Re: Biomass to Hydrogen Report Web Address



Dear Stovers

For those who are interested to know, there is a new type of hydrogen engine
in development in South Africa which is about the size of a CPU for a
desktop computer that puts out 130+ HP.  It has resolved a lot of the
inherent problems of using hydrogen in an internal combustion engine: like a
very high flame speed and explosive firing rates.  I think it must have an
octane rating of about 1! (but I don't know).

Anyway, viable internal combusion for mechanical power from a pretty common
raw material is very good news.  The engine is up and running.

Regards
Crispin
