Abstract

New way of thinking is here. How to change C02 from a waste gas into a productive resource that provides bio-fuels or cattle fodder etc As a refractory mason and design engineer albeit a tad rusty due to retirement non the less the process of dealing with fumes from furnace operation is still easily recalled as one worked with others building literally hundreds of metre of them. There are no reason not to build a coal fired power station next to or as near as what is most practical to a coal mine, pertinent to energy distribution with least loss due to relevant distances from various outlets some where near the Adani or any coal source that is being exported. It makes no practical or in any way scientific climate or economic or even political sense not to do so. All of the above is easy to calculate, is also easy to imagine is how the expanded hot gases from the furnace are controlled and distributed. Which can be done in a lab or any appropriate location although the drawings would be enough to allow any one that understood ignition combustion and gas distribution [I do know Australia's premier expert in combustion] to be able to prove if the idea of Bio sequstration of C02 into plant based resources worked. A furnace is in essence like a car engine you put fuel in there is combustion energy is produced and exhaust gases.What you do with the exhaust gases is simply a matter of thermal inclines and precipitators. Etc A furnace is something that is alive and fascinating to be around it has its own heart beat and idiosyncrasy its own smells we can by experience tell how well the furnace is or what type by how it smells the exhaust gases can be seen as pollutant or resource depending on the chemical and physical properties and technology available that utilises these. As any one familiar with industrial revolution would be aware from coal and oil a myriad of new products and endless by products were engineered mainly in Germany but also elsewhere many refinements were made in medicines dyes paints tyres plastics etc without the use of carbon based fuels there is no wiring for technology and no technology beyond the flaking of stones. I have taken the next obvious step after taking on the challenge presented in the economics of climate change and the meaning of practical and direct action taking into account botanical and biological processes. As motor car engines have been refined to use ever less fuel it stands to reason the exact same theory works in furnaces. Refine fuel as it enters the furnace create greater atmospheres within add oxygen so it is like a blast furnace and you increase combustion efficiency it is not rocket science although it may well be how rockets work. Because HELE high pressure vessels burn coal far more efficiently this already reduces the mass of C02 understanding this allows one to quantify potentials across a variable scope of possibilities. How the exhaust gases are dealt with is the answer to what to do about C02 this requires imagination for the lay person, but it is about flues and how the flues are designed and what sort of means there are to absorb as much of the C02 as possible. If we examine all relevant cost factors and Australia's ratio of C02 emission compared to global growth in same we can justify politically economically mathematically and scientifically the possibility not all C02 can be absorbed through plant growth. But at the same time because of how the earth itself is treated and type of plants used it may well be possible to absorb the majority of the C02 emitted. There must be a formula that allows calculation that explains relationship between quantity of C02 and plant growth performance reasonable estimations can be established. But the clue is providing optimum humidity and ground water. Massive constant harvest of hemp could be created for example Hemp can be used for climate proof building as its is in the EU or bio fuel or cattle fodder for times of drought and most importantly because ending plastic polluting the seas Hemp can be used for bio-degradable plastics and many other Bi-products but many plants can be used to create constant harvest so C02 becomes a source of income not a wasted resource. Basically it is called economics. If some of the energy is used to create new water but a wind or solar farm can also do the same then the optimum arrangement can be organised. It is called innovation Science Technology Engineering and Math. Jobs and growth remember were the slogan well I am offering the method. This is my IP.

Carbon dioxide as renewable source of energy ex coal fired power station This uses flues and fans adapted to furnace as well as precipitators and other refractory engineering factors to cool store in pressure vessel and transfer to growing sheds C02 along tubing placed just below the surface. Growing is fully automated as possible, to reduce risk to HR This allows an quantifiable productive value from mass of C02 [not volume] of agricultural or horticultural products which bio diesel bio-degradable plastics medicines insulations and fodder etc can be produced at a constant rate growing industrial Hemp within controlled environments.

1. The debate about Climate and Co2 always was predicated on what looks like panic mode. Carbon dioxide as source of renewable energy provided by its ability to accelerate growth allows with correct choice of crop multiple reliable harvest over a long term allowing investment and value adding from what was before a wasted resource, it is the carbon captured by plants that is carbon capture. Without Carbon there is no life. It is impossible to have an economy without carbon. There can be no such thing as a carbon free economy. This invention allows capital investment in a natural resource coal at same time allows development of environmentally sustainable employments of capital and labour. My back ground as a refractory Engineer allows insight to the whole process.
