The Engine That Makes Hydrogen Fuel From Natural Gas
February 21, 2017 | 3 Comments
Georgia Institute of Technology scientists have transformed an internal combustion engine into a modular reforming reactor that could make hydrogen available to power fuel cells wherever there’s a natural gas supply available. Unlike conventional engines that run at thousands of revolutions per minute, the reactor operates at only a few cycles per minute – or […]
