Petroleum: The Clean, Renewable Fuel for the Future

[nightlife]

Static electricity can be collected and if electric car motors were powered with pulsed current instead of direct current, the collapsing fields could be recovered to help prolong the battery's charge life. The time it would then take for the charge life to fall below the needed voltage, enough static electricity could be collected and then used as the power source.

Think of a Bedini motor and then ways of collecting static electricity. Then imagine a Bedini motor that utilizes both poles of the electromagnetic coil. Then add the torque of the gap between two opposite poled magnets.

Do you really think big money would let someone do this? LOL

sorry, double post

Hi nightlife,

Cars already run on pulsed DC. The alternator produces AC which is turned into pulsed DC by ur voltage regulator.

I think that you would have no problem producing and marketing an on-board steam reformer system. The Pacific Northwest Lab built one in 2004 which was later used by the US Army in Iraq to produce H2 fuel for fuel cell generators on the battlefield. Then the Army dropped funding and a private source they had also lost interest.

In order to convert a car, truck, ship or locomotive to run on either CO/H2 Synfuel or straight H2 you could use one of the many dual fuel systems which are already available out there. I spoke to one of the lead researchers at Pacific Northwest as well as an engineer at a company that produces dual fuel systems and base my statements on those conversations.

Benefit is that up to 60% of the fuel you are running your car on comes from water and this reduces fossil fuel consumption and CO2 pollution by a similar percentage. Also you can make this fuel from any carbon or hydrocarbon and water (even coal). This is the basis of the FutureGen coal plants. Of course they aren't really coal plants, the turbines there run on hydrogen fuel so they are actually the world's first large scale hydrogen from water fueled electric plants. Yet no one seems to realize this or understand the technology....

Farmers could fuel their equipment from old cornstalks. Truckers could double their fuel mileage. The world could reduce it's fuel consumption and CO2 pollution by 60% in a few short years... This is why I decided to give up pointless H2 schemes and focus on what will work NOW, not in 20 or 30 years. I firmly believe that on-board reformers are the way we need to go.

By the way, steam reformers can be made to be exothermic and self sustaining so they rob zero power from the vehicle. It is 60% H2 from water fuel with no losses and since you store your H2 fuel as water until time of use there is no problem with changing our storage, transportation or distribution infrastructure to use H2 fuel in this manner. All claims I make here can be verified through many articles published in peer reviewed journals and I will be happy to supply links to same to anyone who is interested.

enki09,

I think you missed my point. I was referring to the electric motors used in electric cars.

Please post some links because I would like to read some of the articles you are talking about.
