Abstract

Carbon dioxide contained within exhaust gas is combined with bivalent metal ions such as calcium ions or the like in concentrated salt water to form precipitated calcium carbonate and then can be expelled out. Such an environmental friendly design is realized by a bottle upside down device with a bottle neck exit on a bottom, a piston inside the device can be elevated to a top portion to produce a near vacuum air pressure inside the device. All the brine, exhaust gas, and oxygen, ozone draw together into the device can be accelerated to form, at least, precipitated calcium carbonate to reduce carbon dioxide contained within the exhaust gas. Chemical reaction accelerated by a high voltage discharger below the piston, by flashing a portion of water to atomize the brine. Or a heater can heat up the near vacuum device to accelerate chemical reaction.

Dependent claims

A carbon dioxide absorption device comprises:

a device (1) shaped like a bottle upside down has an exit (13) shaped like bottle neck portion formed on a bottom;
a water inlet pipe (10) connected to the device (1) draws a brine (5) into the device (1);
a first inlet pipe (11) connected to the device (1) draws a mixture of oxygen and ozone (7) into the device (1);
a second inlet pipe (12) connected to the device (1) draws an exhaust gas (8) into the device (1);
wherein a piston (2) inside the device (1) moved upward to a top portion thereof to induce a near vacuum pressure about 0.03 atmosphere pressure;
at least, by flashing a portion of water contained in the brine (5) into steam to atomize the brine (5);
a high voltage discharger (3) hung below the piston (2) discharges a high voltage little current to accelerate the mixture of oxygen and ozone (7), the exhaust gas (8) and impurities of the atomized brine (5) to form, at least, precipitated calcium carbonate (6) and residues to the exit (13) to be selectively expelled out.
