None of the things goes waste in the world and the latest findings of scientists prove this to be true. Scientists have made an aluminum nanopowder that will turn urine into hydrogen immediately, which can be used to provide fuel to the fuel cell and to provide clean energy. The researchers also include a scientist of Indian origin. 

The scientists of the US Army Research Laboratory (ARL) first announced that their nano-galvanic aluminum powder could produce pure hydrogen when exposed to water. The researchers mixed their powder into a fluid containing water and made similar chemical reactions. They found that mixing Urine in this powder produces hydrogen at a higher rate than generating normal water.

ARL researcher Christopher Darling said, "As an Army scientist, our work is to develop such materials and techniques that give directly to the soldiers and their capabilities increase. We developed a technique that would quickly create hydrogen with water. The hydrogen found in abundance in the universe has the potential to give energy to fuel-powered cells and to provide energy to soldiers in the future."

Researchers said that fuel cells generate electricity without pollution. They said that fuel cells are more energy intensive than the combustion engine and hydrogen used to give them energy can be generated from different sources.
