As a matter of National Security, the USA needs multi-use refineries that are designed to accept and process multiple types of feedstock.

21st Century Hydrocarbon Refinery

When crude oil is selling above $50 per barrel, synthetic fuels made from coal or other non-petroleum sources of hydrocarbon molecules become economically competitive — but only if refineries have the technology to “refine” unconventional hydrocarbons and biomass, in addition to petroleum.
