Researchers from SRI International (SRI) are developing a methane-and-coal-to-liquids process that consumes negligible amounts of water and does not generate carbon dioxide. The syngas is converted into methanol, which is then processed to make transportation fuels—in the case of the DARPA challenge, JP-8 (military distillate fuel).
