You will need power to drive the synthesis. The only source that would be logical is nuclear.
This synthesis would only be usefull in making fuel for the aircraft. To power the ship nuclear powered steam electric turbines would be used.
In accordance with the laws of thermodynamics, “AINT NOTHING FEE.”
Either (1) Late April Fools or (2) some variation on algae, but now it can be grown in seawater.
Small fillip of encouraging news for our defense establishment, severely weakened by Obama’s drawdowns and foreign policy incompetence, the entry into our armed forces of open homosexuals, and the forced placement of women on submarines and ships at sea.
No doubt it will allow us to sail farther and cheaper, so that we can economically surrender to Putin and the Chinese.
Somebody is terribly confused. CO2 is already fully oxidized and has no energy left to extract, and hydrogen can only be produced from water by an investment of energy. This could be a way of producing jet fuel on aircraft carriers that have nuclear power to produce hydrogen, but I don’t see how a conventionally powered ship could use this process.
ALL of our submarines are nuclear powered, not “some”, as this author states.
