Abstract

Systems of total capture and recycling of used organic and inorganic matter of the earth's environment to enable the realization of selfsustainable human habitations in previously uninhabitable areas of the earth and thereby contribute to the elimination of environmental pollution. Disclosed is a combination of interconnected innovative technologies to enable the realization of self-sustainable communities largely independent of outside man-made energy and potable water combined with ZERO fluid emissions into the environment that point the way to a sustainable solution of the global warming and environmental pollution problems comprising large scale cyclic photosynthetic carbon capture and associated fluid purification systems with fluid recycling and solids' recovery systems. Schematised illustrations provide the principles of the present invention, whereby carbon gases emitted from conventional power stations and other combustion processes are converted by photosynthesis to carbohydrates then hydrocarbons and recycled as fuel in captive closed systems thus completely eliminating emissions of green house gases to the atmosphere as well as providing the precondition for maintaining a high degree of sanitation of the process. Fluid purification systems are disclosed to enable the long-term recycling and reuse of the photosynthesising fluids involved in the power generation and all fluid streams generated and used within selfsustainable human habitats.
