The research towards finding an ethanol fuel generator has reached a promising stage. The basis of this research is fuel cell technology. A fuel cell works just like a battery by electrochemically combining hydrogen and oxygen without combustion, to generate electricity. A battery cell requires charging or may drain off after prolonged use. But a fuel cell will continue producing electricity so long as the fuel is continued to be supplied.
The mechanics of a fuel cell include two electrodes sandwiched between an electrolyte. When oxygen is passed over one electrode and hydrogen is passed over the second, it generates heat, water and electricity. The process expels pure drinking water in the form of waste.
Ethanol is the main fuel source for the ethanol fuel cells generators. When fuel substance like ethanol is introduced, the system converts into a generator that provides the power to fuel the car or whatever device you want to run.
Fuel cell technology allows vehicles to run on alternative fuel. Alternative fuels are "green" fuels and they enable vehicles to run for a longer time and at economical rates apart from being environmentally friendly. Experts believe that ethanol will be the fuel for the future. If you add the light fuel cells to the car engine, your car can run just as efficiently as on gasoline. You will also get excellent performance from your vehicle, because Ethanol burns cleaner than petrol. You are also helping the environment as ethanol fuel cell generators give out little or no emissions.
