Petrol, a mixture of C 4 –C 12 short-chain hydrocarbons (SCHCs), is a liquid fuel primarily used in internal combustion engines. Although short-chain alcohols were produced to substitute for petrol, they are inferior to petrol in their fuel properties. Here we report the development of engineered E.
