You refer to the capture of CO2 as an actual capture and transport to Algae ponds. From what I understand, the absorption, scrubbing, cooling and compressing of CO2 is an extremely expensive process. For an algae farmer it appears to be cheaper (although not environmentally sound) to use a propane CO2 emitter as a source for CO2 feedstock. If the goal is to sequester CO2 using algae, the only economical solution is to grow the algae on-sight which is a massive challenge to incorporate it into an existing industrial infrastructure. Please respond if you are aware of a cost effective capture and transport method.iVision4Uhttp://www.pacificrimbiodiesel.comnoreply@blogger.com
