Carbon dioxide is formed in all processes utilizing fossil fuels. Controlling the emissions of CO2 from a number of processes by forming CO2 hydrates (clathrates), may be an effective approach for both absorbing CO2 from multicomponent gas streams (Flue gases, Anaerobic digester gases, etc.) and sequestering CO2 in the deep oceans. Further, ocean marine farms may be an effective process for extracting CO2 from the atmosphere and forming both valuable products and rejecting excess CO2, in the form of clathrates, to the deep ocean. Preliminary engineering analyses indicates that clathrate formation for controlling both conventional fossil fuel gaseous CO2 emissions and those associated with marine farm anaerobic digester gases may provide a meaningful control strategy for CO2.
