Experts from university of Pennsylvania have declared creation of new technology due to which it is possible to switch automobiles into hydrogen fuel.

At their development scientists have used known earlier idea: any organic waste products, for example, the rests of meal are dumped in a small reactor. Further they are processed by special bacteria, then from an external source is given the low-power electric discharge with which help electrons and protons form a hydrogen molecule.

Hydrogen automobiles have many advantages: for example, refueling with hydrogen is much cheaper than refueling with gasoline and hydrogen combustion materials are not dangerous gases, but harmless water steam.

Though it is necessary to note, the problem is in commercial hydrogen manufacturing. Authors of the research assert that their technology can be used already now in places with plenty of biological waste products - for example, in an agriculture.
