Rew-Power Air is the first hydrogen-air reversible fuel-cell completely handmade in Italy!

Because of the scarcity of the primary sources of energy, the increase of harmful emissions, the rising of demand of energy and the expected increase of the world’s population is necessary a reconsideration about our systems to produce and provide energy. A possible solution to these problems could be the use of hydrogen as a fuel. To get power hydrogen can be burnt in a burner or used in a fuel-cell; with in both cases a minimum environmental impact, but in second case there’s the advantage of high performances.

Fuel-cell is a device which allows to transforms chemical energy of the fuel directly in electrical energy without combustion.

Hydrogen on supplying combines itself with oxygen in the fuel-cell to produce a water molecule and electrical energy.

There’s the problem regarding the production of hydrogen, in fact in nature it doesn’t exist “free”.

Actual methods of production to be economically competitive use fossil fuels. The unique valid, available and ecological alternative is the electrolysis: this process uses an electrolytic cell, supplied by water, to separate water molecule in 2 hydrogen molecules and 1 oxygen molecule.
