am sure there are several articles in www.snopes.com about the fake engines that can run on water. &nbsp;What we need is to separate the process.<br /><br />1) &nbsp;a Hydrogen generator -compressor that can fill safe tanks with hydrogen. &nbsp;The safe transport tank is the issue, as the hydrogen will kill you upon explosion.<br /><br />2) &nbsp;weight effeicient hydrogen motor. &nbsp;that can burn this and get maximum movement. &nbsp;This si actually possible.

<br />1) &nbsp;a Hydrogen generator -compressor that can fill safe tanks with hydrogen. &nbsp;The safe transport tank is the issue, as the hydrogen will kill you upon explosion.<br /><br />2) &nbsp;weight effeicient hydrogen motor. &nbsp;that can burn this and get maximum movement. &nbsp;This si actually possible.

<br /><br />1]&nbsp; Pure oxygen and pure hydrogen exit the generator.&nbsp; Pure oxygen is corrosive enough to require it to be bled off immediately, or that stainless steel be the only material allowed to contact it.&nbsp; Bleeding it off is easy enough by just using a vertical cylinder with a hole a third of the way down.&nbsp; The hydrogen will accumulate at the top and push the oxygen downward until it's forced out the bleeder hole.&nbsp; The hydrogen, meanwhile, provides pressure of its own at the top of the cylinder.&nbsp; If the cylinder has enough volume to provide sufficient hydrogen to run the engine 15-20 minutes, that's probably as far a a person needs to go insofar as storing hydrogen under pressure.<br /><br />2]&nbsp; A stainless steel vessel containing stainless steel&nbsp;plates spaced carefully apart submerged in water will serve for the hydrogen generator.&nbsp; But the volume of water filling those spaces increases the time it takes for the generator to begin generating hydrogen.&nbsp; Filling the spaces with glass marbles or beads speeds things up by reducing the volume of water.&nbsp; But it means cleaning the thing out will be a time consuming chore.<br /><br />3]&nbsp; If the oxygen is dumped as waste by bleeding it off the bottom of the hydrogen cylinder a carb and air injection ahead of the intake manifold will be needed to provide enough oxygen for combustion.&nbsp; But it removes the corrosive pure oxygen from the equation, at least.<br /><br />
