Carbon recycling International captures carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and converts carbon dioxide to ultra clean fuel. The sources of emissions are from basic infrastructure industrial processes including aluminum smeltering, ferro silicon manufacturing, cement production and coal fired power generation.

The fuel is high octane gasoline, ultra low sulfur diesel and methanol for existing automobiles and future hybrid flexible automobiles. The recycling of carbon dioxide results in a net reduction of carbon dioxide and the cost effective conversion enables a sustainable production of synthetic fuel.

The technology is available today and is a viable solution for transport fuel in lieu of hydrogen fuel and carbon sequestration and in complement with oil based fuel.

Svartárkot (Black River Cottage), hitherto known as a sheep farm in Bárðardalur, NE Iceland, is shortly to become renowned as the site of an international centre for research and education on Icelandic culture and nature. Three courses will be run here, on the model of a general course that was successfully piloted nearby in Kiðagil in a conference in the summer of 2007. This had some 25 participants from universities worldwide who explored Icelandic nature, listened to lectures on Icelandic nature, history and culture and also enjoyed such activities as whale-watching at the summer solstice out of Húsavík under the midnight sun, as well as eating and drinking at white-night barbecues in the wilds of Svartárkot and Mývatn. The three courses of Svartárkot will be taught in the fields of cultural history, geography, and environmental studies. (more…)
