A CO.sub.2 deep sea throw-away system includes a floating offshore base (2), receiving liquefied CO.sub.2 carried by a liquefied CO.sub.2 carrier (1). The base has a throwing pipe (3) and a throwing pipe outlet (4) to deliver the liquified CO.sub.2 in an enclosing bag (11) in the sea at a depth where a liquid phase state of the liquified CO is maintained. An unmanned submersible working boat (10) is provided and has a plurality of capsules (26) mounted thereon. Each capsule contains an enclosing bag (11) to enclose the liquified CO.sub.2. The boat transports the capsules into the sea at a depth where a liquid phase state of the liquified CO.sub.2 is maintained and operates to enclose the liquified CO.sub.2 in the enclosing bags (11). The liquified CO.sub.2 in the enclosing bag (11) and the capsule (26) are then released so as to fall onto the sea bottom. Also, a control base (9) is provided on the offshore sea to control the unmanned submersible working boat (10).

A liquefied carbonated gas abyssal casting apparatus prevents freezing at an outlet of a casting tube and flotation of cast carbonated gas. The liquefied carbonated gas is fed from a reservoir to a single casting tube and discharged to the abyss through an inner tube of a double casting tube from a lower end of the single casting tube. A heat medium fluid is recirculated between the inner tube and an outer tube of the double casting tube. The liquefied carbonated gas which flows through the inner tube is heated to an abyssal temperature of from -1.degree. to 5.degree. C.
