The folks at CO2 Rail estimate that each railcar can remove up to 15 tons of CO2 per day, and their railcars also have an electrical regeneration system during braking. The CO2 stored in the tanks during the trip is discharged to a larger deposit when arriving at a station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the train also moves, the wagon does not need the fans of the fixed stations to circulate the air. This enters directly by the movement of the train during the march.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The system seems simple, does not require large fixed installations, and can be \u201creproduced\u201d as much as you like. And its developers estimate a cost of about 50 dollars for the elimination of a ton of CO2, which is less than half the cost of current fixed installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The idea is original, but it doesn't seem crazy. In Spain we have more than 15,000 km. of roads, in the USA more than 225,000 km, and so we could continue with all countries. There are millions of km of tracks through which thousands of trains circulate every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Making a simple calculation, if a wagon that eliminates CO2 is placed in each train, and we estimate that there may be more than 10,000 trains circulating around the world, more than 150,000 tons of CO2 per day could be eliminated. And that's 45,000,000 tons a year, which is not insignificant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As an idea and project it is quite good. We will have to wait until the corresponding prototypes are made and the results obtained are measured, to see the viability of the project. But as an idea it's a good one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The problem of Climate Emergency that we have before us is so enormous that all the necessary means need to be applied at the same time to stop producing CO2, and at the same time eliminate the one we have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are already very short of time.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Views: 4 Sabemos que el principal problema de nuestro clima es la excesiva cantidad de CO2 que tenemos, y adem\u00e1s de evitar la generaci\u00f3n de CO2 adicional, es muy importante la posibilidad de reducir parte del CO2 que ya tenemos.
