DUE TO FUEL STORAGE (COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS) NOT SUITED FOR LONG - DISTANCE HAULAGE
IT WAS SUGGESTED TO ENTER THE HYDROGEN USAGE BY USING A MIXTURE OF NATURAL GAS AND HYDROGEN IN ROAD VEHICLES. THIS COULD BE DONE TECHNICALLY BUT WILL HAVE NEGATIVE EFFECT ON FUEL COST.

PRODUCER GAS
Combustible gaseous mixture obtained
by blowing of air through an incandescent
GASIFIER
It is a fuel of low calorific Value
mainly containing C O & N 2
Bituminous coal, anthracite and coke are used as the raw material in gas producers. With minor variations, Peat & Lignite can also be used.

HYDROGEN
CAN BE USED IN I.C. ENGINES AND IN FUEL CELLS HYDROGEN IS NOT AN ENERGY SOURCE .... BUT AN ENERGY CARRIER WHICH HAS TO BE PRODUCED AND THIS REQUIRES ENERGY
EU COMMISSION WANTS TO FORCE EUROPE INTO A HYDROGEN ECONOMY BY THE YEAR 2050
HYDROGEN
PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN BY: - HYDROLYSIS WHICH SHOULD UTILISE REGENERATIVE ELECTRICITY (SUN, WIND, HYDRO, GEOTHERMAL) - STEAM REFORMING OF NATURAL GAS OR GASOLINE - THERMAL SPLITTING OF WATER IN A HIGH-TEMPERATURE NUCLEAR REACTOR
