Are there any proven devices that allow a car to run on tap water?

Question

There are ebooks on ebay that purport to educate readers on how to run a car on tap water. The ebay seller has positive feedbacks. However, discussion threads on Goggle Groups indicate that the tap water power energy is "snake oil" -- so which is really true?

Answer 1

This is a scientific impossiblity. The cr_p you read about "monoatomic hydrogen", brown's gas, etc are just stuff and nonsense.

OTH, here's a car that can run on river water:

Answer 2

At theis time there is no way to convert H2O into energy, maybe in a few decades with fuel cells the will be able to do it.

The problem is that you would need to split the molicule to use the hydrogen for combustion.

It sounds like you are sceptical, but cannot think of why you feel it is wrong.

Think of it this way, cars can run on gasoline, diesel, alchohol, even vegie oil from frenchfries.

you can use all of these to light a fire, but water will put them all out.

Water does not burn, todays engines need combustion.

Answer 3

In theory possible. You need to extract the hydrogen from the water and then either burn the hydrogen or have it power a fuel cell. It'll happen some day.

Answer 4

you are not going to make a car run on tap water. think about it. automobiles use internal combustion engines. this means that in order for it to run there needs to be an explosion occurring inside the engine, which would require a flammable fuel. water is most definitley not flammable and there for would not produce the required explosion needed for an internal combustion engine to operate.
