Fuel from … air

Air Fuel Synthesis produced 5 liters of fuel with August when she launched a small installation for production liquid fuel from carbon dioxide and water vapor. Company hopes that in two years she will be able to build a larger a plant capable of producing a ton of fuel per day. Although the process while in the early stages and needs electricity from national network, the company believes that in the end it will be possible use the power of renewable wind sources power plants or tidal dams. “We took carbon dioxide from air and hydrogen from water and turned these elements into fuel. No one does anything like this in our country or for her limits, as far as we know, – said the head of the company Peter Harrison. – Our fuel is able to work in existing engines. This means that existing transport infrastructure. “Recall that the developers alternative fuels previously created it from human feces, from chicken fat and pork fat, from waste agriculture, as well as from the waste of cafes and restaurants and from waste in the production of whiskey, from algae, from wine, from ordinary Russian straw and from Chinese straw, from wood mushrooms, from oranges and from sunflower oil. In addition, electricity is like scientists extracted fuel from cacti, from fruit juices, from Coca-Cola, from spinach, and of water and hydrogen, of course, too. IN 2008, the fuel from the water was created by the Indonesian Joko Suprarto, however, he was later declared a charlatan. His invention of Blue Energy, allegedly made on the basis of water, when tested in state technology agency turned out to be ordinary diesel fuel. But Suprarto stated that this is precisely what confirms that his fuel from water is real, and he created it by electrolysis, releasing hydrogen from the oxygen in the water, and then converting it to synthetic fuel. However current British fuel from the air, according to scientists, is really can change the natural and economic landscape of the world, notes InoPressa. Initially supposed to be innovative mix fuel with conventional. Technology is also perfect for remote areas that have sufficient sources renewable energy but limited opportunities for their storage. Although the prototype system is designed to highlight carbon dioxide from the air, this part of the process is still too inefficient in terms of commercial use. However Professor Klaus Luckner of Columbia University of New York notes that the high cost of any new technology is always with time is drastically reduced.
