Well that's great as I believe the combustion engine is the future....running on hydrogen only with zero emissions.

If you are a young student you need to be careful of what you claim to be your own ideas. Using RVC & Coates technology obviously isn't your own creation. Pretending it is in any way is blatant plagiarism and could spell disaster for your future career and opportunities.

Internal combustion engines will always produce some amount of NOx and unburned hydrocarbons (if not from the fuel then from the lubricating oils). Running on pure hydrogen has never really stuck me as an overly bright solution as the safest and most effective way to store hydrogen is in a hydrocarbon fuel, be it fossil oil based or plant alcohol based.

The combination is unique but it uses already patented technology (one of the reasons I didn't make this project). As I have already stated several times that project will not happen (at least not from me). My new design is original as far as I know (I have checked through alot of patents to check) however since I don't have a final design and no patent on the idea I am not going to talk about it much here.

That sounds great but you should realise how little the rings would wear out on the RVC motor. I have owned many new cars and I never need to top up the oil as the rings aren't worn until 50,000
You obviously do not understand much about hydro carbons. Authorities are not as worried about emissions as they make out to be (in my opinion)The most damage is coming from the humble farmer releasing nitrogen from the soil as they plough this we wont hear about for another 20 years. What they're worried about is cancer from hydro carbons in dense cites. The world populaion is doubling every 30 to 50 years! have you ever been to a big city like Delhi ..the pollution is death! |

As I have previously mentioned, Eden energy have various patents on safe hydrogen storage, including electrolysis storage, of which they have a 50/50 patent with Queensland university. They also have other methods reducing the instability of hydrogen storage, this will result in a much thinner,lighter fuel tank.

I would think the respitory diseases caused by NOx and SOx aswell as CO. And the CO2 would be more of an issue. The problem with unburned HCs in 3rd world countries has more to do with the state of the cars (old, not properly adjusted ect.) then the fact that they burn fossil fuels...

Well you maybe wrong there. A fuel cell is not a combustion engine for a start, and an internal combustion engine running on hydrogen may also be as low in emissions. It also depends on the manufacturing of the Hydrogen.

Your talking about 10 000 km 100ml = 10ml of oil per 1000km not much , still not zero though , as you said besides petroleum companies who said you need to use oil as lubricant 2.

Farmers are releasing trillions of cubic feet of nitrogen into the atmosphere each year, most of this can be avoided using different ploughs , this is kept quiet as we all need to eat. Coaches Buses running on fuel cells are currently carrying up to 1500lt of hydrogen stored up to 5000 psi and the cost of each is over US$3mil of course there's other types mostly very large , some with acids at temps over 1500ºF . If fuel cells were as great as they make it out to be Eden energy wouldn't be building this http://www.edenenergy.com.au/pdfs/Me...%20Station.pdf 3.

How right you are Revetec. Australia is very lucky in this sense as we have the largest non volcanic shallow hot rocks in the world, Geothermal Energy zero emissions , making it very safe to produce hydrogen with zero emissions :-) |

Sorry I did have a couple of wines , my memory working better today you can do your own research . The 50/50 patent with Queensland university was for splitting Methane and putting it back together, when burnt it only produces solid carbon not carbon dioxide. Revetec I do like your Evolution of the Revetec Engine POST#896 I was the second to view it I must be spending to much time on here Last edited by 3yearsharehold; 02-29-2008 at 11:52 PM. |

If you are going to compare fuel cells to hydrogen burning ICE then it doesn't matter how the hydrogen is made (as you should assume that both are being supplied the same way).

No as I have stated that I don't have a final design and I don't have a patent yet
