Including the energy storage reaction and storage index, push rod type electric furnace, the production of sponge iron and lime is accompanied by the production of nitrogen-free gas, to promote the use of gas in the countryside, lime is cycliceally used to capture carbon dioxide in the flue, to make full use of natural resources and some problems to be studied in industrial production.

capture and store 120 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide. The CCS technical route from an American power plant seems to be the only one that can save the earth.
Since 2016, the author has published 6 articles on the use of captured carbon dioxide storage to save the earth in domestic and foreign journals. The contents involve climate change, energy, environmental protection, and other major issues. This paper aims to further clarify the author's point of view, it is hope to arouse people's attention

There Are Many Problems with the CCS Technical Route
In previous articles [1]- [6], the author has repeatedly pointed out that there are a number of problems with the current CCS route being rolled out globally. Such as high cost, limited burial places, there is a carbon dioxide leakage of safety risks.
Experts believe that the only way out for CCS technology is through a combination of storage and application. If we have buried all the captured carbon dioxide, it would be economically unbearable. However, the purification application of carbon dioxide is a worldwide problem, which has not been solved yet. The authors argue that even if this puzzle is solved, its application may be limited, so the CCS technical route is a dead end. Although the internationally recognized CCS technical route is still in the research stage, 56 CCS projects are already operating or planned around the world. China also has 11 CCS projects planned or in operation. It can be seen that people are anxious about the warming of the climate.

Carbon Capture and Stored Energy-CCSE and Smoke Stored Energy-SSE Technical Route
The author first proposed CCSE in 2016 and SSE in 2020. CCSE or SSE technology is a technology that can convert electrical energy into chemical energy and then store and apply it.
It's theory is that carbon gasification is an endothermic or energy-storage reaction(C + CO 2 = 2CO ΔH 0 298k = +162,297 kJ/mol). This is a simple chemical reaction. It has been used in industrial production for more than 100 years. Such as gas generators, blast furnaces making iron, etc.
The combination of storage and application is the only feasible route for CCSE or SSE. The climate can be controlled by adjusting the proportion of storage and application. SSE different from CCSE is that the smoke is applied directly. SSE saves an expensive capture cost. The deficiency of SSE is that there is a large amount of nitrogen in the gas, the calorific value is lower, if it is used cyclically, the calorific value is getting lower and lower, and the production process is unstable. Therefore, it is necessary to improve and stabilize carbon dioxide content in smoke by simple centrifugation-gravity method. If the cost of using compression separation to capture carbon dioxide can reach $25/t, as announced by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the cost of producing carbon

The Energy Storage Reaction and the Energy Storage Index-ZN
There are two common endothermic reactions; namely 2 C CO 2CO 162297 kJ kg mol Both of these reactions are endothermic or energy-storing reactions. These two reactions exist in the gas generator furnace.
Equation (1)  there are two things that people should understand. First, it is not willing to use electricity to produce gas, which may be that many scientists so far have not proposed the electric gas generation furnace thought concerns. This concern now seems unnecessary. Second, because of the ZN > 4, people would naturally think that the first use of electricity in lighting, electrical machinery, and so on seems unreasonable. Electricity shall first be supplied to a zero-energy electric heating gas generator. It can both consume large amounts of carbon dioxide, plastic waste, eliminates white pollution and the ability to control the climate warming that people are so worried about.

