CO2 Capture for Commercial Use

05/14/2007 9:55 AM

Does anyone know of any proven technology that can be used to extract and capture carbon dioxide for future commercial use? I am working with a client that needs CO2 for his greenhouse and buys it now. The client is installing a wood waste fired boiler and would like to extract the CO2 from the exhaust gas and then use it for the greenhouse instead of buying it. There is also the opportunity to sell the captured CO2 to other end users and I am finding it difficult to locate suppliers of equipment that can do this. There are a lot of scrubbing systems out there but we need to extract and capture CO2 in a clean, reusable state.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

Mike

Thanks, follow up question is: Who are the leaders in supplying fractional distillation systems for CO2 capture? I am trying to find out who I can call to supply the system for a wood waste cogeneration plan.

What was British oxygen here in the UK I don't know about state side. Try one of the trade books. Do you have (Yellow or White pages)? Google for Fractional distillation?

You might also consider fungi [ mushroom ] production as a co-product.

the exchange of gasses is the oposite of green plants

mushroom houses have to remove the co2
