Project Name : CO2 sequestration in a Re-engineering way. A novel solution to create an alternate energy change.
Theme Name : Environmental Issue and Concerns
Brief Account: Climatic problems due to CO2 due to imbalance between its human induced emissions and its utilization. This balance can be regained by utilizing CO2 in 3 major pathways
1. Storage medium for renewable energy.
2. Feed stock chemicals for manufacturing various useful materials.
3. Direct use as working fluid / Solvent.
Energy storage involved conversion of CO2 either by photosynthesis into biomass then into biofuels or by photoelectrochemical, photochemical processes into energy storage chemicals like
formic acid, methanol etc. These storage chemicals are then transformed into butanol based fuels by bio engineered micro organism.
Feed stock concept involves synthesis of various important chemicals like Carbonates, Urea, bio degradable polymer, Isocynates etc. which can be utilized for road fills, soil enhancers, construction work, mine reclamation etc.
Working fluid/ Solvent application involves use of CO2 into oil recovery, biochemical industry, petro chemical industry, Pharmaceutical applications etc.
