View Full Version : H2O or CO2?

Since Carbon is a much better fuel per mole than Hydrogen, why don't we consider reusing our exhaust to generate Carbon and Oxygen?

Perhaps we can get OU from CO2 and we can burn the exhaust gas again and again.

Scientists says that it is impossible, but why should we listen to them?

Awesome, maybe I can use my CO2 Generator I bought off ebay to do this.

Exactly!

The Hydroxy eBayers can set you up.

There are no basic differences between burnt Hydrogen and burnt Carbon.

CO2 is a flame suppressant, that's why.

Isn't H2o a flame suppressant?

How would one go about turning CO2 into useful energy?

I have no idea. Perhaps through a chemical process?

The point is that both CO2 and H20 are the products of oxidation (burnt).

The notion of getting a "fuel" out of them without expending a lot of energy is difficult for some to grasp.

CO2 is mentioned to focus the issue.

Unfortunately Im not a chemist and the only reason I know what i know is because Ive read every bit of information that hho'ers provide. I have no knowledge of what you can do with CO2
