Time to seriously try Water aided fuel economy?
As oil approaches $140 a barrel and the Petroleum Exporting Countries reap the benefits, the cost of living in the US spirals out of control.
Already citizens are reeling as the high price of gasoline takes its toll on commuters, automakers, airlines, truckers and shipping firms. The high oil price affects a broad spectrum of products: Insecticides and hand lotions, cosmetics and food preservatives, shaving cream and rubber cement, plastic bottles and crayons -- all have ingredients derived from oil, while the high cost of transportation affects every aspect of our living costs.
A few months ago some Wall Street Analysts were predicting a possible oil price of $200 per barrel. Others made light of these predictions believing them to be motivated by a desire among energy companies and investors to drive prices higher.
According to the Los Angeles Times however, "with oil closing above $140 a barrel more experts are taking those predictions seriously -- and shuddering at the inflation-fueled chaos that $200-a-barrel crude could bring."
Now aren't we sad that the electric car was killed?
What about claims of enhanced fuel efficiency from water?
It has long been the dream of motorists that instead of becoming bankrupt at the gas station, we could instead turn on a tap and fill up with crystal clear water, thus cleaning up the planet and not our wallets.
Keith Johnson, retired professor of materials physics at MIT, Johnson combined diesel fuel with tap water to form a mixture that cuts pollution, maintains engine efficiency and works in existing engines. His fuel is simple, stable and green.
He has apparently found a family of detergent-like surfactants that chemically bond molecules of water to molecules of the diesel creating stable 20-molecule clusters. He has licensed his discovery to Quantum Energy Technologies (QET), based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which plans to make and market his watery fuel worldwide. Perhaps the current price of oil will make this viable.
The NewS reported in 1999 that Johnson's find was the culmination of research that had started when scientists and motorists had noticed a boost in fuel efficiency when a little water had accidentally been added to the fuel. In 1994, American physicist Rudolph Gunnerman claimed that a blend of water, naphtha and petrol cut pollution and boosted fuel efficiency by more than 40 per cent. But Gunnerman's fuel has yet to reach the market. However, a French oil company, Elf Aquitaine began to market "Aquazole", a milky-looking blend of diesel fuel, surfactants and about 13 per cent water and claimed that Aquazole halved the amount of exhaust particulates and cut NOX emissions by 15 per cent.
Now a new home conversion kit promises to significantly reduce fuel consumption and change our lives forever. A step by step DIY manual is available that takes one through the process of converting a car or truck to burn both water and gasoline, or use water as fuel...they call it a water burning hybrid. Electricity from the battery is used to separate water into a gas called HHO.
This conversion process is said to
double the mileage obtained from normal fiuel,
Clean up emissions that damage health
enhance engine power and performance.
Remove carbon deposits and prevent future carbon build up.
Reduce engine temperature - protect your environment and your engine. Prevent global warming while you drive.
The manual and the parts cost no more than $150 and can be as easily removed as installed, making the process risk free.
I am no mechanic, but if I was capable of trying the technology I would certainly give it a go.
The electric car could be killed because of the central manufacturing process. A process available to any DIY mechanic can not be killed – merely perfected.
Do you really want to save on gas right away?
