Without curiosity, humans would simply not have developed and without curiosity now we will remain stuck in our industrial greenhouse..In my curiosity, I decided I wanted to know the answer to a simple question.
Having been involved a little in a project to look at the production of carbon-neutral synthetic aviation fuel and conversations about the replacement of coal-fired power stations with small nuclear energy generation; I wanted to know how many small nuclear plants it would take to replace the totality of aviation fuel.Given that it seems that using agricultural biofuels is a cul-de-sac; I imagined all the synthetic fuel being fixed from CO2 in the atmosphere.. Now I am aware that my calculations may be wrong, I used good, referenced papers and information, but I can make mistakes.The answer I came to was, at first, shocking.
Data suggests that the demand for Kerosene within 10 years will be 100 billion Gallons per year.To produce this amount of synthetic Kerosine from CO2 will need approx.
With the output of a small nuclear plant being about 1.4x10.
Mj you would need about 800 plants..The division of fabrication and assembly tasks has been carefully considered to maximise the efficiency of both factory prefabrication and on-site assembly.
