Best diet for the heart is an appropriate balance of saturated, and polyunsaturated and monosaturated. When coconut oil is hydrogenated, it becomes a trans fat. Electricity and carbon dioxide used to generate alternative fuel. Method for converting carbon dioxide into liquid fuel isobutanol using electricity. Chemical batteries, hydraulic pumping, and water splitting suffer from low energy density storage or incompatibility with current transportation infrastructure. Storing electrical energy as chemical energy in higher alcohols, which can be used as liquid transportation fuels. Store electricity with lithium ion batteries, but now, they use liquid fuel. Use it as transportation fuel without needed to change current infrastructure.