Develop Electric Gas Generator Energetically
The author thinks that the development of electric gas generator is based on： 1) CO 2 buried as waste in CCS technical route becomes the main raw material for gas production in CCSE or SSE technical route. The purpose of climate control can be achieved by adjusting the proportion between storage and application of gas.
2) CCSE or SSE technical routes can consume a lot of firewood, waste plastic, eliminate the white pollution that people are so worried about, and protect the environment.
3) The ZN = 3.52 for the carbon gasification reaction in the electric heating gas generator is very economical.
The electric gas generator is the only major device in CCSE or SSE, but it is an innovative device that has not been seen so far. It is actually an electric heating furnace. In addition to the generator, the ancillary equipment is the compressor and a number of storage gas bags or tanks.
The power of the furnace depends on the output. It takes about 1 kwh (1.06 kwh) to produce 1 m 3 of gas, and 1000 kW of power to produce 1000 m 3 of gas an hour.
The type of furnace may be varied, such as vertical, horizontal, converter etc.
The converter type is widely used in cement and sponge iron production, its advantage is that the furnace charge in the furnace is constantly turned back, so it reacts fast. For easily broken processing of raw materials, such as coal, firewood, plastic and so on, it is more appropriate.
The ancient tunnel kiln type electric gas generator has the advantages of mature technology, simple structure, small investment and small operation energy consumption, among which the biggest advantage is that raw materials such as Journal of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering firewood, garbage and corpse do not need to be processed and can be directly put on the kiln car. Its disadvantage is that the reactants such as coal are fixed on the kiln boat and the reaction speed is slower.
Push-rod electric gas generator ( Figure 1) should be the simplest type of furnace and minimum investment. Furnace body can be large or small. It can be generalized in the countryside. A 50 kw electric stove; can produce 1200 m 3 of gas a day, can meet the needs of thousands of farmers cooking.
No matter which type of furnace is used, they should have 4 things in common.
1) It is that the furnace chamber or furnace body must be sealed; 2) The flow direction of raw materials and CO 2 must be the same from low temperature to high temperature; 3) It must be operated at positive pressure to prevent air from entering the furnace; 4) It must have a good measuring instrument, according to the gas composition check results, adjust the CO 2 intake and furnace charge.
Because that the composition of raw materials, such as firewood can not be stable. Therefore, a pulverized coal injection device should be installed at the end of the furnace. According to the analysis results of the gas composition, the CO 2 content in the gas should be guaranteed under 2% to ensure the stable calorific value of the gas.

Sponge Iron and Nitrogen-Free High Calorific Clean Gas are Produced Simultaneously by Using Electric Heating Gas Generator
At present, the world's production of sponge iron is between 50 and 60 million tons. Most of them are used to make steel in electric furnaces. Part of it is used in powder metallurgy production. There are more than 20 methods to produce sponge iron. However, converter and the tunnel kiln is still the main method. Both completely rely on carbon gasification reaction to produce sponge iron (C + CO 2 = 2CO, CO + FeO = Fe + CO 2 ). Figure 2 is the flow velocity and composition of gas released from the reduction  we add small solid carbon outside the reaction tank and completely convert 35% CO 2 to CO, we can get 100%CO gas with nitrogen-free almost. Because that in the beginning, the reaction tank is filled with iron oxide and carbon powder.
There is small air left and it's expelled very quickly at the beginning of the reaction. So we get nitrogen-free high calorific value clean gas. The result is similar to using high purity oxygen to produce gas. According to the chemical reaction formula ( 2 3 Fe O 3C 2Fe 3CO + = + ), for every 1 ton of sponge iron produced, 600 m 3 of high purity clean gas can be obtained. Now, however, the current production is not like this at all.
The CO released from the reduction reaction tank is burned into CO 2 in the furnace, then it is expelled from the furnace with smoke. At 50 million tons of sponge iron a year, we throw away 30 billion m 3 of nitrogen-free quality gas every year.
Global iron ore production was 2.163 billion tonnes in 2017. Calculated at an average grade of 48.8%, the concentrates should have 10.6 billion tons. It contains 306 million tons of oxygen. According to the current production technology, after smelting, these oxygen are expelled as CO 2 form, which is nearly 420 million tons. Oxygen in iron ore is not being used. On the contrary, it pollutes the air. The author thinks that man has wasted valuable natural resources again.
There are many advantages to producing sponge iron and gas simultaneously. Such as: The iron and oxygen in iron ore are used, reduced CO 2 emissions, obtained quality nitrogen-free gas, reduced coke consumption, the cost of production has fallen considerably. This approach has strong competitiveness.

