What is better for fossil fuel economics?

This could halve decrease the global market of oil and gas for transport, and collapse exporters’ economics…but save global environment and money and health of consumers.

 Nevertheless, no one of NG/oil exporters agree to clean it for such purpose and to dig his own grave, but it can be made by importers, even if they would need  at first to gasify LNG and then after purification to liquefy it again for further transportation for consumers. Such transformation is not so expensive, consuming relatively negligible parts of the LNG.   

I wrote (see “Vehicles’ fueling by reformed hydrocarbons”, posted 20.12.2020 in https://judbarovski.blogspot.com/2020/12 ):

“The purified NG/liquid hydrocarbons is reformed by the water steam in excess quantity and at high temperature creating a gaseous mix of hydrogen and carbon dioxide in moles ratio of 4:1 directly on-board of a vehicle.

The said steam reforming is endothermic and consumes about 210 Joules/mol.

The said carbon dioxide is poisoning the most types of fuel cells, and has to be divided from hydrogen, e.g. to reform in “dry ice”, i.e. a solid form of the carbon dioxide. It consumes negligible another 25 Joules

The said hydrogen is fueling an air-hydrogen fuel cell to produce electricity in quantity about 4 * 286 * 0.67 = 770 Joules for NG, and 575 Joules for oil, moving the vehicle with energy efficiency about 45 % vs. about 23% for ICE and 30% for hybrid
