[@dlorde]

Given that splitting water into hydrogen & oxygen takes more energy than can be recovered from the hydrogen released (2nd LoT), I suspect that this was mistaken for the new _ammonia_ engine Toyota is developing, which will run on the hydrogen released from splitting ammonia, which takes less energy than can be recovered from the hydrogen released. It's much cheaper and easier to transport than hydrogen, using similar infrastructure to other liquid fuels. It's unpleasantly toxic, so a bit more care is needed.

[@rickcollins2814]

No one is going to buy a car that runs on ammonia. Ammonia is a very dangerous chemical, which is a gas when released. I don't think it was ever used as a chemical agent in war, but it would serve that purpose very well. You don't even need to breathe it, it will attach your skin and eyes. Very nasty. Even gasoline is much, much safer.

Stanley Meyer comes to mind, he mysteriously died about 30 years ago after building an engine in his garage that runs on water.

[@christianzilla]

There was no mystery about his death. He had abdominal pains after eating a meal with 'business interests' and said, as he was dying, "They poisoned me!".

[@christianzilla]

As an aside, Dr. Steven Greer MD acquired the equipment from the Meyer estate and said that Stanley had very cleverly left out some of the components, even from the plans, that made his device work hyper efficiently. He died with his secret apparently. This is what happens when you think you can commercialise it. It is revolutionary and iconoclastic, don't expect to get out alive, let alone commercialise it.

[@davybaert-oz8yw]

Where does the energy for the electrolysis come from? Making H2 has a very low energy efficiency!

[@richardalexander8226]

If you are aware of that, you probably have taken some Engineering, and have heard of Sadi Carnot and the laws of Thermo. If so you have already figured out that this is another scam, moving emissions from the car to the generating plant, losing energy at every step of the way. Unless the intent is to build Nuc plants to provide the energy, this does nothing. and if it is stalled awaiting a buildout of the H2 handling equipment all over the US/world, it is DOA. A first year engineering student could figure this out. Pro tip: invest when the subsidies start coming in. Take your money out when the subsidies stop. If Trump gets in don't even think of it.

[@daroz5351]

[@dageevil]

Just thought. The energy needed to generate hydrogen is nothing compared to the amount of energy to truck, ship, and process the fuel or recharge batteries it takes. I don't see Toyota doing this because of safety liability and can destroy industry sectors (oil, shipping) and governments (Saudi Arabia, Venezuela....)

[@Trashed20659]

This is just another version of the "free energy" engine. You cannot, as proven through solid laws of physics, get more energy out of a system than was put in. Water is not fuel, and has to be converted into hydrogen and oxygen to make fuel. The energy required to convert cannot be less than the value of the energy obtained once converted. The extra energy has to come from somewhere. Fossil fuels are already storing energy ready to be used, since nature provided the energy to convert them into their current form over eons. That is why there are no water engines. It is NOT because of some conspiracy. Junk science might get lots of views on social media, but that does not elevate its value.

[@mpb9671]

[@racerex340]

@@mpb9671 OMG, seriously? Meyer is still referenced? I remember first getting spammed by Meyer water engine info almost 15 years ago. It is 100% a conspiracy theory because he was never able to demonstrate, nor communicate how he was able to generate enough HHO to run an engine while using the engine to create the electricity he was using to crack the water and generate the HHO. He wasn't sued by the gas engine or petroleum industry, he was sued by two of the investors that he sold sales right guarantees to. He had agreed to have an electrical engineering professor inspect his vehicle and fuel cell but then made up excuses as to why it couldn't be inspected when the time came. His car was ultimately examined by experts via Court order and determined that he was simply using conventional electrolysis to create HHO, and there was no way his setup could generate enough HHO to even drive the car, let alone also create enough energy to split more HHO. If you think Meyer had it figured out, go build his fuel cell. All of his patents have since expired and are now in the public domain. Why hasn't someone else successfully used his design? Since gas engines are on their way out anyway, why wouldn't Ford or Toyota use Meyer's designs (freely) to create vehicles that had all the benefits of EV's but did not require the complicated EV charging network or extremely expensive Lithium batteries? It's because Meyer was a fraud...

