Hydrogen Fuel
Environmental Meltdown
Environmental Conditions are very poor:
 Temperature is increasing globally.
 Glaciers are melting and Sea level is increasing
 Dramatic changes in climate around the globe.
 Mankind will be at the verge of extinction in near future.
WHY?
 Unchecked continuous emission of green house gases from vehicles and industrial firms.
 Solar variation.
As we can not control the sun and we also need our vehicles and industries. Therefore we need an optimal solution.
An optimal solution
We need an alternate fuel for energy production which satisfies following criterion:
 It must be environmental friendly.
 Must be abundant and uniformly distributed.
 Should be renewable.
As we know conventional fuels are not eco-friendly ,they are not uniformly distributed and they are not renewable too.
Thus the fuel satisfying the optimal solution is Hydrogen fuel.
Natural Progression Towards Hydrogen:
As fuel use has developed through time, the percentage of hydrogen content in the fuels has increased. It seems a natural progression that the fuel of the future will be 100% hydrogen.
Driving into the future…..
Hydrogen-the energy carrier
What is energy carrier?
Energy carriers move energy in a useable form from one place to another. Electricity is the most well-known energy carrier. We use electricity to move the energy in coal, uranium, and other energy sources from power plants to homes and businesses.
Hydrogen is a energy carrier it does not produce energy it can store and carry the energy until it’s needed and can be moved to where it’s needed.
Why use Hydrogen?.
 It is the most abundant element in the universe.
 Hydrogen gas has the highest energy content of any fuel by weight.
 It has the highest effective exhaust velocity.
How to use Hydrogen as a fuel?
Hydrogen can be used as a fuel in two ways:
 Fuel Cell:
Fuel Cells are electrochemical devices that convert the chemical energy of reaction directly into electrical energy which can be fed to a system as per our requirement
 Internal Combustion Engines:
Hydrogen could eventually replace conventional fossil fuels in traditional internal combustion engines with some little modifications in strucrure.
Fuel cell:
A fuel cell is like a battery except they use the chemical energy of hydrogen to produce electricity and their only by-product is water, which makes them environmentally friendly.
