The Fischer-Tropsch process (or Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis) can make oil from coal, trash, wood, sewage. crop waste.
why do people make a big thing out of a new process when the Fischer-Tropsch process has been around since before WW2(1920s) and the Germans use it to
make there air craft fuel during WW2.
The Fischer-Tropsch process can also make hydrogen as a by product.

The real problem is getting the plants built to turn all the trash in the US into oil instead of burying it or burning it.
