Genecks Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Do you think it would be possible to hybridize bacteria with an engine so that it constantly can use NO2 for the engine and cool down the engine, thus allowing a faster, more efficient automobile?

CharonY Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 How is that supposed to work? And what do you mean with nitrogenous? Nitrogen fixing (N2 to NH3)? Or Nitrate reducing (NO3- to NO2-). And how to do you propose to use it for an engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharonY Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Well, that would be the short answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genecks Posted May 25, 2010 Author Share Posted May 25, 2010 (edited) My idea is testing if there would be a way to get bacteria to gather air and form N2O. Let's say they gather air and then make some N20, then they expel that and route it to the engine. Or perhaps there would be a way to get them to transfer that stuff to a tank/cannister under the vehicle; that way it continually builds up a supply until the person needs it.
