Salt water as fuel? Erie man hopes so
It sounds weird, but this guy claims to be able to burn salt water so long as it's exposed to radio frequencies.
As always, the big question is efficiency.
It sounds weird, but this guy claims to be able to burn salt water so long as it's exposed to radio frequencies.
The radio frequency actually weakens bonds holding together the constituents of salt water -- sodium chloride, hydrogen and oxygen -- and releases the hydrogen, which, once ignited, burns continuously when exposed to the RF energy field. Mr. Kanzius said an independent source measured the flame's temperature, which exceeds 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit, reflecting an enormous energy output.
