Hydrogen is very abundant in our world and easy to acquire through the electrolysis of water. Hydrogen also burns clean; producing water as a byproduct. This is preferable to carbon emissions in our atmosphere.

Can hydrogen be used as furnace fuel?

Hydrogen can be used as a furnace fuel, but it is not commonly used due to challenges in storage, transportation, and combustion. It can be used in some specialized industrial applications where its unique properties are advantageous, such as in high-temperature processes or when a clean fuel source is required. Research is ongoing to improve the feasibility of using hydrogen as a mainstream furnace fuel.


What are some hydrogen products?

Hydrocarbons (It is an element made up of only hydrogenand carbon) There are different types of hydrocabons: methane, ethane,propane,butane. If you want to know more go research on google.


What are some examples of hydrogen power?

Some examples of hydrogen power include fuel cell vehicles, where hydrogen is converted into electricity to power the vehicle's motor, and hydrogen fueling stations that provide hydrogen for vehicles. Hydrogen power can also be used for stationary power generation, such as in fuel cells for buildings or backup power systems.


Can you use hydrogen peroxyde in a fuel cell?

Hydrogen peroxide can be used in certain types of fuel cells called direct borohydride fuel cells. In these fuel cells, hydrogen peroxide is used as an oxidant in place of oxygen. However, the efficiency and practicality of using hydrogen peroxide in fuel cells is still being researched and developed.


What is the advantage to producing energy from fusion of hydrogen?

If it can be made to work, the two main advantages would be: 1. A source of deuterium from water that would never run out, 2. It would not produce the fission products that are a problem of disposal with fission reactors

What are the advantages and the disadvantages of a hydrogen fuel cell car over a hybrid car?

Advantages are very low emissions. Disadvantage is rarity of hydrogen fuel stations.


What are some advantages and disadvantages of hydrogen fuel cells?

The advantages of using hydrogen fuel cells are that they are an alternative fuel to fossil fuels, like coal, oil and gas. Also, burning or reacting hydrogen with oxygen runs electric motors and it's only emission is water vapour. The disadvantages of using hydrogen fuel cells is that hydrogen does not occur naturally on Earth and thus is not an energy source. It takes a great deal of energy to extract Hydrogen from water. Hope this helps! :)

What are the advantages of fuel cells?

The most important advantage of fuel cells is that their only byproduct is water, and of course discarded parts. The disadvantage is that the hydrogen used in them has to be electrolyzed from water or found in some other way. Because of the law of conservation of energy, fuel cells do not produce energy, they only store it.

What fuel is used in a fuel cell automobile engine?

Fuel cells operate by combining hydrogen and oxygen without actual combustion as in gasoline engines. A catalyst separates the electrons and protons to combine the elements. (Some versions of fuel cells are high-temperature only.) Hydrogen gas


Can you fuel your car with dirt and water?

No, there is no combustible substance there. However some car companies have concept vehicles that use hydrogen as a fuel; Hydrogen is a gaseous mix of water and oxygen.
