What Happens When Hydrogen Burns By: Todd Ash | - Hydrogen burns readily in presence of oxygen, releasing considerable energy as heat and producing only water as exhaust.
When hydrogen burns in air (which is mostly nitrogen), some oxides of nitrogen (NOx, contributors to smog and acid rain) can be formed, but much fewer pollutants are formed than when normal hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline and diesel are burned. Because no carbon is involved, using hydrogen fuel does not contribute to global warming.
