Your average hydrogen-powered automotive is a marvel of recent science -- gas cell sifting electrons out of pure H2 and emitting nothing but water -- powered by huge, heavy, high-stress tanks of gas. Cella Power is right here to ditch the tank, having first developed a means of storing hydrogen in microfibers that would drastically simplify the design of those vehicles.
But, perhaps even more impressive is a "artificial gasoline" the company is engaged on which is, essentially, pure hydrogen captured into microbeads. You recognize, like the type that float in your shampoo and give your hair that additional lustre, however explosive. In keeping with Cella these beads might be poured into the gas tank of a automobile with an internal combustion engine (presumably suspended in some type of liquid) and, with no modification, that car will run simply fine. Best information is that this concoction costs simply $1.50 per gallon -- or will, eventually. Supposedly. Possibly?
