compressed air can finally be used effectively to power vehicles. the design of australian engineer angelo di pietro is able to convert over 90% of the energy stored in compressed air, while the conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) usually has an efficiency of less than 20%.

    The franch car moved by air was filled witrh air from a compressor, using a single hose. If the tanks have a really high pressure, that require very strong tanks, how the sinle hose could handle such very high pressume?

    unless the compressor is powered by clean energy, you are just transferring the pollution to other places because most electricity is still made with coal in the US

    If large auto manufacturers didn't invest in oil markets maybe geniuses like this man would actually be noticed. Wishful thinking ha?

  • regarding the ...

    regarding the charging of the tank, it is much like charging the scuba diving tanks. it is possible to charge the tanks from a three stage compressor. if i remember right, angelo di pietro mentioned a pressure of 300 bars. it is also possible to store the compressed air in big tanks and transfer them into the vehicle tanks. this "refueling" would be much similar to putting air into the tyres. i shouldn't take too long.

  • angelo di pietro is ...

    angelo di pietro is ready with the compressed air motor. there are companies that are now working on the compressed air vehicle prototypes. it wont come as a surprise if these vehicles come out soon, considering the recent spike in fuel prices.

  • And i should add, ...

    And i should add, as the price of Combustable fuels goes up this is looking like a better alternative every day.

    I wonder how long it takes the air compressor to fill the tank. Perhaps you could fill this for free at the service station on their tyre pumps :)
