Perfect Zero Polluting Bike

3. •Why do we need
this?
•What is this?
•How is this made?

4. Why do wee need this?
• We know conventional sources of energy like petrol
are limited and polluting , making our survival on
earth difficult.
• We know that battery bikes and electric bikes are ‘0’
emitting but they are not ‘0’ polluting.
• So in order to reduce the pollution we need bike
which doesn’t pollute our environment which is this
bike.

5. What is this?
• As mentioned above this a ‘0’ polluting bike
i.e. perfect eco-friendly bike.
• We know what is electrolysis i.e. splitting of
H2O into hydrogen and oxygen .
• This bike runs on the reverse process of
electrolysis i.e. fuel cell i.e. (H2 + 2O2) are
combined to form H2O+ electricity.

6. How is this made?
•We are provided with a cell in which we fill
hydrogen gas.
•At starting this hydrogen gas is sent into a
chamber where it reacts with oxygen
present in air. At this time Pd is produced
between two plates .These plates are
connected to dc motor with the help of
wires.
•The dc motor is connected to a tire with
help of a connecting belt.

7. Hence the mechanical energy
generated by dc motor with the
help of electrical energy is
transferred to tires resulting in the
movement of the bike.

8. FUEL CELL CONSTRUCTION
• It consists of a no of platinum-iridium alloy plates which
are perforated in the fuel cell separating the hydrogen
and oxygen.
• There is a collecting chamber in which water gets
collected.
• A dc shunt motor is used which is used to run the wheels.
• Light weight and thin alloy wheels are used to reduce
friction .

9. Advantages:
• Perfect zero pollution.
• Light weight .
• Economical.
• Easy to travel.
• No noise.
• Low maintenance.
• Produces distilled water.
• Once the tank is filled it can run up to 200-300 kms.
• Moves with a good moderate speed of 35-45km/hr.

10. Limitations:
• Difficult to make .
• High cost of production .
• Less no. of hydrogen fuel filling stations.
• Cannot obtain high speeds.
• The reservoir has to be emptied after it gets filled with
water .
