Abstract
In at least one example, an electrothermal swing adsorption system includes an electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus. The electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus includes a first chamber comprising at least one carbon monolith and a second chamber comprising at least one carbon monolith. The electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus receives a feed of a wastewater with at least one greenhouse gas dissolved therein, outputs a purified water flow stream, and outputs a concentrated aqueous greenhouse gas flow stream.

An electrothermal swing adsorption system comprising:
- an electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus comprising:
- a first chamber comprising at least one carbon monolith;
- and
- a second chamber comprising at least one carbon monolith;
- wherein the electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus is configured to receive a feed of a wastewater with at least one greenhouse gas dissolved therein;
- wherein the electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus outputs a purified water flow stream;
- and
- wherein the electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus outputs a concentrated aqueous greenhouse gas flow stream.
A method of removing greenhouse gases from wastewater utilizing a electrothermal swing adsorption system comprising:
- feeding wastewater with aqueous greenhouse gases into a first chamber of an electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus;
- adsorbing the aqueous greenhouse gases with a first carbon monolith in the first chamber;
- and
- outputting a purified water flow stream from the first chamber of the electrothermal swing adsorption apparatus.
