In a conventional fossil-fuel plant that's prohibitively expensive, since the CO2 is mixed in with nitrogen.
In your standard fossil-fuel power plant, the inefficiency begins when the coal or gas ignites.
"I commend HMRC and PSNI officers on discovering this underground fuel laundering plant, " he said.
Earlier this month, a new fuel cell plant was dedicated at San Francisco State University (SFSU).
FORBES: Never Mind Solyndra: Fuel Cell Industry Growing with Government Support
Producing fuel from plant crops is supposed to be greener than drilling for oil, and biofuels generally burn cleaner, too.
There's even a "white tag" market: When I install a more efficient light bulb, I can sell that efficiency gain to the fossil fuel power plant, just as if it's a green tag.
Next the company converted the microbe to produce means to create ethanol fuel from plant cellulose, and following scale-up and cost problems, abandoned that dream to focus upon higher cost chemicals used in cosmetics.

The IAEA later sent a letter to member states saying Iran had informed the agency of its plans to use the improved machines at its fuel enrichment plant in Natanz, according to a document seen by Reuters.
The International Atomic Energy Agency sent a letter to member states saying Iran had informed the agency of its plans to use the improved machines at its fuel enrichment plant in Natanz, according to a document seen by Reuters.
's International Atomic Energy Agency asked Iran to explain the presence of particles of enrichment levels of up to 27%, found in an analysis of environmental samples taken in February at the Fordo fuel enrichment plant near the city of Qom.
The Rochester plant makes fuel systems for trucks, as does another Delphi plant in China, except workers there earn dramatically less.
Canadian inventor Louis Michaud has created the Atmospheric Vortex Engine, which harnesses the energy of tornados to produce clean energy, and energy companies Dominion and FuelCell Energy Inc. announced plans to build the largest fuel cell power plant in North America.
Manure from a herd of 500 cows will fuel a new power plant being proposed in Oxfordshire.
Designing friction out of pipes and ducts can save 10 times as much fuel at the power plant.
Russia now wants new inspection rules in place before delivering nuclear fuel to the power plant it is building at Bushehr, on the Persian Gulf.
The cost of producing fuel at a German plant was soon ten times the price of gasoline shipped from the ports of the Gulf of Mexico.
Energy agreed to build a fuel-cell manufacturing plant in Delaware.
Evolution Resources wants to jump into the hot business of celluosic ethanol--converting otherwise useless plant material into fuel.
Thus, for every 100 units of fuel burned, a power plant could generate at most 48 units of electricity.

It could eventually shut down engine and transmission factories around the world because one plant could make fuel cells for all types of vehicles.
Then it's pumped back in to carry more heat away from the plant's fuel rods, which continue producing energy long after the chain reaction at the heart of the units has been stopped.
Last month BNFL said they have dropped the option to use Magrox fuel to power the Anglesey plant - which has been closed for the last nine months because of problems with welds in the reactors.
Mr Woolsey, who backed the Iraq war, is on the advisory board of the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, which argues for subsidies to make cars more fuel-efficient and for plant-based alternatives to petrol.
They are working on a project in the Cook Inlet of Alaska that would provide enough syngas to fuel a 100 MW power plant, as well as investigating opportunities for UGC in Alberta and Wyoming.
FORBES: Underground Coal Gasification: A Trend Worth Watching
Most biofuels schemes entail some plant or algae using photosynthesis to create a sugar that is transformed into fuel either by the organism or after the plant is harvested.
The process is also capable of transforming virtually all plant matter into liquid fuel, whereas typical ethanol refining uses only the fatty acids that make up around 10 percent of the mass of dried plants.
The answer lies in its plant for reprocessing spent fuel, built partly to take used fuel from Germany and Japan (which largely paid for its construction) and partly to produce the plutonium that was once expected to be needed as fuel for fast-breeder reactors, in Britain and elsewhere.
Recently the plant was given permission move fuel from Reactor 2 to Reactor 1 to continue generating electricity.
For growers who decide to go off the grid, 70 gallons of diesel fuel is required to produce one indoor plant.
