MHI to give CO2 recovery tech to Indian firm

TOKYO —

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd said Wednesday that it will license its carbon dioxide recovery technology to India’s Nagarjuna Fertilizers and Chemicals Ltd. The Indian fertilizer maker will use the technology at its new CO2 recovery plant, which is slated to be built in June 2009.

The plant, which will be capable of capturing 450 tons of CO2 a day, will be one of the largest CO2 recovery facilities in the world. The technology, codeveloped with Kansai Electric Power Co, recovers CO2 from flue gas emitted during the fertilizer production process. Nagarjuna Fertilizers and Chemicals will use the captured CO2 and ammonia to make urea, a fertilizer component.

    Believe it or not, carbon is not poison, Oxygen is a carcinogen, and Carbon recovery and sequestration is seismically dangerous. Following a trend, all be it fashionable, but highly unscientific, Japan has proven that it doesn't know diddly. The G8 Summit will be a disaster! (Read Lovelock's, "The Revenge of Gaia".)
