Doc, is this rubbish ?! Here we need it

Remember the movie "Back to the Future"? So, as most technologies know, come to us from fiction, it happened this time. Specifically, the following happened: A Spanish guy with a sonorous name (or nickname) Aleix Llovet, with a faithful comrade-professor Xavier Salueña, invented and brought to life, a time engine driven garbage.


With this engine, he equipped a radio-controlled car. And he showed it in:


Just a few aluminum otkryashek (or, damn it, what are they called?) Is enough for 40 minutes of operation of a small, radio-controlled model, while reaching a speed of 20 miles / hour (~ 32km / h). Also, in the process of work there is no emission of CO2 into the atmosphere.

How it works

I am not a chemist, inaccuracies are possible.
Parts of aluminum are passed through alkali (sodium hydroxide, to remove the oxide film) and dissolved in water inside the tank. Aluminum, devoid of an oxide film, reacts with water, and as a result, hydrogen is released, which then passes through a filter with vinegar and water to remove alkali particles (hydroxide). After hydrogen passes to another filter consisting of silicone balls (silica gel), where it loses moisture to increase its efficiency. Finally, the hydrogen reaches the node producing electricity, in which electrons from protons are separated through the membrane. In this way, electricity is obtained which feeds the electric motor.

Let's hope that the technology will take root and already in ten years, we will be able, without a twinge of conscience, to throw beer cans into the bank, our flying cars of the Seat brand (the Spanish have come up with all the same).
