Energy Bangla - Producing Diesel from Natural Gas or Coal - A magical technology for Bangladesh
The wording of this Bangladesh article might seem awkward to US readers, but the meaning should be quite clear:
"Producing Diesel from Natural Gas or Coal - A magical technology for Bangladesh
It may sound something from the science fiction movies but it is a reality. Natural gas or coal can be commercially converted into liquid diesel oil and other valuable products. The synthesized diesel can run vehicles on the road or produce electricity in the power plant just like traditional petroleum diesel.
The technology will allow Bangladesh to successfully produce diesel oil utilizing own natural resources. So, the country will not need to import crude oil. Hence the technology offers dual benefit for Bangladesh. Firstly it saves a huge amount of hardly earned foreign currency. Secondly, it will make a pathway to utilize the natural gas and coal reserves of Bangladesh which is at present not utilized properly."
As different as Bangladesh might be from the United States, what's true there is true here: CoalTL would save "a huge amount of ... currency" and "utilize ... coal ... which is ... not utilized properly". CTL would be "A magical technology for" West Virginia, for the United States of America, just as it is, and has been, as we have fully demonstrated and documented, a scientific and practical reality elsewhere in the world.
Pretend that pen in your hand is a wand, and make some magic happen.
