摘要:
A cryogenic method for capturing carbon dioxide in the gaseous emissions produced from the fossil-energy combustion of solid, liquid, or gaseous fossil fuels in a power generation installation employing an OxyFuel mode of combustion. The method includes: producing essentially pure carbon dioxide under elevated pressure and at near ambient temperatures in a Carbon-Dioxide Capture Component from the carbon-dioxide content of at least a part of the gaseous emissions produced from fossil-energy fueled combustion in the Oxyfuel mode of combustion; separating atmospheric air in an Air Separation Component into a stream of liquid nitrogen and a stream of high-purity oxygen; supplying low temperature, compressed purified air to a cryogenic air separation unit (cold box) within the Air Separation Component; collecting low temperature thermal energy from coolers employed within the Carbon-Dioxide Capture Component and the Air Separation Component; and converting the collected thermal energy to electricity within a Thermal-Energy Conversion Component.
摘要:
A method for cultivating and processing microalgae includes directing a continuous supply of carbon dioxide into an enclosed photobioreactor containing microalgae. The enclosed photobioreactor is exposed to insolation for the cultivation of the microalgae by means of controlled photosynthesis chemical reactions. The microalgae are cultivated and the microalgae are processed to create an algae biomass and a gaseous mixture. The algae biomass is extracted to produce an essentially pure algae oil and oil free algae biomass. The gaseous mixture is separated into unreacted carbon dioxide and oxygen. The separated unreacted carbon dioxide is recycled to the photobioreactor and the oxygen in excess of export quantity is stored.
