When you break apart the carbon molecule you get several things. Energy being the most sought after component. Heat and smoke are also created. The more effeciently we get the energy from the combustion of the carbon molecule, we decrease the amount of the other items (namely smoke). Those early turbines were extremely ineffecient. if we had the same amount of effeciency in our microturbines that was present in those early models they would not even get off the ground.
