Abstract

Synthetic hydrocarbon fuel, derived from renewable energy and captured carbon dioxide from ambient air, can thoroughly close its carbon cycle and is a promising option for CCU and an important approach to sustainable energy. We investigate the Yongxing island in south China sea, which offers steady wind resources to provide continuous energy supply for plant factory and fuel synthesis. The energy consumption of MSAC and TSAC is compared and conversion of the captured CO₂to food and fuel are calculated. Powered by wind energy, 200 ton vegetables and 5.2∗10³ton diesel will be produced per year, so self-sufficiency of vegetable and fuel demand can be achieved on Yongxing island. Our methodology could provide a new utilization mode for islands like Yongxing island.
