Water burns, and we don't mean when it is boiling.
Whether you believe it or not, you can use water to weld metals, cut through steel, and even use water to fuel your internal combustion engine.
This is done by using a system that turns water into a gas called "Brown's Gas". Brown's gas is simply water broken down into its constituent parts, Hydrogen and Oxygen and recombined in a specific manner under a specific pressure. When these two gases are re-combined under pressure, they can be lighted and will produce an implosion that releases massive heat and energy.
California inventor and Professor Yul Brown has developed a system (and has since patented it) that will convert plain tap water to a stoichiometric mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, another state of water besides ice, water, or steam, and he has aptly called it as Brown's Gas.
Brown's gas can be used for many things, from desalinating any water into pure drinking water, welding, create a vacuum to pump water, sublimate tungsten, and cut steel.
There are already some early market versions of Brown's Gas Welders available in the market, and though still looking like they're in the prototype stage, are very serviceable. Another early setback is that cost, however, the cost of running them in the long term will more than compensate for the initial price. Brown's gas is efficient, safe, clean and inexpensive to maintain; no more dangerous oxy-acetylene tanks, simply water will suffice.
Another, far more significant use, of Brown's gas is in the area of automotive fuel efficiency.
Brown's gas is a critical component of Hydro Assist Fuel Cell or HAFC, a newly introduced system that significantly reduces gas consumption in motor vehicles.
Part of what makes HAFC technology effective its ability to extract a hydrogen-oxygen mixture - brown's gas - from water by ionizing it with electricity from the battery. The brown's gas is then added to your fuel before it is burned in the engine making it burn more easily and powerfully.
Brown's gas extracted from water enriches the fuel mixture, allowing you to pump less fuel into the engine but get the same if not greater amount of burn, thus improving you vehicles gas mileage.
Studies show that HAFC systems improve gas mileage at least 50%. This increase in mileage and fuel economy may vary from vehicle to vehicle, and depending on vehicle's usage.
These are currently some of the promising uses for Brown's Gas, and as shown by the Brown's Gas Welding machines and HAFC technology in cars, it is a discovery that will greatly benefit many industries particularly the construction and the auto industry. One thing is for certain, once the use of HAFC goes mainstream, it will greatly lessen America's reliance on foreign oil - one of the great victories for Brown's Gas.
