This study explores a closed-loop system that integrates seawater electrolysis with direct air capture (DAC) for the sustainable production of carbon-neutral fuels. By harnessing renewable energy, hydrogen is generated from seawater, while carbon dioxide is extracted directly from the atmosphere. These feedstocks are subsequently utilized in catalytic processes, such as methanol synthesis, the Sabatier reaction, and Fischer–Tropsch synthesis, to produce a range of valuable hydrocarbon fuels.
