An American company has developed a method for producing jet fuel from biogas. In the process, light is used to break the gas down and then rebuild it into aircraft fuel. According to the company, the approach consumes far less energy than traditional methods. The result is a new way of turning a waste-based gas into fuel for planes, with energy use that is much lower than older production techniques.
