A rich future for CO2 reuse
There are many applications for the reuse of CO
2, the most common ones outlined in this section. At the heart of the new carbon economy developed by CO
2 Solutions is the idea that the reuse of CO
2 released from stationary sources is the most desirable environmental solution for reducing GHG emissions while transforming the gas into a revenue stream or a cost avoidance.
Applications for CO
2 reuse will see tremendous and sustained growth in the coming years and decades. With far better performance than conventional carbon-capture technologies, CO
2 Solutions’ technology was specifically designed to allow large-scale greenhouse gas emitters to profit from this market in dynamic evolution. There are two forms of CO
2 reuse: direct or with conversion.
CO2 direct reuse
The industrial lung technology provides an on-site capture plant in order to reuse the CO
2 that is being released. This can also reduce or eliminate dependence on external CO
2 suppliers.
CO2 reuse with conversion
Can your company turn its CO
2 emissions into a source of revenue? Can your CO
2 find a nearby taker that results in a commercial transaction that brings you profit? A capture unit on your emissions can turn your waste into a raw material for the receiving company that benefits both parties – the seller reduces their environmental footprint while generating revenues; the buyer can rely on a supply of CO
2 that is reliable, economical and environmentally friendly.
