If they get some traction, it might be interesting. It reminded me of another project which I have almost forgotten about. David Doty is a respected name in a narrow circle of nuclear magnetic resonance scientists for the hardware that his company builds [1]. At some point about a quarter century ago, he became obsessed with what he saw as an impending energy crisis, and started to look precisely into the technical nuances and economics of Fischer-Tropsch process. It seemed like a potential solution to turn excess of renewable energy into an energy-dense liquid fuel, which could then be distributed using the already existing infrastructure. Doty was always exceptionally meticulous in anything he did, and so he went with a fine comb to find and eliminate inefficiencies in the fuel synthesis process, wherever it was physically possible. He funded a small team working on this, and they came up with some improvements [2] which they have patented, presented at conferences, etc. But despite all this work the economics of the process was still not favorable.
