The TCEP would integrate coal gasification, combined-cycle power generation, CO 2 capture, and. We now have sales commitments in place for all three of TCEP’s main commercial products—electric power, urea for fertilizer, and CO 2 for enhanced oil recovery—and that is obviously key to getting this project underway.

Scientists at ETH Zürich and oil and gas company Total have developed a new catalyst that efficiently converts CO 2 and hydrogen directly into methanol. The CO 2 may be extracted from the atmosphere or—more simply and efficiently—from the exhaust discharged by combustion power plants.

Over the succeeding months, the project teams have performed experiments on novel concepts and produced preliminary designs for pilot plants to study the feasibility of capturing and using CO 2 exhausted from industrial processes. The project team plans to process CO 2 -laden flue gas from a Capital Aggregates, Ltd. Alcoa, Inc.

Soot—black and brown particles that absorb solar radiation—comes from two types of sources: fossil fuels such as diesel, coal, gasoline, jet fuel; and solid biofuels such as wood, manure, dung, and other solid biomass used for home heating and cooking around the world. Particle traps filter out soot particles from exhaust fumes.
