Carbon Utilization

Two models proving the platform reaches past capture into transport and utilization: dense-phase CO2 pipeline hydraulics, and Sabatier-reaction methanation turning captured carbon back into a fuel instead of just storing it.

CO2 pipeline transport — Darcy-Weisbach friction loss over a 150 km trunk-line run, with a pump station (not a compressor — dense-phase CO2 above its critical pressure behaves as an incompressible liquid) restoring pressure for the next segment.

CO2 methanation — CO2 + 4H2 ⇌ CH4 + 2H2O at 97% single-pass-equivalent conversion, then a cooler + knockout drum separate the SNG from the reaction water.
