TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ENVIRONMENT - Preferred Process: Carbon oxide is obtained directly or indirectly, from the atmosphere. Carbon oxide is converted to a reduced stream comprising carbon and an oxidant by a reduction reactor operated at reduction conditions such as chemical, catalytic, thermal, electrical, dielectrical, ionic, plasma, electrochemical, electromagnetic and/or photocatalytic means. The process involves separating the carbon from the oxidant in a separation unit that is optionally integrated with the reduction reactor. A common reactor is utilized to reduce the carbon oxide to carbon and then to oxidize carbon to the carbon oxide. The oxidant is obtained from reduction of the carbon oxide to the carbon and the oxidant. The process further involves supplementing the carbon with another carbon source, initially and/or continuously; transporting at least a portion of the carbon by a transporting means (e.g. truck, train, ship, barge, pipeline and/or bulk solids conveyer) forming a slurry of carbon in liquid oxygen to an oxidation reactor; intermediate storage of the carbon in piles, rail cars, truck trailers, tanks, silos, bins, hoppers, intermediate bulk containers, sacks and/or drums; transporting the oxidant from a reduction reactor to an oxidation reactor; intermediate storage of the oxidant in a piles, rail cars, truck trailers, tanks, silos, bins, hoppers, intermediate bulk containers, sacks, drums and/or atmosphere. Oxidation of carbon in an oxidation reactor operated at oxidation conditions to generate reaction energy and an oxidized stream comprising the consequent carbon oxide; intermediate storage of the consequent carbon oxide in rail cars, truck trailers, tanks, silos, bins, hoppers, intermediate bulk containers, sacks, drums or the atmosphere. All carbon is oxidized to generate the energy on demand and the consequent carbon oxide. Recycling and/or reusing the consequent carbon oxide is in actuality or virtually via the atmosphere. All carbon oxide is provided by the recycling and/or reusing the consequent carbon oxide. The consequent carbon oxide is recycled and/or reused. The energy as available is co-located with the energy on demand at a single plant site. The energy as available and the energy on demand are located at separate plant sites. The process generates essentially no net carbon emissions. Transforming renewable wind or solar energy as available to dispatchable energy on demand involving: using the renewable wind or solar energy as available, in electron, photon, plasma, or thermal form, to reduce carbon oxide to carbon and oxygen; increasing bulk density of the carbon; separately oxidizing at least some of the carbon to generate the energy on demand and consequent carbon oxide; and recycling and/or reusing the consequent carbon oxide, either in actuality or virtually via the atmosphere, where process gives zero net carbon emissions. The energy as available directly provides energy, heat, or work to reduce carbon oxide to carbon. The energy available is converted to secondary energy such as electricity. The energy as available directly or indirectly provides at least a portion of the carbon oxide to the process. The energy as available is biomass energy that is associated with generation of biomass-derived carbon oxide, and the biomass-derived carbon oxide is used as or combined with carbon oxide. Preferred Reactor: The reduction reactor is selected from thermal reactor, catalytic reactor, electrolysis reactor, reverse fuel cell, electrochemical reactor, electromagnetic reactor, photocatalytic reactor, pulsed laser reactor or plasma reactor. The oxidation reactor is selected from boiler, a conventional coal-fired power plant, a modified coal-fired power plant, a non-catalytic combustion unit, a catalytic oxidation reactor, a chemical-looping combustion system, a fuel cell or an integrated gasification combined cycle unit (preferably molten carbonate or solid oxide fuel cell). Preferred Components: The oxidant is molecular oxygen obtained from air; a metal oxide or another compound containing a metal and oxygen. EXAMPLE - No suitable example is given.
