Oil from coal and gasSynthetic fuel can be made from coal, or from gas but the processes areexpensive and not usually used. There are many processes, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_fuel The most normal processes are the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, and the Mobil process. See diag. They can make liquid fuel from any partially burned organic material. |

A new process has been developed to convert the syn gas to dimethylether (DME) as the preceding step to hydrocarbon. |
