This invention relates to a method for the reduction of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by mode of combustion in boilers using a mixture of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide or, preferably, a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide as the combustion oxidant. This mode of combustion generates carbon flue gas that is easy to capture, concentrate, and via chemical or biological utilization or ocean or geologic sequestration. Carbon dioxide is believed to cause global warming. The invention also relates to the production of nitrogen from air as a chemical feedstock for the production of ammonia.

Is carbon dioxide a compound or mixture or element?

Carbon Dioxide is a compound (chemical combination of two elements, carbon and oxygen). Air is a mixture (physical combination of multiple elements and compounds like carbon dioxide, oxygen and so on)


Does warm carbon dioxide rise faster than cold carbon dioxide?

In an atmosphere of carbon dioxide, warm carbon dioxide would rise. Since carbon dioxide is better than twice as dense as air, it would need to be really hot before it would rise.


What results from the combination of hydrogen and carbon dioxide?

Co2h


Is Carbon dioxide O2?

No, carbon dioxide is not the same as oxygen (O2). Carbon dioxide is a molecule composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms (CO2). Oxygen, on the other hand, exists as O2, where two oxygen atoms are bonded together.


What serves as the carbon source for photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) serves as the carbon source for photosynthesis. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it in combination with water and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen through the process of photosynthesis.


What gas is exhaled from the lungs?

carbon dioxide


What is a combination of one atom and two oxygen atoms?

Carbon Dioxide


Is carbon dioxide an example of an element compound or mixture?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a chemical compound. A molecule of it is composed of a lone carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, each connected to the carbon atom by a covalent bond. A link can be found below to the relevant Wikipedia post on this significant atmospheric gas.


Which is better carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide?

Carbon dioxide is way better than carbon monoxide. Carbon dioxide is taken when some thing is burned. Combustion is a reaction which gives out energy as heat. When a flame develops it is called burning. When incomeplete combustion happens carbon monoxide is given out and not carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide is very dangerous. It has no small or coulous so it enters our lungs with out us knowing and bloacks out breathing. Many people died from this.


Would plants grow better with air or with carbon dioxide only?

Plants require oxygen to breathe. In an atmosphere with carbon-dioxide only, they would suffocate.


Is carbon dioxide an element or carbon?

Carbon is an element, but not carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a compound of carbon and oxygen.


What type of oxide is carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide is a covalent oxide, specifically a non-metallic oxide. It is formed by the combination of carbon and oxygen atoms, and primarily exists as a gas at room temperature.
