Research abstract
The proposed CO2 Harvesting And Mobile Production of Liquid Fuel (CHAMP-Fuel) process will help to reduce the number of fuel supply lines to forward-deployed bases by converting atmospheric CO2 and water into relevant amounts of fuel. Production of the fuel needs for operations on Iraq and Afghanistan via this process would yield daily fuel-cost savings of $23 Million per day, or $7 Billion annually.
