Carbon dioxide Louisiana

The appHcation that has led to increased interest in carbon dioxide pipeline transport is enhanced oil recovery (see Petroleum). Carbon dioxide flooding is used to Hberate oil remaining in nearly depleted petroleum formations and transfer it to the gathering system. An early carbon dioxide pipeline carried by-product CO2 96 km from a chemical plant in Louisiana to a field in Arkansas, and two other pipelines have shipped CO2 from Colorado to western Texas since the 1980s. EeasibiHty depends on cmde oil prices. 

When organic sulfur is not removed with the carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, it must be eliminated by hot alkalized iron oxide, as was done in the German synthesis plants, or—probably more advantageously— by adsorption on activated carbon. The latter method was quite effective at the U.S. Bureau of Mines demonstration plant at Louisiana, Mo.
