摘要:Every time we burn fossil fuels such as gas, coal or oils, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.In a natural carbon cycle, carbon dioxide is re-absorbed by plants and trees. However, we are burning fuels where thecarbon dioxide has been trapped under the earth's surface for millions of years, and we're doing it so quickly that plantsand trees that are alive now have no chance of soaking it up and it doesn't help that we're cutting down rainforests aswell. The effect of all this extra carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is that the overall temperature of the planet isincreasing global warmingThe existing technology involves the capture of carbon dioxide at a large industrial plant, itstransport to a geological storage site and its long-term isolation in a geological storage reservoir. The technology hasaroused considerable interest because it can help reduce emissions from fossil fuels which are likely to remain thedominant source of primary energy for decades to come. Current technologies require several times the theoreticalenergy requirement to separate CO2 from fossil fuel conversion effluent. The intensive research in the feasibility studyof CO2 capture from Automobile Engines will help in the reduction of CO2 emission to the atmosphere.
