Is the hydrogen car going to fix globel warming?
hydrogen gas is formed easily from burning water through electrolysis to form hydrogen gas then, in the combustion engine it explodes and turns back in to water how dose this effect the ozone dose it rebuild it self?

Yes, up to a certain degree. The fuel reduces the emission of CO2, NOx and other green house gases. However there is green house gas emission during the production of hygroden fuel.
How do you produce the Hydogen and what side effects are produced?
Nuclear power for the electricty=good.
Chemical reaction with hazardous waste by products=bad
CFL’s MAY affect the ozone layer but we really don’t know. The 2H2+O2=2H20 reaction should not produce O3 so there is no net effect.
Maybe the emissions won’t be as bad as petrol based vehicles and you could collect waste emissions and take a ‘filter?’ out every night and put in a new one, and before you criticise me, I’m not an engineer
im srry if i sound ignorant(im not meaning to)but there is no such thing as global warming….just look at the tempurature in the north! it has been below zero at least 10 or20 times this long winter season. but the earth has to run out of gas sometime…so i think that hydrogen cars are a very good think……..good question though
The hydrogen combustion that you’re talking about is ultimately not the best use of the element in fueling automobiles. Fuel cells are far more efficient, and are emissions-free. The only hurdle to their mass production is, of course, cost. However, many laboratories across the world are looking for other materials than the platinum currently used as the membrane in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. A break through in this area is approaching, although how far away it is is still a question.
Another potential problem for the propogation of hydrogen fuel-cell powered vehicles is a hydrogen infrastructure. Although the implamentation of such a thing would indeed be quite expensive (in the billions of dollars), similar amounts of money are spent annually in the defense budget and many other sectors of the U.S. Hydrogen embrittlement of steel is perhaps a larger issue in the way of this.
When it comes to hydrogen automobiles, they are, in truth, only as clean as the source of their hydrogen. Although they would be cleaner than current fossil fuel vehicles because of their efficiency and centralised Co2 production, if the hydrogen is produced from steam reformation via coal or electrolysis via any fossil fuel power plant than it is only partially green. Currently, the only method of energy production on a large scale, nuclear power, is seen by many as too problematic in terms of waste storage and safety. However, safety, in terms of potential meltdown and plant intrusion, is essentially a non-issue because of the containment buildings at all modern plants, as well as the high safety standards at any nuclear plant. Waste storage, as well, has a solution found under Yucca Mountain, despite what many anti-nuclear foundations would say about that issue….
Rambling aside, whether the hydrogen vehicle can be seen as a global warming-savior or not is dependant upon the method of hydrogen production more than anything else.
NR zal een slechter # 1 broeikasgas CO2 # 2 H2O vapor Dus het branden iets voor energie zal niet Slovenije de opwarming van de aarde probleem. De nieuwe energiebron zullen moeten gebruiken en dat is compleet natuurlijk en moet ook in staat zijn voor het produceren van energie zonder chemische verandering. De wind, de getijden, en zonne-energie hebben om meer in de main stream type energiebronnen.
Ja totdat iedereen keurt het dan zij besluiten om te klagen over. Komt het op hetzelfde neer dat er gebeurt met de CF-lampen in amerika een hand vol staat zijn te eisen dat ze en nu we leren van deze bollen zijn kwik in hen.
The ozone layer they are too heavy.
The gas that is formed affects the ozone layer they are too heavy.
ja, het vermindert de kooldioxide-uitstoot en helpen de planeet
No. CO2 is not why the earth is warming.
You gotta love Aqua Lung. He cuts and pastes the same answer to every question.
De "explosie" theorieën zijn grappig voor mij. Petroleum is veruit dus veel gevaarlijker op zo veel van de fasen van het gebruik dat het belachelijk. Het gebruik van waterstof als brandstof kan worden gemaakt om te resulteren in vloeibare H20 als uitlaat – niet noodzakelijk damp. En het proces om te zetten in waterstof water kan leiden tot de kant profiteren van desalinating zeewater. Uiteindelijk, maar waterstof is een energiedrager "in plaats van een brandstof (een soort batterij – om niet te bouwen te fijne een punt op.) Er is een idee dat we het achteraf aanpassen van supertankers als off-shore, zon, hoge temperatuur elektrolyse op basis van waterstof fabrieken. De drijvende fabrieken kan verplaatsen naar de beste voorwaarden zonne-en veiligheidsrisico's met zich zou tot een minimum worden beperkt. Ze konden het dok op verschillende pipe-gebaseerde systemen voor de levering off-load de waterstof.
