These are always cute stories. Until one gets into the details.

"While the proposed work of the company sounds exciting and futuristic, I highly suspect the feasibility of this concept in the real world considering how vague the disclosed technical details are."

Water doesn't burn. That's a thermodynamic fact. There is no conspiracy that's preventing this from becoming a product. But I bet the "inventor" is looking for investors.

Not everyone's a scientist, but there's an old saying - if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

But one of its components does and the other accelerates that burn.

Steam engines run just fine on water and fuel source. Alcohol burns and can be used to make steam.

"MayMaan is seeking additional partners to make its impact on the world" - those who believe this article should invest while it's still in "stealth mode". It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity I tell yah - give them your life's savings and you'll be fabulously rich in 5 years!

They don't explain much (not an accident I am sure), but this isn't a steam engine. They claim they have some hocus-pocus that converts 70/30 water/alcohol blend to a "clean-burning fuel, which powers the engine, and which produces a very high torque".

I understand they have another process that's "still in stealth mode" that converts lead into gold. And they're looking for aggressive investors who can see the enormous potential of that project too.
