Sustainable Limitless BioFuel

Creating Hydrogen from Water

John Kanzius, 63, is a broadcast engineer who formerly owned several TV and radio stations, before retiring in Sanibel Island, Fla. Five years ago, he was diagnosed with a severe form of leukemia, and began a quest to find a kinder, gentler way to treat the disease compared to harsh chemotherapy. In October 2003, he had an epiphany: kill cancer with radio waves. He then devised a machine that emits radio waves in an attempt to slay cancerous cells, while leaving healthy cells unharmed. His experiments in fighting cancer have become so successful, one physician was quoted as saying, "We could be getting close to grabbing the Holy Grail." But in the midst of his experiments as he was trying to take salt out of water, Kanzius discovered his machine could do what some may have thought was impossible: turning water into hydrogen based fuel through an inexpensive process of radiowave bombardment.

My Personal Hero

I don't even know where to start with this guy - but the review below mine says it all. He is a radio engineer who has discovered a new treatment to fight cancer, and at the same time developed a new, clean energy. AMAZING.

One of the major arguments against hydrogen as an energy source is that it takes more energy input than you get out of it. What people forget is that the same is true of every other source of energy as well - we simply arent the ones putting the energy in. Coal and oil for instance are both created by a combination of geothermal and pressure - actual renewable resources. Hydrogen is not an energy source in itself - it is an effective source of energy storage and transportation. What would happen with this technology is it would be powered by solar or wind - an actual renewable resource, which are stored in the form of hydrogen to be transported to "gas" stations for cars, or which can be used in off hours when the sun isn't shining or when the wind isn't blowing.

Additionally, the process described in the video also helps to desalinate water - something that is currently an incredibly energy intensive and costly process. If that is taken into account as well, this overall process becomes much more viable.
