Hydrogen Expo

- cnudi@bradenton.com
PALMETTO — Professional engineers and technicians, along with garage tinkerers and home inventors, joined hundreds Tuesday to share their knowledge about creating fuel from water.
A lot of what these professional engineers (ones from around the world), engineers and garage tinkerers are up to, they have uploaded to YouTube  (click to get started on a search)

Many have multiple videos where they test different setups and formulas.  It is the most organic form of trial and error scientific discovery.  Some are real characters too.  I felt as though I was being flashed back to Henry Fords garage or the Wrights shop in Ohio 100 years ago.

Here is a video where gas is being generated without any electrical source.



I've got a water atomizer on my Compressed Natural Gas van.  It atomizes water which is sucked through the manifold via vacuum pressure.  I am testing the milage numbers.   It does not use electricity.  The shop that put it on for me has it on their own vehicles and claims a 20% increase in mileage.   I note that I have water vapor coming out of my tailpipe.     There are some significant differences in what my engine is burning CNG vs 87 Octane gasoline so this is really an experiment.  I am going to hook up an actual hydrogen generator like you will see on the link:  YouTube  and see how that compares to the atomizer.
