One of the best things about using hydrogen as a fuel alternative is that the only by-product is water vapor. Throw in that the supply is almost limitless, because it is an element that is generally available anywhere and pretty much evenly distributed around the planet and you have a winner.
Most of the commercially extracted hydrogen comes from fossil fuels, which gleans hydrogen in its purest form from water through electrolysis. Hydrogen fuel cells are where most of the focus is when talking about using it as transportation fuel and production of a truly practical car is still years away. So it became more of a focus to "tweak" the way fuel is managed in conventional gas engines to effectively burn hydrogen.
In order to obtain hydrogen from water you will use a process called electrolysis, which is the separating of water into its basic 1 oxygen atom and 2 hydrogen atoms. Sending an electrical current through the water does this, but since energy cannot be created or destroyed, only altered, the atoms or molecules are simply rearranged into a different state that is the HHO gas, a very efficient and stable burning gas. This electrolysis process does not require a great deal of electricity so it can come from your battery or alternator without causing any problems.
This type of conversion also addresses another issue of safety; it helps in producing hydrogen on demand only when it is needed, not as a constant. This also means that there are fewer pollutants making it environmentally friendly.
