On a planet aspiring to become carbon neutral, the once-stalwart coal power plant is an emerging anachronism. Most nuclear plants around the world today are large light-water reactors, with capacities well over a gigawatt—quite a bit more than typical coal plants. coal plants are planned to shutter by 2035.

A team from the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute, University of Hawaii at Manoa is developing a new one-pot process to produce gasoline-grade (C 6 –C 18 ) hydrocarbon oil from polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB)—an energy storage material formed from renewable feedstock in many bacterial species. Total mass recovery was 94 wt%.

This will result in 321 million fewer tons of carbon emissions in Australia by 2050. The numbers are also lower than they would have been in the original proposal, which would have cut 369 million tons of carbon emissions. This watering-down echoes similar recent developments in both US and EU regulatory schemes.

The plants require substantially less fertilizer than sugarcane, and can be grown in drier areas since they utilize water more efficiently.

The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. To restore balance we must protect the oxygen-producing biomass of Earth and reduce the amount of carbon emissions. But use of petroleum will continue.
