Description
Hydrogen fuel cell, illustration. This is a clean and efficient power source. Hydrogen (H and orange arrows) is liberated from a natural source such as methanol or natural gases. It is then pumped into the cell, where the hydrogen nuclei are separated from their electrons (metallic spheres). The electrons flow around a conducting loop (centre and expanded at right) as an electric current, which can be harnessed. The hydrogen nuclei pass through a membrane and then combine with the electrons and oxygen (O) from the air (blue arrows) to form steam, and water is the only waste product.
