hydrogen

The idea is not new, but with the rise of cheaper high-temperature superconductors and the need to ditch oil&coal, this concept for a combined liquid hydrogen/LNG with embedded superconducting electricity transmission could be exactly what we need to make the most of renewable energy sources...

According to this interesting article in the US Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences US researchers have managed to generate hydrogen by bacterial action without needing an external power source. If correct this is a major breakthrough in practical hydrogen fuel production, though...

Here's an interesting, and misleading article that is irritating because uninformed people reading it are more likely to jump to CT theories about supression of car engines running on water. After all, urine is almost entirely water. http://dsc.discovery.com/news/2009/07/08/urine-power.html

Ajay Sharma is a teacher of physics, who sprung to fame due to of course, the media. When changing something in physics is considered a big thing, it's usually someone tampering with the master equations of physics history, one most notably for its popularity is the E=Mc^2 conservation equation...

I definitely want one of these: http://automobiles.honda.com/fcx-clarity/ Apparently Honda is leasing these in the Santa Monica area, where they are providing refueling, for $600/month, 3 year lease. Very encouraging that someone is doing something at least on the alternative fuel front.

I was reading an article that described the basic process of electrolysis, with an anode and a cathode in water - hydrogen bubbling off of one, oxygen bubbling off the other (in fact my son has a toy rocket that's hydrogen powered that works this way) - but the article concluded saying that this...

An interesting article I stumbled across on Fark: Now, I don't know for sure (naturally, there are no sources mentioned), but to me this just sounds like using solarpanels to run electrolysis. I also don't know for sure, but doesn't it take just as much, if not more, power to split water as...

Anyone here know of a reliable consumer-source for food-grade, 35% Hydrogen Peroxide? It's very important it is the ingestible type. I understand from this wacky website it can be tricky to obtain? Not sure if that's true. Obviously, I’m suspicious about any info that website offers. I'm looking...

Chatting with my mum last night I discovered that she, along with several family members are drinking h2o2 for their health! She seems to be going on Testimony, such as my uncle's amazing change from sleeping 18 hours a day down to 8hrs. Shes already starting to show signs of confirmation bias...

Hydrogen pill raises fuel hopes Excerpt: Wow. A hundred-fold reduction in storage size. Not bad. In a somewhat related story, the new Danish company H2Logic announced a (small) vehicle running on H2 the other day. What's interesting is that the CEO says that the new technology mentioned...

I have a little bit more free time at this point. I'm very interested in the latest developments of the hydrogen economy. Aside from the fair bit of reading I've done on the Internet and various articles in scientific and political science magazines, I'd be interested in picking-up a book that...

I came across this in the metro section of the washingtonpost: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A38168-2004Nov9.html It turns out it's only servicing a grand total of six vehicles in the District, but I guess you have to start somewhere. Then on the way home I heard on NPR that...

This is a new article in the new Scientific American magazine that just came out. You have to be subscribed to see this article unfortunately. I have tried googling the article to see if it would show up, it hasn't...

I came across a mention of this guy, Harry Braun, who is on the Democratic ballot for the DC primary today. I decided to check out his website: http://www.braunforpresident.us/ It seems like he has this plan for solving the world's energry problems with these "windships" that will apparently...

I was sitting here on this thread, pondering the topics started about the universe. And I was marveling at how the universe supposedly sprang from nothing. And then there was this hydrogen gas that got formed. One can't get too giddy over some gas, can they? But one has to wonder where the gas...

I am a newbie so go easy on me. Looking at Bob Park's What's New for last Friday, he discusses the efficiency fallacy of hydrogen fuel, i.e. the energy required to make hydrogen fuel is greater than energy provided. He uses an analogy of "You can buy an apple for one euro. If you really want...

Holy cow! On toast! I can't believe I'm the first one to start this thread! http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030612/ap_on_sc/hydrogen_environment_6 Take a look-see. The researchers are estimating that the leakage would be 10-20 percent! What do you think? Isn't that a...

Hydrogen fuel could disturb the Ozone layer: Just when you thought it was safe...

I am rereading Quantum Generations by Helge Kragh but I missed something in the history of particle physics. What keeps an electron from touching the proton in a hydogen atom? I know there are reasons that they play medicine ball with the photons but I can't remember why they don't join...
