PROCESS FOR INTEGRATING CONVERSION OF HYDROCARBONACEOUS ASSETS AND PHOTOBIOFUELS PRODUCTION USING AN ABSORPTION TOWER

摘要

The present invention is generally directed to processes that integrate C02-producing conversions of hydrocarbonaceous assets with biofuels processes that utilize C02 in photosynthesis. Such processes involve the absorption of C02 in an absorption liquid. At least some of the C02 captured by the absorption liquid is used to support photosynthesis in a photobiofuels process.
