How To Build A Hydro Assist Fuel Cell And How It Works?

There are many valid reasons to start looking for alternative fuels for your car. There is the looming danger of global warming, and of course, the most pressing as of the moment, the current global economic downturn. It is for these reasons that many people are looking for ways to lower their spending on fuels. While it may take more than just decades to totally eradicate the use of fossil fuels, there are existing technologies today that can help anyone improve the fuel economy of their car and extend the gas mileage per gallon.

One of the more promising technologies out there is Hydro Assist Fuel Cell otherwise known as HAFC. It is a system, meaning there is more than one technology and more than one theory governing how it works.

Think of your car as an energy factory. It uses fuel in the engine to create energy that is transferred to the wheel that makes the car go. It also creates electrical energy from the alternator and the battery. HAFC rides on the energy created by the engine from the fuel to make the system more efficient.

HAFC technology extracts a hydrogen-oxygen gas mixture from regular water by ionization. It uses the energy from the car’s electrical system and battery. This hydrogen-oxygen mixture, called Brown’s Gas, is added to your fuel before being sent to the combustion engine.

This Brown’s Gas is then added to the fuel before it is combusted in the engine. Brown’s gas extracted from water enriches the fuel mixture, allowing you to pump less fuel into the engine yet you get the same (if not greater) amount of burn, thus improving you vehicle’s gas mileage.

This system also uses powerful magnets to ionize the gasoline to produce smaller molecules that burn rapidly and cleanly. It is a common mistake that gasoline burns. Gasoline does not burn, however gasoline vapor does. Gasoline is made inert to lessen the chances of it exploding. Before it is burned in the engine, the liquid gas is turned into a fine mist and pumped into the car’s combustion chamber. Mist is still mostly liquid. HAFC technology turns it into a gas, and the system breaks it down further to make it burn more. This result in a more explosive mixture, means more power, and less emission, using less fuel. That is the reason why LPG cars that run on Liquefied Petroleum Gas are more popular, economical even.

Although more proof is needed, various studies have already shown that the HAFC system can save you a minimum of 50% in gas expenditures. This dramatic increase in mileage and fuel economy is expected will vary vehicle to vehicle, and depending on the uses the vehicles sees.

The beauty of the HAFC System is that it will work on all existing gasoline-burning cars. And unlike conversions to LPG fuel, there will be no need for modifications, only added components that will not burden the car. It is also compatible with other emerging technologies such as Pre Ignition Catalytic Converter technology, which should be available to you soon.
