Could Synthetic Fuels Serve As EV Alternatives?

Through the Paris Agreement, the social policy goal of combating climate change, all sectors are committed to significantly reducing their CO2 emissions. The transport sector is meant to reduce its carbon footprint by at least 80 percent compared to 1990, despite a back-stabbing increase in the volume of transport.

Why would you buy an electric car? The insensitive price, long charging time, and inadequate manufacturing of the charging infrastructure illuminate the path for thoughts such as synthetic fuels' consumption.

How are synthetic fuels made? In the first stage, hydrogen is produced from water. Carbon is added to hydrogen to produce a liquid fuel. Upon combining carbon dioxide and hydrogen, synthetic fuel is produced, which can be gasoline, gas, diesel or even kerosene.

Why is it an alternative to electric vehicles?

During the production of synthetic fuel, the carbon added to hydrogen to produce liquid fuel can be recycled from industrial processes or even be captured from the air using filters.

The same carbon used by industrial processes isn't liberated into the air and produces synthetic fuels used by cars and other vehicles. The carbon content given out by the cars is captured from the air and used to produce synthetic fuels once again. This process continues, and synthetic fuels are the product, thereby causing no harm to the environment.

When there is no harm to the environment, synthetic fuels are beneficial to the Automotive Industry and an alternative to the EV.
