CO2-based Fuels

CO2-based fuels are synthetic fuels produced by capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere or industrial sources and combining it with hydrogen to create liquid fuels like synthetic gasoline, diesel, or jet fuel. This process helps reduce net carbon emissions, as the CO2 used can be recycled, potentially making these fuels carbon-neutral if renewable energy powers the hydrogen production. They serve as an alternative to fossil fuels, offering a way to utilize existing fuel infrastructure while lowering the carbon footprint associated with transportation and energy sectors.
