Companies Announce World’s First CO2-Free Gas Plants
18th April 2021
Unlike at a conventional natural gas plant, the energy startup’s technology burns natural gas with pure oxygen, instead of the air, only producing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Most of the CO2 is reused as part of Net Power’s four-step cycle, with the excess CO2 captured and “pipeline ready” for underground storage.
Cue handwaving by the people who want to ban ‘fossil fuels’ no matter what.

So you store it underground indefinitely instead of letting plants turn it back into oxygen?
I’m not a fan of this idea.
