…have evaluated electro-fuels, green methanol, sustainable aviation fuels, hydrogen trucks, again finding CO2 abatement costs above $1,000/ton. Again, we think transportation can be decarbonized cost-effectively via other means. (3) How…
…improve agricultural yields by c30% (note here). Some chemical pathways use CO2 directly, making methanol, formaldehyde and polyurethanes. The CO2 molecule can also be electrolysed to produce other feedstocks, but…
…production, which starts via naphtha cracking. We have also assessed the economics of Eastman’s methanolysis technology, which dissolves polyesters in ethylene glycol and dimethyl terephthalate, then uses 200ºC methanol at…
…components that are locked up with patents. Future variants of BrightLoop are also suggested by the patents, which could produce both CO and H2, for clean methanol or Fischer-Tropsch fuels….
