Look at the mess we have going on in the U.S. right not. Each state is fighting to send its radioactive waste to other states and those states are fighting back. No one wants that waste. And you can't blast it off into space because that 1 flight that blows up out of a hundred would be worse than any natural disaster. The switch to another energy source doesn't solve the problems of obtaining clean energy it creates different problems.
-
Water is just a medium for conversion of energy. It is not destroyed.
It is broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen, and if converted in a fuel cell or burned, the constituant parts are recombined to make water.
Theoretically there is no water use, so the water is unlimited.
The big reason the US nuclear energy industry has waste problem is because Carter outlawed reprocessing as I recall, by executive order.
France and the UK reprocess and that which cannot be reprocessed goes through glass vitrification and is sealed in canisters for geological disposal.
Two billion years ago in west Africa, chain reactions started spontaneously in concentrated deposits of uranium ore. The reactions continued for hundreds of thousands of years forming plutonium and all the highly radioactive waste products created today in a nuclear power reactor. Despite the existence at the time of large quantities of water in the area, these materials stayed where they were formed and eventually decayed into non-radioactive elements.
Nuclear power dams no rivers, creates no greenhouse gasses or acid rain, doesn't chop up fish or birds in spinning turbines...

Right. I think you missed my point... I'm all for removing our depedence on foreign oil. I think there should be a prize like the Ansari X-Prize, but for hydrogen fuel cell development. The long term benefits to us outweigh the hurdles to get there.
However, the topic of this thread is "Answer to Mid east problems", and I'd like to know how it would solve them. If we flipped a light switch, and were on hydrogen tommorrow, the US could gradually withdraw it's concerns and stay out of the region, leaving it to the UN. The region destabilizes due to a collapsing economy based around the devaluation of oil. Food shortages, civil unrest, etc, etc. Foreign aid goes up even higher. The UN has to send peacekeepers, so, the US military gets back on their boats, and heads back to the Middile East. Now, in addition to being infidels, we're responsible for the poverty of a region in turmoil that also happens to have relatively unstable nuclear powers. The Imams preach to the masses that it's the fault of western countries, as opposed to their inability to keep up in the field of fuel technologies. The next wave of terrorism and Jihad begins.
Like I said, the switch would be great for us, but I seriously doubt it would solve the problems of the Middle East, and would even expect it to make them much worse.

Nothing we do or don't do will solve the poverty and ignorance in the middle east. It will have to be solved by them. The point of my thread when I said "problems" was to solve our problems in maintaining a stable middle east to allow for the free flow of oil to developed nations that need it . The world can't be served by constant turmoil that threatens the free flow of a product that most nations depend on to maintain healthy economies. The Terrorism that we see today has nothing to do with oil, poverty
lack of education or anything else. It is simply a radical group of religious zealots that want their form of Islam to be world wide. Terrorism is actually not what we are at odds with today. Terrorism is a weapon, not a cause. We are at war with radical Islam...it's just not politically correct to say so. If you tell the truth some world leaders and politicians as a knee jerk reaction scream "RACISM". Until they come to grips with that reality their problems will never be solved.
