Petrol from Air

Many would be wondering after seeing the title but it is actually true...British Engineers have actually come up with a technology which can actually produce Petrol Just by using Air and Electricity.The 'petrol form air' technology involves taking sodium hydroxide and mixing it with carbon dioxide  before 'electrolysing' the sodium carbonate it produces to form pure carbon dioxide. Hydrogen is then produced by electrolysing water vapour captured with a dehumidifier. The company , Air Fuel Syndication uses the carbon dioxide and hydrogen to produce methanol which in turn is passed through a gasoline fuel reactor, creating Petrol. This synthetic petrol produced can be used a fuel for running automobiles and various other purposes.
