Carbon dioxide for merchant production is the lion’s share of recovery which takes place for the commodity, at least in terms of plants and projects which are readily observed.
Numerous CO2-related organisations and publications provide guidance and govern the aspects surrounding safety in the merchant CO2 industry. The material safety data sheet (MSDS), which is provided by the CO2 suppliers, is quite a comprehensive...
The carbon dioxide (CO2) industry is a complex one. Some companies within the industry both produce and distribute CO2, others buy crude and process it, while others are strictly distributors. The CO2 itself is delivered as crude, gas, liquid, and...
A new geo-engineering concept is being proposed, by a former UK government advisor, for a climate change ‘insurance policy’ to cope with global warming.
Algae are exceptionally gifted chemists and help climate protection. This is because algae take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and sunlight to produce chemicals such as carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids. In special cases they even produce bioethanol, which is a...
Sam Rushing guides us through purity and maintenance protocols
Global Thermostat LLC (GT) (www.global thermostat.com) was formed in 2006 to develop and commercialize a unique technology for the direct capture of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and other sources. The GT process “co-generates” carbon capture with other industrial processes—such as power...
The demand for hydrogen (H2) is rapidly increasing in chemical and petrochemical industries due to the continued growth in demand for low sulfur fuels and to support unconventional oil sands development. Increased demand for hydrogen, while good for the industrial gas...
In the United States today, there are approximately 189 ethanol plants. CryoGas International estimates that about 25 percent of these recover CO2. (See “US Carbon Dioxide Market Report,” on p. 24 of this issue.) Ethanol plant development in the US had been growing steadily...
