Hydrogen fuel enhancement is the process of using a mixture of hydrogen and conventional hydrocarbon fuel in an internal combustion engine, typically in a car or truck, in an attempt to improve fuel economy, power output, or both. Methods include hydrogen produced through electrolysis, storing hydrogen on a vehicle as a secondary fuel, or reforming conventional fuel into hydrogen. An aqua silencer is an attempt in this direction; it mainly deals with controlling emissions and noise. An aqua silencer has to be attached to the engine exhaust. The sound produced under water is less hearable than it is made in the atmosphere. This is mainly because of small sprockets in water molecules, which lowers its amplitude thus, lowers the sound level because of this property water is used in silencers and its name is AQUA SILENCER. The noise and smoke levels are considerably less than the conventional silencer, it is cheaper, does not need a catalytic converter, and is easy to install.
