Possible wold changing invention i thought EN might find interesting.
This is an interesting byproduct of research into a cure for cancer.

It might be fun and informative if you folks at EN share any similar new world changing inventions in the market place that you know of or even an invention that you stumbled upon when trying to create something else and was able to bring to Market.
(Please no Inventions in the possess thanks) well i guess that goes without saying :)
My Electric shop teacher in junior high school Mr M. would always tell us if you can invent a new affordable source of energy you can name your price!!!

If you get to see the unedited version of this video, the guy admits that it takes more radio wave energy to electrolyze the water than you get reburning the hydrogen with oxygen. This video brought to you by the perpetual motion conspiracy theory fringe on youtube.

Yes that’s true Ralf but i believe the solution is in the works.
Here is a sample of information found at this link.

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/09...;

For now, the most immediate potential technology application is desalination—the process of removing salt from water—because the water formed after combustion is free of salt and other contaminants.

Scientists have known for a long time how to split water into its two elements, oxygen and hydrogen. But the problem is that the process requires electricity—typically derived from fossil fuels—which makes the process counterproductive and expensive.

Solar, wind, or wave energy, for example, could power the radio frequency generator, he said. As salt water passes through the generator, the hydrogen would be released.

“That would be a remarkable source of hydrogen and then you could either burn the hydrogen directly or use it in a fuel cell,” he said.

Aha Perpetual Motion one of my favorite subjects :)
