Yet another blow to the green-industrial complex.
Phys.org (2/10/22) reports: "Matteo Cargnello, a chemical engineer at Stanford University, is working to turn [captured carbon dioxide] into other useful chemicals, such as propane, butane or other hydrocarbon fuels that are made up of long chains of carbon and hydrogen. 'We can create gasoline, basically,' said Cargnello, who is an assistant professor of chemical engineering. 'To capture as much carbon as possible, you want the longest chain hydrocarbons. Chains with eight to 12 carbon atoms would be the ideal.' A new catalyst, invented by Cargnello and colleagues, moves toward this goal by increasing the production of long-chain hydrocarbons in chemical reactions."

"U.S. LNG will be even more important if Russia invades Ukraine, and Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline to Germany dies, as President Biden has promised. The U.S. anti-fossil fuel left is Mr. Putin’s best friend."
