I was wondering,.....with the current emphasis on "greenhouse gases" and global warming, how practical is it to remove CO2 from the effluent of a Combustion turbine power plant ? Are there any demo or pilot plants in operation ?
How is the CO2 collected and where does it go ?
How about a gas-fired combined cycle installation ? (The kind, of course, that is now being constructed all over the USA) If the plant emitts less CO2, don't we end up with a big pile of "something" that requires disposal ?
I realize that nuclear plants really are bad in the eyes of many, and that nobody want's them on the planet.... but, after we burn through all of our natural gas and had a few more war's in the mid-east over control of oil...... what is our only real option ??
Who knows something about the practicality of CO2 removal ?
Any websites ?
Thank You !!!
