I was wondering.Basicly you feed electrolyser some water, and out comes hydrogen and oxygen. The chemical process releases electrons, which can be converted to power and heat. Now, it looses some of the electrons in the process, but can this process reverse itself in nature, eq. from power of the sun, and water rematerializes as h20?Or are the hydrogen burnt and it then turns back to the water? (hydrogen combines to 2 oxygens, releases some heat) Lets say in thousand of years, when we fuel everything with hydrogen or rather 0-point energy, would this deplete our water reserves?What happens to the water fed to the system, will it rematerialize, and where comes the power to separate hydrogen. Will this just consume water without it ever comming back?
HHO rematerializes as h20.
It's like this: Hydrogen, for the most part, isn't a source of power. It's just a means of storing and transporting power, like a battery. Nearly all of the hydrogen on Earth is already burned and in the form of water (H2O). It takes energy to unburn water to get hydrogen and oxygen and the laws of thermodynamics say you can't get more energy, or even as much energy, out of that process as you put into it, so the energy has to come from somewhere else. Any source of energy will do -- fossil fuel, hydro, solar, etc. -- but you can't get more energy out of burning hydrogen than you used to unburn the hydrogen in the first place. When hydrogen is fed into a fuel cell, it combines with oxygen producing electricity, heat and water. Since hydrogen itself is highly volatile and flammable, nearly all of it is going to burn eventually, in or out of fuel cells, so we aren't going to run out of water.
