PROCESS FOR PRODUCING LIQUID FUEL FROM GAS STREAM COMPRISING CARBON DIOXIDE

摘要

A process for producing liquid fuel and liquid water from a gas stream comprising carbon dioxide and water vapor. The gas stream can be ambient air. In the process, carbon dioxide and water vapor are adsorbed onto an adsorbent. The gases are desorbed from the adsorbent to create a reaction mixture for forming the liquid fuel, such as methanol. Excess water vapor is condensed to form liquid water, which can be used in a variety of ways.
