The first water driven car

 The first water car is already a reality: could put an end to Gasoline     

Electric cars are growing in sales, with figures we would never have imagined. However, the lack of resources to produce them is a problem of growing concern… or at least it was until now, this state has “magic” water, with a chemical element sufficient for 400 million vehicles. Car manufacturers continue to look for alternatives to petrol and fossil fuels, some as curious as synthetic fuels, which we’ll come back to soon. However, one company has dared what we only knew in theory, this is the first ever water car, and you won’t believe how it works. Following are the some of the important points:-

Water in this state is “magic”: a foreign chemical element for 400 million cars.

A water-fuelled car is an automobile that hypothetically derives its energy directly from water. Water-fuelled cars have been the subject of numerous international patents, newspaper and popular science magazine articles, local television news coverage, and websites. These vehicles may be claimed to produce fuel from water on board with no other energy input, or may be a hybrid claiming to derive some of its energy from water in addition to a conventional source (such as gasoline). A water car that puts a date on the end of gasoline, this company has made it happen. The idea of powering a car with water instead of gasoline has long fascinated inventors and environmentalists alike. What if cars could run simply on hydrogen extracted from water?

It would provide clean transportation powered by the most abundant substance on Earth. While water-fuelled cars have remained mostly at the conceptual stage, a pioneering company called Electriq Global is turning the dream into reality. Based in Israel, Electriq Global has developed a proprietary system that efficiently converts water into fuel to power vehicles. Their technology extracts hydrogen from water and uses it to generate electricity that propels the car. This leap forward stands to completely transform the auto industry while also benefiting the environment. With an estimated 1,000 km range per tank, Electriq’s water-based fuel could soon make gasoline obsolete.

The water-powered car technology developed by the Israeli company Electriq Global utilizes a unique nano-technology that is able to split water into hydrogen and oxygen through a specialized membrane. This membrane acts like an electrolytic cell, using electricity to break down the water molecules into their composite elements. The hydrogen produced from the reaction is then fed into the vehicle’s fuel cell. In the fuel cell, the hydrogen combines with oxygen from the air to generate an electric current. This electricity powers the car’s electric motor, propelling the vehicle. Unlike traditional combustion engines, the only by product from this reaction is water, meaning the car emits only clean water vapour rather than any harmful emissions. The membrane that splits the water molecules was developed specially by Electriq Global. It contains unique nanomaterials which make the reaction possible using much less electricity than has been needed before. This breakthrough helps make water-powered cars using hydrogen fuel cells a viable reality.

Most proposed water-fuelled cars rely on some form of electrolysis to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then recombine them to release energy; however, the first and second law of thermodynamics guarantee that the energy required to separate the elements will always be at least as great as the useful energy released, so this cannot be used to produce net energy. Electriq Global has built multiple prototypes to test and refine their water-based fuel technology. In 2018, they successfully road-tested a Renault Clio retrofitted to run on the hydrogen-on-demand fuel system. The test car achieved speeds over 70 mph and required no engine modifications besides connecting to an external water tank and fuel converter. Further road tests are planned using a Suzuki Vitara SUV retrofitted with a larger fuel converter and water tank to extend its range. The fuel converter efficiently extracts hydrogen from water and feeds it to the engine with no loss of performance compared to gasoline. Through rigorous testing and refinements, Electriq aims to prove the viability of water-powered vehicles for everyday consumer use. Electriq’s goal is to demonstrate over 600 miles per tank, comparable to traditional gasoline vehicles. So far, the technology has shown excellent results in normal driving conditions. The truth is that a water car could be the end of petrol and all polluting fuels. We have known for years that hydrogen would play a very important role in the decarbonisation of mobility, but not to this extent.
