CO2 ​Enrichment

The Seventeen Year Orange Tree Study
CO2 - carbon dioxide Makes Plants Grow a LOT FASTER! 

Mammals exhale CO2 when they breathe, so obviously small amounts of CO2 are NOT HARMFUL to humans and other living creatures.  We exhale at 4% CO2.

CO2 is a colorless odorless gas, that makes up 1/400th of 1% in the atmosphere = 400 parts per million 

CO2 is the fizz in soda pop and beer that tickles your nose.  

CO2 is considered a Greenhouse Gas associated with Climate Change due to its ability to trap long wave infrared light; CO2 keeps the earth warm and inhabitable. 

The OSHA standard for CO2 is 10,000 PPM TWA 8 hour exposure. Comparatively, AG Gas systems operate more than 10x less at 6-700 PPM  

Burning fossil fuels creates CO2 and a lot of water vapor, along with other more harmful gases directly associated with air pollution - Flue gas - including SO2 sulfur dioxide and NOx nitrogen oxides.  When the benign CO2 gas is scrubbed & captured from flue gas, the harmful gases (sulphur and nitrogen oxides) are removed and no longer released into the atmosphere, making for healthier air and a cleaner environment. ​
