There is a tremendous amount of industrial and scientific interest in supercritical CO 2 systems for power generation using all potential heat sources including solar, geothermal, fossil fuel, biofuel and nuclear. The S-CO 2 system is also very compact, meaning that capital costs would be relatively low.

Vulcanol is CRI’s brand name for renewable methanol, produced from CO 2 and hydrogen from renewable sources of electricity (hydro, geothermal, wind and solar). Methanol can be produced from a range of renewable sources and fossil-fuel based feed-stocks; in practice methanol is mainly produced in coal-rich China from coal.

Primary energy sources in model include fossil fuels (crude oil, natural gas, and coal); non-renewable non-fossil sources (nuclear); and renewable sources (hydroelectric, wind, solar, and biomass). These energy sources can be converted to transportation fuels or used for generation of heat, electricity, or both (cogeneration).

Natural gas will play a leading role in reducing greenhouse-gas emissions over the next several decades, largely by replacing older, inefficient coal plants with highly efficient combined-cycle gas generation, according to a major new interim report out from MIT. The first two reports dealt with nuclear power (2003) and coal (2007).

Stuart Licht ( earlier post ) have developed a new process that transforms CO 2 into a controlled selection of nanotubes (CNTs) via molten electrolysis; they call the process C2CNT (CO2 into carbon nanotubes). Pulverized coal is often used as the flame fuel, and fuel is also added to heat and drive the calciner and preheaters.

The project has future applications for supercritical CO2 cycles in power plants, nuclear power, solar power and natural gas combined cycle units. Success will lead to increased operational reliability of the chemical looping technology with impacts for CO2 capture from solid and gaseous fuel conversion.

Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. In the fight against climate change, many countries have pledged to reduce their CO2 emissions to net zero. Almost all hydrogen produced today is designated as brown, black, or gray, meaning it was generated by burning natural gas or coal.

A team led by Professor Jae Sung Lee at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), with colleagues at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), have developed a new pathway for the direct conversion of CO 2 to liquid transportation fuels by reaction with renewable hydrogen produced by solar water splitting.

The S-CO 2 Brayton cycle was proposed as a power conversion system to achieve a compact and lightweight module. In general, increased efficiency represents increased output for the same thermal input, regardless of the thermal source (natural gas, nuclear, solar or coal).

Even if you charge your EV with electricity made from coal fired generators you reduce your car’s pollution by half. If you charge with solar, is way less. In most conversions cost is about the same because of needless weight. We need to stop BURNING fuel in our cars. Batteries last a lot longer now and are recycled.
