Diesel from Natural Gas
Make this happen faster.
Why can't we have this in the states? http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/science....ap/index.html |
Quatar is a country with no crude oil in the ground, just natural gas, so they have a big interest in this. Only if crude oil stays at todays high prices and goes higher, will GTL be competitive for fuels.
GTL is about a lot more than just diesel fuel. You can build up any paraffinic hydrocarbon molecule using this process. Synthetic motor oil may cost a fraction of what it does today using GTL techlology. In the US, methanol is the clean-burning fuel made from natural gas. Some diesel buses in LA now run on methanol.

it would be taking away the exhaust smell and black smoke, 2 of the 3 main reasons i like diesels in the first place! as long as the engine sound doesn't go.
