researches are going on in a similar manner, to seperate oxygen and hydrogen in water and use it as a fuel. i read about it in some magazine.

We are already invented, the fuel from water.i.e. hydro electricity, which does not pollute the atmosphere like pertrol and diesel. We can produce fuel out of water, but we cannot make the water into fuel, as water do not burn.
