The Pros And Cons Of Having A Salt Water Powered Car

Introduction
Gas prices rise and lower every year, there is no telling how high they will go and how much everybody will be spending for one gallon of gas to put into their car. Having a different source to power one’s vehicle would be a great alternative. Using gas causes pollution from all the carbon that is coming out of the exhaust of cars. Global warming is also causing sea level to rise which means we could use all the excess water to power cars. Having a different alternative to power our cars is a good idea because who knows when we could run out of natural materials that we use now to make gasoline for the vehicles we drive. The idea of having a salt water powered car has been debatable and skeptical. Some engineers believe that is

What they thought they could do with this machine to to separate salt from seawater and then it would be able to be drinkable. When John Kanzius, inventor of the RFG, aimed his machine at a test tube filled with saltwater he saw a weird reaction. He saw that there was a spark when he aimed it and used it. Moments later he tried it again to see if it would happen again and the test tube then caught on fire and stayed on fire. Scientists and engineers were skeptical about this so a group from Penn State and tested it out. They researched and discovered that it could be as hot as 3,000 degrees fahrenheit. After the 1970’s oil spill, engineers and scientists have been trying to figure out a different alternative source for powering vehicles. Flow cell system is a way that could make this car run as well. This flow system cell works by electrochemical reaction that is caused by two electrolyte solutions. There is hardly any moving parts in this vehicle so it does not produce a lot of waste heat. You are allowed to drive five times further with this system then with a battery that are in cars

The Quant e-Sportslimousine should go around $1.7 million, which is very expensive and very difficult for an average person to buy. If this vehicle could get down to an average price then it would change a lot of things. Within years maybe the company will have enough money to start making and developing an average car at a reasonable price for the population. At the time where majority of the population can afford this product then the earth’s environment will change for the better. The use of saltwater instead of fossil fuels and gasoline will make a big difference to the climate and to the amount of pollution that we have right now. Global warming is making our sea level rise which gives us more fuel to use for this vehicle when on the other hand out fossil fuels are diminishing and slowly running out of them to fuel our cars and
