RIT scientist shines laser light on methane in pursuit of clean fuel
Date:10/22/2009

ources and is a byproduct of wetlands, wildfires, permafrost, landfills, agricultural applications, coal mining, stationary and mobile combustion, wastewater treatment and certain industrial processes.

"Unfortunately, almost half of the proven reserve of methane is 'stranded,'" Dube says. "Access to the natural gas is effectively blocked by terrain and the economies of converting natural gas to liquid for efficient transport. A compact, high-gain process is needed that would convert methane gas to a room temperature liquid, such as diesel, and be sufficiently portable to enable access to stranded gas."
