Embodiment Construction

[0023] The present invention generally relates to the extraction, reduction, capture, treatment, sequestration or storage of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), and including the reduction or elimination of CO from the environment 2 new methods and devices. CO 2 Both the extraction and isolation of are encompassed by the present invention.

[0024] In our earlier U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 60 / 603,811 we presented a strategy for bringing air into contact with absorbent coated surfaces. We indicate that due to the absorption of CO 2 With the slow reaction kinetics typical of hydroxide or carbonate solutions of , one should provide a straight path for laminar flow to make the CO 2 to maximize absorption. If liquid side reaction kinetics can be improved, more complex channels reduce air-side confinement, but for low reaction kinetics straight channels with smooth surfaces appear to be more effective.

[0025] The present invention provides in one aspect a solution for the absorp...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for removing CO2 from air comprising exposing an absorbent-covered surface to air. The invention also provides means for exposing air to a CO2 absorbent. In another aspect, the present invention provides methods and apparatus for separating bound carbon dioxide (CO2) in absorbents.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the removal of selected gases from air. The present invention is particularly suitable for extracting carbon dioxide (CO2) from air 2 ), the present invention will be described below in conjunction with this purpose, certainly other purposes can also be arranged. Background technique [0002] Extraction of carbon dioxide (CO) from ambient air 2 ), enabling the use of carbon-based fuels and dealing with the associated greenhouse gas emissions after the fact. Due to the CO content in parts per million 2 Neither toxic nor harmful, it creates an environmental concern by simply accumulating in the atmosphere, so CO needs to be removed from the air 2 , in order to compensate for emissions elsewhere and at different times. General schemes of air capture are well known. [0003] CO is produced in various industrial applications such as in coal-fired power plants and in the use of hydrocarbons, which are typically a major ...