Lime and Nitrogen-Free High Calorific Value Clean Gas are Produced Simultaneously by Make Use of Electric Heating Gas Generator
CaO (commonly known as lime) is the main ingredient in cement, and its content ranges from 64 to 67%. Calcined limestone releases 44% of CO 2 , that is, a it is very economical to produce nitrogen-free high calorific clean gas when producing lime. Figure 3 shows the cyclic reaction of capturing CO 2 from flue gas with CaO and producing nitrogen-free high calorific clean gas with CO 2 from limestone decomposition.

Gas Is Used in the Vast Countryside
The countryside is a vast world, as far as the eye can reach.
Every plant and animal on the ground, growing day and night, has stored a great deal of energy, which people should make full use of.
As shown in Figure 1, a push-rod type gas generator is most suitable for general promotion in rural areas. A small 20 KW electric stove can produce 480 m 3 of gas per day, which can supply thousands of farmers. It's also very economical.
Rural coal gasification, not only the use of resources, and the protection of

Several Issues to Be Discussed
According to the energy storage index ZN = 3.4 of carbon gasification reaction, we consider inevitably that there are many problems worth studying in the current industrial production.

1) Pumped storage power station
The purpose of energy storage is achieved to use valley electricity to lift the water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir and convert mechanical energy into potential energy.
There are many such pumped storage plants around the world. China's current installed capacity is 27.73 million kw, surpassing Japan and becoming the world's largest. It accounts for less than 0.01% of the country's total installed capacity.
The thermal efficiency of the pumped storage power station is 70% and ZN is a negative value, which is compared with the electric gas generator of ZN > 4.
Obviously, it is more reasonable to build an electric gas generator.

J. M. Jin Journal of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering
Currently, garbage incinerators and cinerators are widely used worldwide.
Firewood, plastic, rubber, seaweed, animal carcasses and so on, which store a large of energy, are burned by a torch, which not only consumes a lot of fuel, wastes a large of energy, but also pollutes the environment, which is a very unreasonable measure. As shown in Figure 3, the author thinks that there are several advantages of using lime to capture carbon dioxide. Journal of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering a) CaO + CO 2 → CaCO 3 reaction is an exothermic reaction, which does not require additional heat.
b) The CaO can be recycled.
c) The requirement of purity of CO 2 in smoke before and after capture is not strict.
d) Compared with other capture methods, using lime to capture carbon dioxide, investment and operating costs may be the lowest.
e) Cement production costs can be significantly reduced. etc.
The flue gas passes through an iron drum. The size, rotation speed and reaction temperature of the drum are determined by the experiment.

5) Natural Balance and Balancing Point
The growth of plants and animals on the earth is interdependent. The ppm of carbon dioxide in the air should have a "balance point". If carbon dioxide emissions are greater than plant growth requirements, As a result, the climate is warming.
If the emissions are less than the equilibrium value, it is not conducive to plants' growth, plants will also die because of lack of carbon dioxide. At present, global electricity generation can convert 75% of carbon dioxide emissions into carbon monoxide for use and storage. But this is clearly unnecessary and undesirable.
The realization of natural balance requires a "balance point". Once a "balance point" is found, the amount of CO 2 to be captured can be determined.

Conclusions
1) Thermal power plants should use lime or gravity-centrifugal method to capture carbon dioxide in the flue, which can significantly reduce capture costs.
2) Electric gas generators should be used in the garbage incinerator. Use electricity and carbon dioxide to produce high-calorie gas. Increase renewable energy, protect resources, protect the environment and eliminate white pollution.
3) When producing lime, the gas should be produced at the same time, which can make full use of natural resources, reduce pollution and reduce the cost of lime production.

4)
When sponge iron is produced, the gas should be produced at the same time, which can make full use of natural resources and realize carbon-free iron making.
5) Electricity transmission is changed to gas transmission, which can save energy consumption, reduce electricity price and benefit the country and the people.
The above five conclusions, the author believes that it is only general knowledge, technical difficulties do not exist. There is no problem with the electricity supply. The author thinks that if these five measures can be realized on a global scale, perhaps climate warming, environmental pollution, energy depletion, and Journal of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering so on can be solved or remissioned.
