3 Steps Regenerative Energy

That energy can be regenerate from combustion waste or CO2 emissions, the formula for chemical reactions has been discovered three centuries ago. Only these formulas need to be sequenced properly so that the regenerated energy or what we introduce as Regenerative Energy (RE) can produce optimal results and with minimal energy requirements for the process.

The following 3 steps are an open source process that can be carried out by community groups, corporations, institutions or any country to produce their own clean energy, so that SDG target number 7 - Affordable Clean Energy, can be achieved before 2030,

First, all sources of flue gas emissions from any chimneys are captured first, the majority of the flue gas content is CO2. Apart from cleaning the sky from CO2 pollution, this CO2 will be our raw material for producing RE. From the reactions below, we will know the Cs sources that we will use for RE production are 1 part from CO2 and 1 part from carbon or charcoal.

To be able to obtain 1 part of C from CO2, we also use an adsorbent from carbon, namely charcoal that has been activated and functionalized or what we call AFC (Activated and Functionalized Carbon). The amount of AFC needed is approximately 1/3.7 of the amount of CO2 we want to capture. The result of this capture will be CO2 as an adsorbate attached to the adsorbent, both of which become raw materials for step 2.

The second step is to react the adsorbent and adsorbate in the Boudouard reaction, from this reaction we will get a total of 2 parts of CO. Of these 2 parts of CO, we retain 1/3 of it as CO, and 2/3 of it is processed in the 3rd reaction.

The third reaction is called the Water Gas Shift (WGS) reaction, because every 1 CO molecule in this reaction will produce 1 H2 molecule, so the reaction of 2/3 parts of CO from stage 2 will produce 2/3 parts of H2 in stage 3. If This result is combined with 1/3 of the CO retained in stage 2, we will obtain high quality syngas with a molecules ratio of H2/CO=2:1.

Syngas with upgraded H2/CO composition like this can then be processed following industry standard processes to become hydrocarbon fuels, oxygenates or carbon-free fuels. For the latter, all CO from process 2 are used up in process 3 to produce all H2. This H2 is carbon-free energy, or it can also be used for the production of ammonia - which is also carbon-free.

Of course, proper reactors are needed for these three reactions, namely the FlueTrap reactor to capture CO2, the OCCYRE reactor for the Boudouard reaction process, and the XH2 or XH2M reactor for the WGS reaction, all of which can now be ordered at the Advanced Renewable Organization (ARO).
