Resulting gases are passed over catalysts, causing reactions that separate oxygen from carbon molecules, making the carbon molecules high in energy content, similar to gasoline molecules. This break-even crude oil price compares favorably with the literature estimated prices of fuels from alternate biochemical and thermochemical routes.

Alternative fuels must make economic sense, the researchers stress, for biofuels to make a dent in the petroleum-driven market. We have the environmental incentives to produce fuels and chemicals from renewable resources, but right now, they aren’t enough to compete with low oil prices. Chang Dou/University of Washington.
