Car ride on carbon dioxide
Saturation of the Earth’s atmosphere with greenhouse gases is one of the causes of ongoing climate warming. An increase in temperature will lead to an increase in sea level, flooding of significant land areas, and an increase in winds, precipitation, hurricanes and floods.
An unusual consequence of climate warming could be the beginning of a new small ice age in Europe and severe drought in other regions of the planet, which will cause serious damage to agriculture.
They are trying to combat greenhouse gases by reducing the amount of industrial emissions and reducing the exhaust emissions of millions of cars. but this is not enough. Environmentalists argue that it is necessary to begin to extract carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere on an industrial scale.
At present, a pilot plant of Carbon Energy (CE) has been operating quite successfully in Canada for several years. He uses technology called direct air capture for direct capture and purification of air. Earlier, a similar Zurich air purification project was launched by Climeworks, a company that learned how to turn extracted carbon dioxide into stone. But the price per ton of the final product among the Swiss was high, it could reach from five hundred to a thousand dollars. Canadians were able to optimize the technology, reducing the price to 95-250 dollars
The Carbon Energy installation first turns the captured greenhouse gas into a kind of stone, and then transforms it into a gas purified from impurities. The Canadian Air To Fuels technology, through which the cleaning product can be turned into fuel for modern cars, is of great interest.
