Hydrogenated Pyrolysis may be useful in several ways.
The gasoline become as an energy carrier for fusion energy.
There are to problems how can be solved, waste problem and the replacement of oil.
This sounds better than the present use of ethanol/methanol from this energy crops.
Ethanol energy comes from sun and is already stored in the organic waist.
From that I hear so do a car driven from ethanol made from energy crops, consume an amount of crop how is growing on corresponding area the car drive over.
If this is the case may western cars will compete with third world people of the food.
This may be avoiding if we can use fusion to make the fuel from waste and smaller volumes of crop.
There may be lots of organic waste to use. We have lots of organic waste from paper industry and sewer water how is a big problem. This can be turned in to a resource. Garbage is now burn for house heating. Should it not be better to drive cars on it and heat houses from fusion electricity?
This may also reduce fusion resistant from oil companies how can use parts of there old infra structure.
But this will also conserve some problem from the fossil fuel era.
Some of the cars pollution problems remains, (NOx, hydro carbons, oil spill).
The largest danger may be if they are making fuel from coal. This is already in the plans for counter the oil turn pike. South Africa and China have advanced planes for making gas from coal in (HTR) high temperature (fission) reactors. In this way fusion oil may continue the CO2 emission.
