What are the environmental effects of the chemical mix? How do you reclaim the chemicals from the cooling water?
After carbon capture happens in the cooling tower, we run the stream through a regeneration process to release the captured CO2 and to regenerate the starting carbon capture blend. The water is sent back through the tower, and round and round it goes.
Is there an energy input here?
The hope would be that you could build enough renewable energy capacity to power this process.
