There's a new craze in cyberspace, where a lot of people are showing off their ingenuity of turning simple tap water into some sort of a re-invented fuel. That's good, sign of the times.

As in this age of global warming and climate change, the continued use of fossil fuel into its derivatives- causing pollution and it's potential depletion may have brought about this Earth's chemical and electro-magnetic imbalance.

So, it might pay for us to encourage the use of water for fuel, and considering that it may face stiff oppositions from oil magnates and oil-revenue hungry government, maybe we should startadapting to it within ourselves.

Anyway, no one can claim he invented water for fuel, because it is natural and universal science. Actually, the process of turning water into molecules of oxygen and hydrogen by passing it thru an electrical current and then channeling the explosive gas of hydrogen aided by oxygen gas into fuels for combustion, has long been proven.

Water to gas fuel is today's innovation, as it was the English Chemist, MICHAEL FARADAY, who first investigated it as ELECTROLYSIS. Where, after many careful experiments, he stated the following three "laws":

1) The ability of an electric current to cause electrolysis does not depend on the distance between electrodes.

2) The quantity of a substance that is electrolyzed is also proportional to the quantity of electricity used.

3) The quantity of a substance that is electrolyzed is also proportional to the substance's chemical equivalent. The chemical equivalent of a metal is it's atomic weight (in grams) by it's valence.

Faraday found out that approximately 96,500 coulombs of electricity are required to electrolyzed one chemical equivalent of any metal.

The number of coulombs that flow in each second is measured in Amperes. And Voltage is like an electrical pressure that pushes the coulombs through the circuit. In electrolysis, voltage is just as important as amperage.

A certain minimum voltage is needed to produce electrolyisis in any given time. For example, a minimum of 1.23 volts is needed to electolyze water to hydrogen and oxygen at 25 degree centigrade.

So, just from here anybody can expand and upgrade their own "water to gas for fuel" experiments and have their own portable water fuel station. Then who can beat that, we have to save this planet, you know.
