Cheaper Way Found to Produce Hydrogen June 26, 2003 08:03 PM EDT WASHINGTON - Organic wastes such as paper mill sludge or cheese whey can be converted into hydrogen using an inexpensive metal catalyst, researchers say, in a process that could boost efforts to replace oil and gas fuels.

Sorry about getting back to this issue late, I am an assistant scoutmaster, and I just got back from a camp out. The thing about a H2 fuel cell, is that it does not require a reformer, that will split the Hydrogen atoms off of the other atoms ( Carbon and Oxygen in the case of methanol and

Ah... Robert, you need 2 O2 for each H2, for combustion. The result is 2 H2O. Simple high school chemistry. Water is literally hydrogen oxide. H2O2, HYDROGEN PEROXIDE is very reactive, and breaks down to H2O and O2 on the flimsiest excuse, that is why it is kept in dark plastic bottles ( or

A reformer is what many fuel cells use, so that they can use a heavier fuel than H2, but it generally comes at a cost of decreased efficiency. On the other hand, fuel cells that run 'hot' like Solid Oxide Fuel cells, are hot enough that they don't need a separate reformer, and can even use

Part of it, I think, is that Methanol has a slightly higher Hydrogen density than Ethanol. This would could to a higher efficiency, for the amount of fuel used. Let me think CH30H ( Methanol ) 4 out of 6 atoms ( 2/3rds ) are Hydrogen and C2H5OH ( Ethanol ) 6 out of 9 (also 2/3rds ) are Hydrogen