I myself do as well. I support this. It’s very easy to use this when it’s not requiring our society to literally change the infrastructure to support it like EV’s. For this I like this idea. But using water I’m not all for. Have you seen the drought here in California? We don’t have the water to support this. The amount of gasoline we use. If we replaced that gallonage with water instead of gas and diesel. We wouldn’t be alive due to lack of water and extreme heat. Eventually I know this wouldn’t happen overnight. There is a way to build more reservoirs. But we need to do something so this is worth the try.

[@kylearaiza8808]

I’m even all for using this as a hybrid. Use EV and water technology in one car. You know modify a Prius. So no gas. Just water and electricity.

[@MrCBeery]

NOOOOO you dont!!!! Only 3% of the earth's water is fresh. We use most of it for farming. The rest drinking and taking baths. Can you imagine a world with such a water shortage because we used it up for everything? It takes 100 gallons of water to grow enough wheat to make one loaf of bread. Think of how many gallons of gas the world itself use in cars. In 2022 in the USA alone used 135.06 billion gallons of gas. Now convert that to gallons of water if we all switched to water engines. Thats less water for our everyday use and will drive the price of water up. Then you will see more places making it illegal to collect rain water. And everyone will be stinking because of no shower water because its used up in our cars.

[@alechorn1109]

I missed the part where he said how the engine worked. Where does the power come from to make the hydrogen?

[@jamesaron1967]

You mean how hydrogen is obtained from water? You didn't miss anything, it wasn't stated. From what I gathered it happens somewhere between the water tank and the engine. It would need to have battery power since electrolysis is a process in which DC is used to separate the elements (H and O2) from the water molecule. Then the hydrogen is sent into the combustion chamber where it is ignited to produce power.

[@michaelsnader5028]

They briefly mentioned hydrolysis to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen in water, but they completely ignored the fact that the electrical energy needed to do that is far more than burning the resulting hydrogen will yield. Hydrogen engines and hydrolysis of water to obtain hydrogen are both real, but being able to use hydrolysis in a vehicle is a pipe dream. It would take a 100hp fossil fuel generator to make the electricity needed to hydrolyze enough hydrogen to power a 25-30hp water engine.

[@ottoharris4112]

The one thing I've got to ask is, how well would it heat? Because I live in Missouri and just a couple weeks ago and we dropped below 0 degrees F, and water freezes at a higher temperature than gas. Not to mention heating the cars cab because I don't want to freeze either.

[@lattitude01]

Purely speculating on this one but i imagine it would probably need something like a modified oil pan heater we use in extreme cold conditions, as for heating the vehicle cab, nothing needs to be modified from a traditional internal combustion engine, as they use a ' heater core' which is essentially just a miniature version of the radiator your engine uses, it just sits inside your dash board and blows heat when you provide power to the fan.

The reason people think that producing combustion from electrolysis of water takes more energy to produce than it's worth is because a lot of DIY electrolysis methods on KZbin use basic electrolytes. Using an electrolyte that is highly conductive is key. Using things like salt or baking soda are not cost efficient. This is a basic process... But the types of electrolytes used for efficient hydrogen production is kept secret and are usually hard to get. Think of expensive materials like gold etc... how would you get an electrolyte that dissolves in water that's more efficient than traditional methods? Graphite solubles? This is the focus on development of such a cost effective engine...

