Water Fuel Ireland is a technology based on splitting water on board a vehicle, and using the resulting Hydrogen and Oxygen gases NOT to drive the vehicle - but to boost the efficiency of its petrol combustion.
100% water cars are not in our scope of activity.No modifications to the engine, computer or fuel injection systems, therefore any person with basic mechanical skills can install it easily.
What can be called "water-fuel technology" is age old, over 91 years. All we've done is raise it from the dead and develop a simple structure based on low cost hardware. Although there is a myriad of hydrogen generating designs out there, ours is the simplest and also the safest to date. The electrolyzer, bubbler and water reservoir have all been combined into one super-simple device.
Three major factors work together to cause water splitting: direct current flowing through the electrodes to the water, the magnetic vortex created by the shape of the electrodes, and the vacuum provided by the engine itself.
In a nutshell, the effects of this technology is lowered emissions and improved mileage, thanks to a MORE COMPLETE COMBUSTION. Today's internal combustion engines suffer from poor efficiency of 20%-25%, as any mechanic will tell you; 75%-80% of the petrol, instead of being converted to forward motion, is instead converted to pollution and carbon deposits (unburned fuel), as well as heat (global warming), vibration and noise.
Again, THE MAIN PROBLEM IS OVERSIZED FUEL DROPLETS IN THE MIXTURE. The Hydrogen, being the smallest particle in nature, hits a droplet, cuts it into smaller droplets and attaches itself to the smaller droplets. Now the finer, hydrogen-enhanced petrol mist, is capable of burning more thoroughly.
On top of improved performance, the engine steam-cleans itself every day, and the resulting effect is smoother and quieter operation. One user in the United States was shocked when she checked her 4-month-old engine oil and was sure that she had run out of oil... Actually what happened was that while she was expecting a dirty dark brown oil, the oil was so transparent that she could not see it on the dip stick! Her 20-year-old car is as smooth now (with 1 device on) as it was when she bought it 17 years ago.
Another lady "complained" that she could not hear the engine running...but to her surprise the car was still running along.
Our technology is not capable of running a car on water alone. Our aim is not to replace petrol but to enhance it - and open the door and the mind to the possibilities of water-fuel technology. With correct fine tuning we can double a vehicle's mileage, rendering a new energy balance: half petrol, half water. Very little water is used, in an economy car it's around 2700 miles per gallon of distilled water. We have demonstrated how the fuel consumption of a generator can also be cut in half.
Not all cars, loads and driving conditions will gain the same, obviously. For ethical reasons we do not build up expectations for more than 10%-50% improvement in fuel economy, however daily success stories from experimenters who are seeing gains of 25%, 50%-100% in various vehicles. For some, significant economy gains inflict a revelation that something can be done about it, while for others it's a life changing factor.
Our hope is that Water Fuel Ireland will emerge and evolve into a national wake up call for drivers both young and old, how we are harming the air we breath and how we can develop a new understanding and respect for nature's abundance storehouse of Hydrogen and Oxygen!
