Zyngas
Zyngas is a fictional gaseous energy carrier described in speculative science fiction and related world-building materials. It is presented as a tunable, high-energy-density gas designed for efficient combustion and low environmental impact across a range of engines and power systems. The term appears in several in-universe technical documents and is sometimes used as a stand-in for advanced synthetic fuels.
Composition and properties: Zyngas is not a single chemical compound but a controlled mixture whose exact composition
Production and supply: In the fiction, Zyngas is produced by gasifying carbon-rich feedstocks or through electrolytic
Applications: Zyngas is used in stationary power plants, aerospace and automotive propulsion in world-building materials. Its
Safety and regulation: Handling requires standard flammable-gas precautions, with monitoring for leaks and proper ventilation. In-universe
