  1. Producing Hydrogen, Conversion from Water or Fossil Fuels Alternative Energy Solution Presentation Bethany Dunn and Josh Monroe APES 3rd Period http://www.hydrogen-fuel.org/hydrogen-fuel_org.jpg

  2. Main Goals of Hydrogen as a Fuel Source http://themoderngreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/hydrogen-atom.jpg

  3. Overall Potential of Hydrogen • Greatest potential of alternative resources in terms of protecting the environment • Abundance of Hydrogen • Hydrogen is in 93% of all atoms • The sun produces Hydrogen http://hydroxyautomotive.com/images/sun.jpg

  4. How It Works http://www.greencar.com/articles/hydrogen-fuel-cells-work.php

  5. Technological Obstacles to be Solved • 1:1 Net energy ratio or less • Stripping Hydrogen from fossil fuels and water • Still produces CO2 • Hydrogen as a combustible gas • Hydrogen fuel cells need to be more durable under certain conditions http://www.turkishforum.com.tr/en/content/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/b4.jpg

  6. Political/Economic Obstacles to be Solved • Not efficient as opposed to modern uses of resources • Willingness of public to change resources • Fairly expensive to own and operate • Development of a Hydrogen infrastructure to store and be able to deliver Hydrogen

  7. Impacts of Hydrogen on the Environment • Hydrogen has no negative impact on the environment • Fuel Cells work without moving parts • Hydrogen can be recycled by fuel cells http://www.airquality.dli.mlsi.gov.cy/Images/Articles/Kids_corner/clean.jpg

  8. Putting it to use • NASA is the biggest user of Hydrogen energy • Starting to be more prominent in the automobile industry • Ford fuel cell Focus • BMW H2R • Chrysler Natrium • Fiat Panda Hydrogen • GM Sequel • Mercedes-Benz F-cell • Honda FCX Clarity http://bioage.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/blue_focus_fcv_1.jpg
