An economical commercial process is needed to provide an incentive for the utility industries to engender win-win support for governmental regulations on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The current approach to mitigating CO2 emissions - at least from an engineering or technological standpoint - is carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). That approach requires CO2 capture followed by CO2 sequestration involving costly CO2 compression, transportation, underground storage and/or injection for crude oil recovery from reservoirs [See Reference No. 1].
