Transforming Carbon Waste into Fuel


An excerpt:
 
"...one audacious concept is to recycle the carbon by turning it into liquid hydrocarbon fuels.

Chemical plants, in this vision, could generate liquid hydrocarbons by taking hydrogen from natural gas or even water and combining it with CO2 to make fuels that would cut the demand for crude oil."

We have several times already reported on this potential. There are a number of ways to go about recovering CO2 from the flue gasses of coal-fired power plants and coal-to-liquid fuel refineries - and then converting it into useful products, such as more liquid fuel.
