Hydrogen Fired Engines Needed Now ;)


Imagine how a hydrogen fired engine would run lol

Hydrogen Fired Power Stations is a Must...

"Hydrogen, a viable reality" NGen CEO

Put your circuits in the sea By NGEN & MIT

MGMT
"All along the eastern shore
Put your circuits in the sea
This is what the world is for
Making electricity
You can feel it in your mind
Oh you can do it all the time
Plug it in and change the world
You are my electric girl." MGMT


Fuel for Cars, Energy for Homes,


With the advent of nano-extraction techniques, the extraction of
hydrogen from sea water for the use of power generation and fueling
of cars is a step closer. NGEN's proposed conversion of coal and gas
fired power stations to hydrogen and the supply of hydrogen for cars
will revolutionise the worlds energy sector.

MIT's Belcher uses engineered virus to split water

By Christine Peterson, on April 16th, 2010

Angela Belcher and team at MIT have tweaked a bacterial virus to serve
as a scaffolding to:

attract and bind with molecules of a catalyst (the team used iridium
oxide) and a biological pigment (zinc porphyrins). The viruses became
wire-like devices that could very efficiently split the oxygen from
water molecules.
Belcher says that

within two years she expects to have a prototype device that can carry
out the whole process of splitting water into oxygen and hydrogen,
using a self-sustaining and durable system.

This is just a very early taste of what we can expect someday from
more extensively designed molecular machine systems.

“Hydrogen is a critical piece of America’s future renewable energy
policy,” said Robert Dopp, CEO of GridShift, Inc. “Our new water
electrolysis process generates carbon neutral hydrogen that is
cheaper
than gasoline at a fraction of the cost and size of currently
available water electrolysis hydrogen generators. We are now on the
path to a truly viable hydrogen fueled future.”


The key to GridShift’s process is a new method for coating a complex
three-dimensionally shaped electrode on all surfaces with a unique
combination of nano catalysts that expose the catalysts to the
electrolyte for efficient water electrolysis reactions and is robust
enough to withstand the rigors of electrolysis. The result is an
electrolyzer running as a full cell at 1000 milliamp per cm2 at 80%
energy efficiency. GridShift is on track to reach their goal of 85%
energy efficiency, which is 47 kWh/kgH2 or $2.35 per kg of H2.
Technical details of the development, procedure and the discovery are
available in a whitepaper published at

What's their trick for getting around COE?
