Mechanical "cutting" of long hydrocarbon chains
I seem to remember a machine that actually "cut" motor oil into shorter HC
chains to test motor oil longevity. Would it be possible to mechanically
crack HCs into fuel on a large scale? How about pressing HCs through
rollers so precise that they would actually crush molecules to do the job?
The trouble I see would be that people would start disappearing into fuel
tanks, chubby people would be the first to go.
