The COcontained in combustion fumes is captured by carrying out at least the following steps in combination:

[object Object]

The invention relates to an oxycombustion method with capture of the COproduced. Mixer M supplies chamber CC with a mixture of oxygen from unit O and of recycled fumes from storage drum SG. Chamber CC is supplied with oxidizer from mixer M and with fuel flowing in through line. All of the combustion fumes are sent to water condensation unit CT, then fed into storage drum SG. Part of the fumes containing all the COproduced by combustion is compressed to about 60 bars, then cooled and partly liquefied to about 15&#xb0; C. in liquefaction unit L, and stored in drum SM. According to the invention, the partly liquefied COis compressed by means of a multiphase pump in order to be discharged through lineand stored in an underground reservoir.
