Rising fuel prices are a reality. So is the technology for a water powered car. Yes, you read that right. Scientists have developed a device that extracts HHO from ordinary water through a process called electrolysis. Although water will not be the primary fuel used, a water powered car can be a genuine solution to our dependence on expensive oil.

While water fueled cars may sound like something out of a science-fiction book, the principles behind this procedure come out of a high school chemistry book. By passing an electric current through water, the individual atoms of hydrogen and oxygen are removed from the water, creating a compound known as HHO. This is a type of gas commonly known as Brown gas that can be burned cleanly while supplying a stable source of energy.

Once produced, the Brown gas is directed to the airflow that is located in the intake manifold of the car's engine. After this, it is mixed with the gasoline and both fuels are combusted or burned together, creating the power needed to drive the car. The wonderful part about this invention is the fact that it doesn't require an overhaul of the car's engine or a costly setup of equipment. Water powered cars only need a device that is placed under the hood. This device can be removed or replaced without a lot of mechanical skill, which increases the advantages of this invention.

The benefits of water fueled cars are enormous. Although the technology doesn't exist yet to run a car completely on water, this device can dramatically improve gas mileage. The extraction of HHO from water can easily supplement the current fuel usage and decrease our nation's dependency on foreign oil sources. An added bonus is the more efficient running of the car's engine. When burned as an energy source, Brown gas produces water and oxygen as by-products. This makes it a more environmentally friendly fuel, as it doesn't contribute any harmful substances to the atmosphere and even joins in the fight against global warming with its decreased carbon dioxide emission. Besides the favorable impact on the environment and the obvious financial savings to your gas tank, this type of technology also becomes an IRS deduction.

The next question we should all be asking is "Why isn't this device installed in every car?" That's harder to answer than explaining how the extraction process works. For many years, the control of oil equals power. If water powered cars became widely available, the quest for oil would diminish and the key world leaders would be shuffled*possibly to their disadvantage.

The science behind water powered cars has been in existence for about 20 years. Unfortunately, this amazing device hasn't received the accolades or the attention it deserves. The principles behind powering a car with ordinary water have been proven to be effective, yet, the next step is a wider dissemination of this knowledge, which will result in a much-needed outcry by drivers for the government to fully sponsor such technology. The gas crisis is real but water fueled cars may be the start of a brand new and economical solution.
