Oxy-combustion - challenges
Air separation
 – Cryogenic distillation dominating for the
   foreseeable future
 – Ceramic mixed ion/electron conducting
   membranes – progress?
Natural gas: oxy-combustion gas turbines less likely
Coal: seems promising
Purification of CO2 before transport/storage
 – Depends on CO2 quality requirements
