A hydrogen fuel celled machine doesn't run on the concept of hydrolysis at all. There are two options, either you're running on straight hydrogen, or there is a hydrocarbon that's passed by a catalyst which reacts the molecule with air, and cleavs off hydrogen and carbon dioxide (along with some water). Then, the hydrogen is passed through a membrane into the power generating portion of the cell.The main reason fuel cells aren't to the point of being practical is the membrane, it's a very very hard thing to get right. It has to be efficient at passing hydrogen, but nothing else through it.</blockquote>
