Meanwhile creative new ways of using CO2 are being pitched.....


Carbon dioxide extracted from Bass Strait gas could potentially find its way into soft drinks and beer under a deal struck between ExxonMobil, BHP and industrial gases company Air Liquide.

The innovative carbon capture and reuse deal involves France’s Air Liquide building a new CO2 processing plant next to the huge Longford gas plant in Gippsland at a cost in the tens of millions of dollars to treat gas from the Bass Strait fields owned by Exxon and BHP.

The processed and purified CO2 will then be available for use in the food and beverage industry, or in other sectors such as the hospitality, manufacturing and medical industries.
