Re:Using copper to convert CO₂ to methane by adastra22 on Sunday July 07, 2024 @06:10PM (#40900870)
Methane is also known as "natural gas," the thing which burns in your range stovetop or powers your water heater. When liquified it is known as Liquid Natural Gas or LNG. You may have heard of that.

In general, starting from methane you can then work your way up to all sorts of various hydrocarbons like gasoline or jet fuel.

Methane is also the propellant of SpaceX's Starship. If they launch as frequently as they want to launch, Elon will likely invest in local zero-carbon production of methane using techniques like the OP.
