Carbon dioxide emission rates for conventional and synthetic fuels
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared CO 2 emission rates in kgC/10 9 joules for a variety of conventional or synthetic fuel processes and found that the total CO 2 release per joule is on the order of 1.8 (± 0.2) times as much for burning liquid fuels from coal as for liquid fuel from crude oil, although the results are subject to changes in boundary conditions of resource availability, plant location, environmental requirements, output slate desired, economics, etc.
