New hydrogen production technology reduces fossil fuel consumption

Scottish scientists have discovered a new natural, renewable hydrogen production methods. The breakthrough for the first time obtained by the ethanol fermentation of food all transformed into hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
Produce hydrogen fuel cells as fuel. Fuel cell can be directly converted into fuel for electricity, without combustion.
 
The new hydrogen production method is the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, scientists and laboratories around the world partners in the co-operation after 10 years. This new method for the future of the family, to power buildings and vehicles.
At present, more than 90% of fossil fuels, hydrogen is natural gas through the system to obtain. Hydrogen for power generation, a significant reduction in the future of human dependence on fossil fuels. People are the main concern of this approach is that the production process of large quantities of carbon dioxide contribute to global warming.
However, this new approach to food fermentation ethanol as raw material, with carbon neutral and sex. The environment the carbon dioxide produced will be re-absorbed, used for plant growth.
