Why Synthetic Fuel Could Replace Electric Cars

Synthetic fuels are fuels made from water and carbon dioxide from the air. You split the water into hydrogen and oxygen, and combine the oxygen with CO2 to create hydrocarbons. Basically what burning fuel does but in reverse. If the energy used to do this comes from a sustainable source (i.e. wind or solar) you will have net zero emissions, and none of the environmental impact of mining the metals used in batteries. This could effectively make ICE engines better for the environment than EVs.

Synthetic fuels could be a good solution for plugin hybrids too, where you could do much of your shorter trips on just the battery, using hopefully green electricity and for longer trips or if otherwise required you would have that liquid fuel option.
@swankscabinet1625 2 роки тому
I think it’s an ok idea, but the only downside is the electrical plugin. The space required for the battery to do your small trips would be huge compared to doing just a syn fuel car with carbon neutral being the goal.

a hybrid using a bio fuel generator is the best of both worlds. extremely high energy density of liquid fuel, and high performance of an electric motor. In theory it should outperform a current battery EV, and in fact does in some hypercars.

This!! Plug-in-hybrids are the real future. Then have a small turbine generator to run on clean fuels. Why a turbine generator instead of a piston generator? Because a turbine burns much cleaner and is actually quite efficient when it gets to run at the optimum RPM to only charge a battery.

I will not be surprised if it becomes a reality, however from an "unexpected source" to donut fans. The Aviation industry. Efans can not produce thrust of jet-turbines, and that plasma engine that Wuhan Uni wrote about is fantasy vaporware (china's military industry can't even develop 1990's equivalent efficient & reliable low-bypass jet turbines with Afterburners that don't damage the nozzles at full use [Their current engines are reverse-engineered or licensed Russian designs]) how are they going to produce something that produces 6-7 times the heat of current high thrust jet turbines? Once companies like GE, rolls royce and Pratt-whitney finally get the jet turbine to plateau in efficiency (The Rolls-Royce ultrafan is the only design that I'm aware of with a larger than single digit increase in efficiency over current offerings on the market), we will see support for synthetics increase from the aviation industry as ecological requirements tighten and natural oil supplies wane. Without external combustion, modern aviation dies. The only thing that has even come close to producing the same amount of joules per kg is nuclear power via ramjet, which has it's own issues (radiological waste, not as big as most activists make it out to be, and the fan that ramjets require a minimum speed to work).

They can always add odor and flavoring to the e-Fuel. I think they need to do it for safety as they do on other fuels. (to be able to smell if you have a leak) Or just like in the eJuice for the Vapes - for the love of the smell. There are many project on hydrogen cars, the problem with clean hydrogen is that it is highly flammable, even explosive compared to traditional gas.

First off, great video. I just wanted to add something that you guys didn’t really talk about. It’s a process called Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (discovered in the 1920s by German and Dutch scientists... later utilized by the Germans in wwII). Essentially it is Running carbon monoxide and hydrogen feed gas over a catalyst at high temperatures to produce a wide range of clean hydrocarbons with extremely low sulfur counts (as sulfur isn’t a reactant). Research is still being done on the fundamentals of the process but it hasn’t really taken off very well until recently due to the cost of the catalysts (typically Fe, Co, or Ru). Just something I thought y’all at donut might find interesting to look into.

@gmore70 2 роки тому
Its a really cool gap idea. Great thoughtful video. Also add efficiency to reasons why sythentic fuels will not work for the main stream. BEV Cars from electricity generation, through transmission, to the car's battery. Then from the battery to moving the car forward is around 65% to 77% Traditional Internal Combustion engines, just in burning the fuel in the car, are around 25% to 35%. Remember that the next time you fill up... only 25 to 35 cents for every dollar of fuel you purchase actually makes your car move. So before even taking into the loss of energy in creating and transporting of Synthetic Fuels, Synthetic Fuels cant get passed the 75% to 65% energy loss of an ICE Engine. That loss of energy will make synthetic fuels really expensive and unrealistic...outside of F1....
@marcuswelch4515 2 роки тому

The US Navy have been working on the same thing years ago. So I'm glad other companies are working on it. E-fuels also make for ideal storage of energy than batteries. One, fuel doesn't degrade like batteries over operation cycles. Two, it uses existing parts in the market which can make it cheaper and easier to maintain Three, it can make the facility as multi-purpose from providing fuel, electricity and heat. Four, further improvement can also make the system carbon negative. Five, the same system can be used to make other carbon based products like graphene used for nanotubes and such.

As soon as I found out about EV takeover. Depression literally kicked in. Until I hear about this synthetic fuel idea. Hopefully Porsche make a breakthrough.

Replace? I don't think so. Co-Exist? Absolutely. This is what we car enthusiasts have been waiting for

If enthusiast can co-exist beside environmentalist with this technology I'd be happy. But I don't have the money for a Porsche so this needs to go to other brands as well.

I'd prefer that instead of full replacement anyways, more fuel for us gearheads that the normies aren't eating up

@@private6549 Well... You can't DRM fuel.. So if Porsche makes it, every gearhead can use it. The question is more along the lines of "Is Porsche's fuel going to be affordable by the average person?"

Build a station like that here is the States, more specifically, here in Arizona. It's sunny here almost all the time so they could utilize solar.

Hey this here old truck got a woodgassifier running it then started compressing woodgass in propane tanks! Using leftover from saw mill I run my truck for many many years free! 1988 f150 302v8 manual transmission 4x4! Folks use to laugh folks use to poke fun but when a bad storm I have a pto to run a big generator! I hooked up to help keep folks from freezing and warm! All I had to do was light a match and keep her running with wood! I'm not laughed at anymore!
