Investment and production costs of synthetic fuels - A literature survey

Guillaume Boissonnet, Emanuela Peduzzi

Synthetic fuels, or synfuels, can be produced from gas, coal and biomass. The conversion of gas and coal is well established but lignocellulosic biomass conversion is slow to develop. This paper addresses the issue of the production cost of second generati ...
