No, its not a perpetual motion machine. This paper will introduce a watershed patent pending process where raw flue gas, when routed and applied properly in a sustained fashion will triple the rate of production of an ubiquitous sustainable "green" commodity product easily absorbed by the market. Beneficially CO2 in the flue gas is reduced with very minimal energy input, yielding a net negative GHG contribution most cost effectively, as it does not require CO2 recovery or purification. To be successful in reducing Gigatons of CO2 per year levels, it will require significant investment by industry (and government) in infrastructure, as expected for any solution of the growing magnitude of the GHG dilemma. In effect this is a solution with an infrastructure impact just like that required by the culprit utilities of electricity and hydrocarbon fuel before their use became widespread.
