Re: Testing/fixing Climate Change

My point: getting it to where it will remain liquid and sink:

"Brewer's most recent work, conducted last summer, concentrated on the
behavior of liquid carbon dioxide at much greater depths where it is
denser than seawater. In these experiments, the researchers injected
several liters of liquid carbon dioxide into a glass beaker at a depth
of 3,600 meters.
A video camera aboard the remotely operated vehicle that deployed the
beaker relayed surprising information back to
the researchers -- the liquid carbon dioxide was highly reactive with
the surrounding seawater, significantly increasing in volume within the
first hour of the experiment."

So we have a 3k meter pipe; pump the gaseous CO2 down their where it
liquefies and
continues on down or alternately we pump the liquid; the pipe is now
insulated so
it (not the pipe) won't evaporate before it gets to a sufficiently high enuff
pressure to remain liquid.


curious: If I'm reading this correctly 400 feet will be enuff.

'Getting it down there' is fairly easy. It sinks once the pressure is
great enough to keep it condensed.

Extraction is done now while makeing medical LO2. Byproducts of this
air liquifaction are LN2, LCO2 (or dry ice - take your pick) along
with argon, krypton etc.
