And some go for pure chemistry, breaking the cellulose down into a gaseous mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide before building it back up into something more useful.

也有的是纯粹的化学，将纤维素分解成一种氢和碳的气体混合物，然后再将其合成更为有用的东西。

Hydrogen and carbon monoxide can then be blended into syngas, a replacement for current hydrocarbon-based combustibles like gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.

氢气和一氧化碳混合能够合成一种混合气体，可以用来替代当前普遍使用的烃基燃料，比如汽油、柴油以及喷气机燃油等。

That produces hydrogen and carbon monoxide, which can be converted to a liquid fuel.

其产物是氢气和一氧化碳，并可以进一步转化为液体燃料。

The carbon combines with the hydrogen in water to make carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas--the old "town gas"--but then the catalyst prompts a rejiggering of the atoms into methane (one carbon atom attached to four hydrogen atoms).

The process, which converts a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide to liquid fuels, and was discovered by German scientists.

The highly reactive oxygen combines with hydrogen and carbon monoxide on the fuel side to make water and CO 2.
