“…E-methane can be used not only in ordinary automotive engines but also in rocket engines. However, as a fuel, it requires a high ignition energy and has a long ignition response time . To address this issue, Ruilei Yang et al increased the methane cracking rate from 1.9% to 8% by increasing the excitation voltage and frequency.…”

“…However, as a fuel, it requires a high ignition energy and has a long ignition response time. 170 To address this issue, Ruilei Yang et al increased the methane cracking rate from 1.9% to 8% by increasing the excitation voltage and frequency. The reaction mechanism is shown in Table 2: the researchers pointed out that methane is reformed into ethane and propane through a chain reaction from R1 to R6, accompanied by a dehydrogenation process.…”

With the introduction of the EU's "ban on combustion" proposal in 2035, the sale of new fossil fuel vehicles will soon be comprehensively prohibited. The use of e-fuels has become the best means for the survival and continuation of internal combustion engines, while also responding to the call for carbon neutrality. This review studies how the raw materials required for different e-fuels can be obtained through the assistance of renewable energy or various net-zero carbon emission routes, and elaborates on the synthesis methods, economics, and challenges faced by e-fuels such as e-methanol and e-ammonia. E-fuels have a wide range of market applications, including but not limited to road transportation, aviation, and shipping, and some transportation vehicles have already chosen e-fuels as their fuel. By summarizing the technoeconomic analysis of e-fuels, this review aims to provide referable methods and multiple options for the future large-scale production of e-fuels, as well as insights for the subsequent application and improvement of e-fuels.
