Question

Best molecules for oxidation into fuels?

Answer 1

In the biological process, one of the important fuel molecules is sugars. Glucose is the most common molecule used as fuel. Complex molecules break down into simple molecules such as glucose which is used as fuel to keep the cells functioning.Glucose is finally broken down into carbondioxide by two processes known as glycolysis and Krebs cycle.

For chemical processes such as conversion of various molecules into fuels in different fields such as cheap catalysts such as copper oxide are developed which can convert carbondioxide and sunlight into fuels.
