I've been thinking about this lately and can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work. If you cooled air below melting point of C02(-109F) and provided the surface area for it to condensate on would the C02 separate from the O,N and Ar(which all have much lower boiling points than CO2) that primarily compose our atmosphere? If you then(or before cooling) pressurized the vessel above 5ATM would the solid CO2 turn into a liquid that could drain out the vessel? As you may know CO2 sublimes at 1ATM and requires 5ATM to become a liquid. Is there any reason why I couldn't go further than 5ATM? I am aware that only .04% of the atmosphere is CO2 and there are more energy efficient ways to remove CO2 but can it be done this way?
