Advanced technologies for the recovery, disposal, and reuse of carbon dioxide for atmospheric control

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5861395
Several technologies for controlling CO/sub 2/ content in the atmosphere, which may be useful in mitigating the possible CO global greenhouse effect are examined. These relate to recovery of CO/sub 2/ from the atmosphere, removal of CO/sub 2/ from fossil fuel burning plants, the disposal of CO/sub 2/ in the ocean and in depleted wells and salt domes, and the use of CO/sub 2/ for the production of synthetic fuels. Evaluation of some of these systems are presented in terms of energy costs.
