Biochemical CO2 capture
One more tool for adressingclimate change
challenges

• A sustainable development technology
• For energy production and heavy industries
• First commercially available biochemical process

- No more CO2 to handle -
3
Greenhouse gases (GHGs)when  too much  is
 bad 

• Nature has had GHG emissions for ever
• In balance with GHG consumption by natural means
• Increasing human activities generate an excess of
  GHG emissions
• Imbalance with GHG consumption by natural means
• GHG emissions will have to be reduced
• voluntarily and/or by regulation
• CO2 is the most prevalent GHG
• followed by CH4

4
Many ways to reduce GHGs

• GHG reduction achievements will be a combination
  of various approaches
• Selecting the best energy source
• coal, oil, natural gas, biogas, hydrogen
• Upgrading industrial processes
• to reduce amounts of GHGs produced
• Capturing CO2 after being emitted
• for massive recycling or sequestration

5
Capture of CO2 emissions

• Greenhouse gas emissions are gas mixtures
• CO2, CH4, H2S, NOx
• The petro-chemical industry already knows how to
  selectively extract CO2 from a gas mixture
• For industrial use of the CO2-free gas mixture
• Disposal of CO2 at lowest cost
• GHG volumes are massively higher than CO2 volumes
  extracted by industry
• Petrochemical industry technologies are cost
  prohibitive

6
Capture - Sequestration

• First, capture CO2
• Extraction form a gas mixture
• Condensation, liquefaction
• Then, sequestrate it
• Where ? Environmental risks
• Will it come back in the atmosphere as CO2 ?
• Need for new technologies
• Less risk, definitive CO2 elimination

7
CO2 Solution Inc. offers an innovative
alternative

• CO2 gas is converted into an unharmful liquid
  by-product, right at point of emission
• No more need of energy to compress or liquify
  captured CO2
• No more CO2

8
Biochemical catalyst
Using a potent and robust biochemical
catalyst,CO2 Solutions treatment unit
replicates a natural process occuring in human
muscles - Carbonic anhydrase -One of the most
efficient catalysts,now available for industrial
use

• Massive amounts of catalyst are affordably
  synthesized through latest advances in genetic
  engineering
• Production costs slashedby a factor of 100

9
Attractive features

• CO2 Solutions reactor operates at ambient
  temperature and atmospheric pressure
• Lower costs
• Sustainable development technology
• Favorable Life Cycle Assessment (ISO 14040)
• Can enrich methane-poor biogases by stripping
  their CO2 content
• The instant by-product is an easily manageable
  liquid solution of bicarbonate ions (HCO3-)

10
Ancillary benefits of theby-product

• CO2 Solutions treatment unit
• instantaneously converts harmful CO2 gas
• into unharmful bicarbonate ion solution
• Valuable alternatives to CO2 compression or
  liquefaction

11
Added value of by-product

• Several HCO3- recycling options
• Sequestration in saline aquifers
• More affordable than piping CO2
• Irreversible sequestration, no risk of CO2 leak
• Precipitation, e.g. into calcium carbonate
• Commercial value in Pulp and Paper, etc.
• Pure CO2 regeneration through desorption
• Valuable local production in remote areas

12
A plan of actionfor each industrial sector

• CO2 Solution has a plan of action for your
  industry sector
• Coal-fired power plants
• Hydrogen plants and gensets
• Biogas enrichment for power generation
• Incinerators
• Cement, aluminum smelters, pulp and paper,
  foundry
• CO2 Solutions plan of action can help you reduce
  your GHG emissions by 10 within 3-6 years
• This plan of action will be highly competitive
  with the increasing costs of CO2 emission
  penalties
