The production costs for most chemicals via microbial fermentation are currently high compared to oil-derived products primarily because of operating costs associated with feedstock and feedstock processing. They can take carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas and turn them into chemicals such as acetone, butanol or ethanol. Jones, Alan G.

Using catalysts and heat, hydroprocessing removes oxygen, adds hydrogen and rearranges carbon molecules to create a drop-in petroleum substitute that requires no engine modifications in a 50% blend.

Without strong climate policy, one might expect production of unconventional hydrocarbon fuels to increase dramatically in the coming decades as supplies of conventional oil become gradually tighter. A growing supply of unconventional transportation fuels would tend to moderate oil prices and would drive up emissions on a life cycle basis.
