Process for Producing Synthetic Liquid Hydrocarbon

Summary

Purdue University researchers have developed a method to synthesize liquid hydrocarbon fuels using biomass and a carbon-free energy source. This process converts a larger amount of carbon in a biomass to hydrocarbon fuel than existing methods. Because of the increased efficiency in the carbon conversion, less land area is needed to produce the feedstock.
