Reducing liquid fuels consumption by 50 + % could have to same results and more while redcuing associated pollution.

California is investing in solar and wind farms, but outsources a great deal of its electrical production (to «large» hydropower that the state officially does not recognize as «renewable»; and to fossil fuel)-- and Californians show little inclination to reduce their liquid fuel consumption.

Effective Strategies for Reducing Carbon Monoxide into Liquid Fuels By Copper Catalysts L. Wang, S. A. Nitopi, M. Orazov, C. Morales - Guio, C. Hahn, and T. F. Jaramillo

Researchers at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science led by Dr. James Liao have developed a more efficient way to turn methanol into useful chemicals, such as liquid fuels, and that would also reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

Although liquid LPG injection generally produces more power, Holden justified vapour injection on the grounds of lower fuel consumption, lower CO2 emissions, reduced pumping and parasitic losses, and start - up reliability in hot weather.

Reducing CO2 to liquid fuel may well be worth doing (it's certainly worth researching), but whether it makes sense in the larger picture needs to be discussed.

Oxidation of hydrocarbon to CO2 releases about 478 kJ / mol C. That's the minimum amount you need to reduce CO2 to liquid fuel assuming perfect conversion.

Nor does it apparently intend to directly, materially * reduce * the CO2 in the atmosphere (i.e. the reason for «creating» liquid hydrocarbon fuels would primarily be for transportation, so burning them would re-release the CO2, uncaptured, back into the atmosphere).

But photosynthesis is only a few percents efficient (often just 1 %), and then the refining process to harvest the crops and then extract their sugars and turn them into liquid fuel further reduces efficiency.

It is now necessary to start reducing the cost of liquid fuels with their production from coal.

Over the longer term, a larger and more liquid LNG market can compensate for reduced flexibility elsewhere in the energy system (for example, lower fuel - switching capacity in some countries as coal - fired generation is retired).

The bulky heavy tank and reduced range are not attractive, so liquid fuels with the same infrastructure range and convenience make more sense.

Bullfrog Power's green fuel is an earth - friendly, renewable alternative to liquid fossil fuel, allowing climate - conscious Canadians to reduce the environmental impact of their transportation.

Achieving 100 % renewable «total energy» — for power, transport and heat — will require us to reduce unsustainable demand (overconsumption), as well as increasing energy efficiency, and shifting our transport and heating systems from liquid and gas fuels to electrical power.

Most studies project that second - generation liquid biofuels from perennial crops and woody and agricultural residues could dramatically reduce life cycle greenhouse gas emissions relative to petroleum fuels.

With a tech that runs on liquid fuels, the only opportunity to reduce carbon emissions is at the end of the lifecycle, when it is replaced.
