A team has proven concentrated light, heat and high pressures can drive the one-step conversion of carbon dioxide and water directly into useable liquid hydrocarbon fuels. This simple, inexpensive new sustainable fuels technology could potentially help limit global warming. The process also reverts oxygen back into the system as a byproduct of the reaction, with a clear positive environmental impact.
“Our process also has an important advantage over battery or gaseous-hydrogen powered vehicle technologies as many of the hydrocarbon products from our reaction are exactly what we use in cars, trucks and planes, so there would be no need to change the current fuel distribution s...
