...and that buys you what? Burning gasoline to produce electricity to
electrolyze water
into hydrogen and oxygen to burn? There are energy losses due to inefficiencies
all along
that chain. This is NOT a potential energy source for an automobile. As for
welding, if
you've got the electricity to use to electrolyze water into H and O, use it to
run an arc
welder instead.
BTW - I got a laugh from the bit on one "Brown's Gas" website I checked out
about the
"reduced volume" of the Brown's Gas producing a vacuum implosion, and the
"extra available
atomic-level energy" that produces "'plasma-type temperatures" that don't show
up as heat.
HA! LOL, ROF LOL.
