dAIH2Orean R/C Car Runs on Aluminum Beer Can Tabs

by Laura K. Cowan, 04/20/11

filed under: automotive, Green Transportation, Recycled Materials

This radio-controlled car is powered by something a little unusual: aluminum tabs from beer and soda cans. The dAIH2Orean R/C car is a fuel cell that extracts a maximum speed of 18 miles per hour by mixing recycled aluminum, water, and sodium hydroxide to produce hydrogen. The car’s systems run on a closed loop, so the dAIH2Orean R/C car produces zero emissions.
