	Hydrogen vehicle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hydrogen can be obtained through various thermochemical methods utilizing methane (natural gas), coal (by a process known as coal gasification), liquified petroleum gas, biomass (biomass gasification), or from water by electrolysis or by a process called thermolysis.
		As in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, the volume of the vehicle that the tank occupies is significant.
		The device, called a hydrogen power pack, inserts hydrogen upstream of a forced induction system, and is used to increase the amount of compression and timing advance feasible before detonation occurs with low-grade fuels.

	The Hydrogen Hoax on future cars
		Hydrogen has been greatly oversold by ‘evangelists” in the USDOE and elsewhere and also by the environmental lobby, including some very persuasive writers who are adept at choosing half truths to fit their preconceived conclusions.
		A natural hydrogen carrier such as natural gas, methane, a liquid hydrocarbon or methanol, represents a viable alternative to pure hydrogen for fuel cells, as they require far less energy to extract the hydrogen at the point of use and can readily be derived from coal.
		The reason that the hydrogen car goes such a very small fraction of the distance is that there is a large energy lost in separating and in compressing the hydrogen.

	Hydrogen powered cars
		This will be done by developing the technology for commercially viable hydrogen-powered fuel cells to power cars, hydrogen powered trucks, homes and businesses, without air pollution or negative greenhouse gases.
		Even President Bush the Oilman, has been forced to say the words "hydrogen cars" but the problem is he's talking about the hydrogen fuel cell, an expensive detour requiring billions for research and precious metals to manufacture, and would only fuel cars other than the internal combustion ones we already have.
		So accept no substitutes: Cleanly produced hydrogen fuel could be available from modules to serve thousands at existing gas stations-using electricity produced in solar- or wind-powered plants-and also from a module small enough to fit in your own garage, powered by electricity generated by a solar panel.

	Zinc Powder Will Drive Your Hydrogen Car
		Hydrogen can be found in great abundance (mainly as part of water); it does not pollute the air as it burns and it is more energetic then most existing fuels.
		In order to produce hydrogen from the Zn powder a much simpler process is performed where the Zn is mixed with water at a temperature of 350°C (662F).
		Another important advantage is that the hydrogen could be produced where it is needed, i.e., at the local fuel station instead of transporting large amounts of explosive hydrogen across the country.