The only win here is there is no storage tanks required since you use the hydrogen directly. But you still need to charge the battery first(on board electricity to electrolysis into hydrogen gas). Such water powered engine will only work best if it is a hybrid(electric motor as the main component to move the vehicle, then water powered engine as a support when cruising on expressways/highway). This way, there will be lesser battery required, thus reducing the weight and cost of the vehicle

The best way to describe it in non-subquantum kinetic terms would be to think of it as electron-spin resonance on a much lower level process having nothing to do with imaging. The field generated by the toroid exerts an effect on the water travelling through the pipes inside the toroid, splitting the polyatomic structure of water into monatomic components, and more hydrogen is generated as a result of the effect the field exerts via a subquantum kinetic process, which changes what we would ordinarily expect with "molecular", "atomic" and "subatomic" processes.

Damn straight. They might single handedly save the superior driving experience and acoustic pleasures of internal combustion engines, AND beat the four wheeled kitchen appliances otherwise known as EV's at their own environmental delusion. BMW deserves a worthy mention too, though.... In the late 1980's - early '90's, BMW had a fleet of E32 7 Series Sedans built to run on Petrol OR Hydrogen, which could be alternated at will by a switch on the dashboard. Similar to the "Dual Fuel" vehicles of the past that could be driven on Petrol or LPG, many of which are still in service. The Hydrogen 7 Series were sent around the world as concept demonstrators, driven by industry experts, journalists, and anyone interested, performing faultlessly at all times. There were industry rumours at that time that Hydrogen would soon begin displacing Petrol as preferred fuel for internal combustion engines, which BMW was enthusiastic about embracing & encouraging, so decided they would be one of the first to present fully functional vehicles as proof of concept. Unfortunately, they were too ahead of their time, as the anticipated shift to Hydrogen never came. In the end, the petroleum industry didn't want their cash cow disturbed, so killed Hydrogen off by declining to invest in the infrastructure it needed through their service stations. And at that time, pressurised Hydrogen still needed to be stored in specialised & expensive cryogenic tanks, both in the vehicle and at filling stations, in addition to requiring special hoses & fittings to transfer the Hydrogen during refuelling. All of which presented costly barriers that were even more expensive then, when the technology was still in it's infancy. Now, such tanks would be cheaper, and they definitely didn't have the potential to "run on water" stored in a simple tank, converted to Hydrogen on-board by the vehicle as it's transferred to the engine. Which is bloody genius. Kudos to Toyota for staying committed to and investing heavily in keeping Internal Combustion Engine technology viable for the future, when almost everyone else has taken the easy way out, and sold their soul to the EV Devil. Toyota's CEO personally loathes EV's, and is a major fan of REAL men's engines, not glorified food processors with the acoustic appeal of a Dentist's Drill, so is a man after my own heart. Toyota already has the Hydrogen fuelled Yaris and a cracking, stonking V8 of about 5 litres in production and for sale in more enlightened markets. Toyota is definitely leading the way down this road, now. And I bow to them in gracious gratitude. BMW were them, 33 years ago, with a commendably good product, but were cheated by that era, which wasn't as ready to accept Hydrogen as the world is, today. However, that still deserves to be acknowledged. Perhaps BMW's prior experience has made them wary about leaping into and investing heavily in Hydrogen again prematurely. I hope as they notice Toyota's enthusiasm & contemporary success with it, they re-engage, and use their past experience with Hydrogen fuelled vehicles to get a jump on the rest of the Europeans. They should really try to collaborate and share experience with Toyota in a partnership project to help each other evolve the technology and share the development costs. They would make a formidable collaboration team, and get a MASSIVE jump on the rest of the market, many of whom have already bet the farm and their future on EV's, with some like Volvo having stopped building cars altogether. REAL ones, anyway. Now producing EV crap, exclusively. If Toyota & BMW can show REAL car enthusiasts they don't need to give up their soulful, internal combustion goodness, to "whirr" around in soulless, battery powered, limp-wristed, gimmicky nerd-mobiles built to please squares, the rest of the market would take years to change their whole production strategies & facilities that they spent so much time & effort transitioning evermore to EV production, back to internal combustion, and then catch up on Hydrogen fuelled internal combustion know-how, that Toyota & BMW will have long since perfected.

I love new technology! The only issue I see is water in many parts of the US is dwindling. The only thing we have in abundance in most states is solar.

