What is
OxyCombustion?
Oxycombustion is an emissions abatement solution wherein coal (as well as other fossil fuels) is burned/combusted in the presence of 100% oxygen instead of "atmospheric" air which contains 20.95% O2 (by volume) along with;
78.09%
nitrogen
0.93% argon
0.039% carbon dioxide
and other small amounts of gases.
Atmospheric air also contains a variable amount of water vapor that averages about 1% (by volume).
This "clean
combustion" solution results in the exhaust containing only
carbon dioxide and water vapor. The CO2 that is generated is pure enough for use
in many industries, including "Enhanced
Oil Recovery."

What is "Dry Sorbent Injection?"
Dry Sorbent Injection or "DSI" is a post-combustion technology wherein a reactive calcium or sodium based sorbent is injected into the upper part of the furnace to react directly with the products of combustion that effectively and economically mitigates potential emissions problems in the flue gas including HCI, HF, SO2 and SO3.
Sulfur dioxide emissions are the precursor to acid rain.
Dry Sorbent Injection advantages include lower equipment costs (first cost) as well as decreases in operations and maintenance costs - and have a lower life-cycle cost than other technologies. Commonly used sorbents include reactive calcium, sodium and powdered activated carbon.
What is
Oxy-Fuel?
Oxy-Fuel is simply 100% oxygen or O2.
Oxy-Fuel is an integral part of the "Oxy-Combustion" process which enables "clean combustion" of fossil fuels - typically coal - wherein there are no hazardous air pollutants that are emitted in the exhaust stack/chimney.
Oxy-Combustion - and now by definition mandates using Oxy-Fuel and being touted as the saving grace for coal, and can now enable "clean coal" to be a reality.

“spending
hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars every year for
oil, much of it from the Middle East, is just about the single stupidest
thing that modern society could possibly do. It’s very difficult to think of anything
more idiotic than that.” ~ R. James Woolsey, Jr., former Director of the CIA

Price of Addiction ### to Foreign Oil |
According to R. James Woolsey, former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, “The basic insight is to realize that global warming, the geopolitics of oil, and warfare in the Persian Gulf are not separate problems — they are aspects of a single problem, the West’s dependence on oil.”
