Synthetic
fuels
for
transport
can
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
level
of
pollutants
vehicles
emit,
but
are
unlikely
to
have
a
major
impact
on
carbon
emissions
until
synthetic
fuels
made
from
biomass
become
more
widely
available,
they
say.
Synthetic
fuels
can
be
made
from
natural
gas
(gas-to-liquids,
or
GTL),
coal
(CTL)
and
biomass
(BTL).
They
can
be
used
today
in
existing
vehicles.
But
before
they
gain
widespread
traction,
barriers
need
to
be
overcome
in
terms
of
development
and
deployment.
“As
an
alternative
fuel
option,
synthetic
fuels
are
a
compelling
solution,”
