The experiment on cars powered by cooking oil is no new, but fuel cell cars running on it! Yes, the hydrogen that powers fuel cell cars will be made from cooking oil. And if the process is proved to have commercial potential, other gas-sources could include — scrap tyres, waste industrial oil.
To perfect the making of liquid fuels by reforming unmixed steam, a team at the Energy and Resources Research Institute of Leeds University is working on it.
Otherwise difficult and expensive to store and transport hydrogen, this process claims to be a convenient way to distribute fuel for hydrogen production.
