Abstract
A compressor is provided for pressurizing carbon dioxide produced by a carbon dioxide production plant and introducing the pressurized carbon dioxide to a carbon dioxide sequestration system. The compressor has a measuring system which determines the amount of carbon dioxide produced by the production plant. It also has a control system which varies the power of the compressor depending on the determined amount of produced carbon dioxide.
