CO2 can be converted into a range of liquid fuels that are drop-in substitutes to currently used fuels.
Pathways for CO2 to liquid hydrocarbon fuels typically combine CO2 and hydrogen in a thermochemical process using select catalysts.
Using this pathway, CO2 can also be converted to gasoline.
Conversion of CO2 to gasoline enables one to convert a “problem” into a “solution” as the CO2 emissions from power plants and a range of industrial activities can now be used to sustainably produce liquid fuels. Depending on the source of CO2, such fuels can be net-zero-carbon or in some cases even carbon negative (if the CO2 emissions are from a biomass power plant for instance).