Toyota is always just a "few years away" from the next amazing technology. Reminds me of Blockbuster Video.

sounds like Toyota are clutching at straws, promising the earth again, playing catch-up

This tech has been suppressed for decades that I'm aware of. This engine type is much, much safer, for all living things and our planet, it's more efficient than gasoline. It's amazing how the masses do not understand that 2 parts of water or 2/3 of it, is the most flammable and most abundant substance in the universe. This engine will use hydrogen as the fuel and release oxygen O1. Burning hydrogen also produces helium. This engine work like lightning in the skies, using electricity to separate the hydrogen from oxygen, this process is a natural process and it sustain our planet. Great video!

There are several compaies making hydrogen fuel cells for 4 6 and 8 cylinder applications. I have picked one product for my ford and can't wait to have it installed. I also build a fuel cell out of 1 liter soda plastic containers and use the hydrogen produced to clean the cylinder chambers of my car at idle it will also clean the catalytic converter and prolong its life instead of pouring 1/2 gal of thiner in the tank to clean the cat every 20 to 30k miles. HHO is the best technology for the future but big oil has been fighting it now it's only a matter of time before HHO engines go mainstream.

Water is not normally regarded as a fuel since it is already "burnt".

[@calysagora3615]

It is NEVER regarded as a fuel. Because it's not a fuel, and no engine ever ran on water. (No, steam engines runs on coal)

[@qazwsxedcrfvtgb8877]

@@calysagora3615 Well water is comprised of 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen; I'm no chemist but hydrogen is very flammable and oxygen could be used as some sort of oxidizer for the hydrogen.

[@slodzinskithomas2406]

The last person that had a engine that ran on water disappeared I don't think the big oil companies liked the fact it did not need fuel or oil

I drive a Tesla, solar panels on my roof, net metering and TOU rates, live in sunny SCal and charge at home or at a nearby Supercharger station since I have free Supercharging for life of ownership. My electric ‘bills’ are usually a small negative amount. Beats pumping gas or any future hydrogen stuff. Ymmv

[@johnchandler1687]

About converting gas engines to hydrogen: A common coversion from gas to LPgas because it was cheaper required solutions to the lack of lubrication of valvetrain components. Gasoline has additives that not only lubricate but clean these parts. I imagine hydrogen has even less lubrication potential than LPgas. Not a naysayer, but it is one of the problems to overcome.

[@edwardneilsen2139]

My question would be since the one guy was able to convert his car are other gas engines convertible to it? Depending on the cost of conversion, that would save a lot of money and time in converting. Somebody sound sympathy for all the mechanics that have to do this if it is possible.

[@byteme9718]

No one has ever carried out such a conversion, it's just myth that has been claimed over and over again.

[@gnosphotos]

Yes, Stan Meyer did it a long time ago.

[@byteme9718]

@@gnosphotos Stan Meyer was a fraudster. You'd know this if you'd checked. He's up there with Ron Wyatt who claimed to have a sample of the blood of Christ he make available for testing and then lost it. You people are so gullible.

[@johnscaramis2515]

@@gnosphotos No, he did not. He claimed that he did it. Everyone with basic knowledge in physics and chemistry knows that this was a scam. Only people lacking education believe in this rainbow farting unicorn. You need to split up water into H2 and O2 and the amount of energy is known. Also the efficiency is known, it's about 50%. So you are losing 50% energy already in that step. Already at that point people should recognize that this does not work. And then on top comes the efficiency of an ICE, top efficiency approx. 40%, mean value around 15-20%. So you are losing energy again. Or let's take another approach: let's assume that electrolysis would work with 100% efficiency. Recombining H2 with O2 cannot create more energy than you hacve to use to split it again. So even without losses, splitting and recombining is a circular process, without any spare energy. And moving a car forward definitely requires energy. If you still believe that this modification was real and worked as Meyer claimed, I wonder how you manage your life with this lack of basic logic.
