Hydrogen

What is Hydrogen? - Hydrogen, chemical element that exists as a gas at room temperature. Hydrogen gas is odorless, tasteless, colorless, and highly flammable. When hydrogen gas burns in air, it forms water. French chemist Antoine Lavoisier named hydrogen from the Greek words for "water former."

How do Fuel Cells Work? - You may have heard a lot recently about fuel cells. According to many news reports, we may soon be using the new energy-saving technology to generate electrical power for our homes and cars. The technology is extremely interesting to people in all walks of life because it offers a means of making power efficiently with little or no moving parts ( did you know a larger size fuel cell needs a cooling system? ) . But how does it do this and what are the other requirements a fuel cell needs for operation.

DIRECT SOLAR-THERMAL HYDROGEN PRODUCTION - An investigation of direct solar-thermal hydrogen and oxygen production from water is described. Nozzle jets and skimmers have been used for separation of the products and suppression of recombination. The dissociation of water vapor and the separation of its products was conducted in plasma-enhanced, non-equilibrium glow discharges.

Don Lancaster's "Its a Gas" Hydrogen Library - This library page holds a collection of hydrogen energy resources.

Training Video:

Roy McAlister ElectroChemistry, Hydrogen and Fuel Cell CD-ROM - 7+ Hours of VHS resolution video on CD-ROM. Complete discussion for the average person, he explains everything, no Ph.D. needed, about PEM (low temp), PAFC (medium temp), Solid Oxide (high temp) Fuel Cells and more. Fueling systems, Hydrogen Production' Hydrogen Storage, Safety. Watch actual construction and operation of a PEM fuel cell. See an engine run off of pure hydrogen (more efficiently than a fuel cell!), find out how to make hydrogen with aluminum and water, find out how Edison was going to have iron plates delivered to residential houses (like Ice was) to make Hydrogen ...and much much more. Satisfaction Guaranteed.

This education is not available in collage. The fuel cell and energy and hydrogen business is taking off like a rocket, just like the early days of computers, remember the fast acceleration in the early 1990's? Hydrogen, fuel cells and other energy systems right now are like the PC in 1981, only this field is going to move faster than the computer field. Its not a question of 'its gotta happen' or 'it has'ta happen.' It WILL happen, do you wish to learn more to be able to participate in this exciting and potentially financially rewarding field.
