Researchers turn seawater into synthetic fuel

Renewable energies except solar electric or thermal (seeforums dedicated below): wind turbines, energy from the sea, hydraulic and hydroelectricity, biomass, biogas, deep geothermal energy ...

Yes. : Cheesy:

alas electrolysis is only a first step to make hydrogen: the next step to make liquid fuel is a gas plant currently impossible to miniaturize
At first, I think that the storage of hydrogen in tanks in the form of metal hydrides would be easier to achieve on a "small" scale (but not necessarily less expensive).
Le MYRTE Project stored in compressed gas form, but it's really dangerous for an individual ...

Here too, the idea would first be to make a dedicated factory boat, without being forced to keep the space necessary for planes, workshops, crew, ...

I understand better: a nuclear supply ship, capable of producing fuel for an aircraft carrier

putting this gas plant on a separate boat avoids blowing up the aircraft carrier with a problem

in wartime security leaves much to be desired

it's interesting from the point of view "electrolytic techno" ...

BUT as soon as it's shitty electrical energy that powers the electrolyser ....

it smacks of the military project ... making fuel anywhere from seawater and a nuclear source to put "green" hydrocarbons in military devices ...

Still have to pump 10 liters of seawater to recover
1 kg of bicarbonate!

this nuclear fuel generator will not have anything green ... it will simply bomb better from the aircraft carrier

fuel economy will transport more bombs

and even solar missiles : Mrgreen: ... uh ... ground-to-air
