Today's new on Carbon dioxide

CCS funding process may be flawed
Hi you all,
I had a quick go on some interesting news concerning CO2 and the capture process, CCS.
First is a new way of reducing GHG trough a chain of carbonate reaction involving pulverised rock.
We saw this week the huff-n-puff reactions of the industrial putting in jeopardy a couple of projects: Florange in France,  NER300 funding program are making the cover.
But there are good news, such as this company, Ryncosmos promoting portable CO2 emission reduction for houses and cars. Alstom is working with Dow for the past 4 years now to develop some amine system to catch CO2 more efficiently. Talking about amines, some nice research made in Laval University to increase the efficiency of regeneration of the amine beds (if you don't have access to the article, there is a good review for CCJournal here).
Eventually you can have a look on the same journal the featured articles on CO2  compression ( that's for the radicals!!!)
