Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a CO2 sequester system comprising a CO2 sequester module being coupled to at least one of an air inlet and an air outlet of a cooling fan of a cooling tower cooling a coolant entering the cooling tower based at least on the air received into the air inlet of the cooling fan and exited out of the outlet of the cooling fan, wherein the CO2 sequester module is configured to separate CO2 from the ambient air that is at least one of received into the air inlet of the cooling fan and exited out of the outlet of the cooling fan. The present disclosure also relates to a method of separating CO2 from ambient air.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an urban air decontamination system, comprising: a column that can be installed vertically on the ground, an air inlet at the lower level of the column, air suction means, and a microalgae-based photobioreactor, suitable for capturing NOx and CO2, and releasing O2, and which receives the air sucked in from the outside. The system also has an ambient light inlet arranged to allow ambient light to pass into the photobioreactor, and a purified air outlet, located downstream of the photobioreactor and located at the upper level of the column. The invention provides a system for the decontamination of urban air that can be manufactured at low cost and with a small footprint so that it can be installed in multiple locations in a city or town.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for incinerating NH3 in an NH3 incinerator comprising a first incineration step at controlled sub-stoichiometric incineration conditions and a second incineration step with at a greater than stoichiometric amount of oxygen, whereby a product stream is produced with reduced NO formation. The invention also relates to an NH3 incinerator.

Abstract:
In order to reduce energy consumed for waste water treatment, in a scrubber (10), an exhaust gas (g1) is purified into a purified gas (g2) by bringing SO 2 contained in the exhaust gas (g1) into contact with cleaning seawater (a1) and SO 2 -absorbed cleaning seawater is discharged as waste water (a2). Then, a flow rate and a concentration of SO 2 of the exhaust gas and a concentration of SO 2 of the purified gas are measured. These measurement values are used as a basis to calculate an amount of HSO 3 - obtained by being absorbed into the cleaning seawater, and an amount of dilution seawater (a3) in accordance with this calculation result is supplied to the waste water.
Abstract:
A CO 2 removal device according to the present invention comprises: a CO 2 capturing material which captures H 2 O and CO 2 in a gas; a reaction container which contains the CO 2 capturing material; an H 2 O measuring unit for measuring the concentration of H 2 O in the gas; an H 2 O concentration adjustment device which adjusts the concentration of H 2 O on the basis of information obtained by the H 2 O measuring unit; a gas introduction path for introducing the gas into the reaction container from the H 2 O concentration adjustment device and bringing the gas into contact with the CO 2 capturing material; a first gas discharge path for discharging the gas from the reaction container after the gas has been brought into contact with the CO 2 capturing material; and a second gas discharge path for discharging the gas that has been desorbed from the CO 2 capturing material from the reaction container. The invention thus allows for the reduction of energy consumption in removing CO 2 .
Abstract:
A human load of regularly measuring a pH of a position 4 meters from a discharge point during a term of a commissioning of a ship with a scrubber apparatus is reduced. Provided is an apparatus provided inside a ship having a scrubber, including a first pH measuring instrument which measures a pH value of washing water discharged from the scrubber to outboard, a second pH measuring instrument which measures a pH value of washing water supplied from outboard to the scrubber, and a calculating unit which calculates a pH value of water at a predetermined position outboard, based on a dilution ratio which shows a ratio by which the washing water discharged to outboard is diluted at the predetermined position outboard, the pH value measured by the first pH measuring instrument, and the pH value measured by the second pH measuring instrument.

Abstract:
Provided are a CO 2 recovery unit and a CO 2 recovery method which enable stable operation to continue even if an operation condition has changed. This CO 2 recovery unit (1) is equipped with: a CO 2 -absorber (14) that causes CO 2 included in flue gas (11A) to be absorbed into a CO 2 -absorbing solution (13); a CO 2 -regenerator (15) which regenerates the CO 2 -absorbing solution (13) by heating; and a CO 2 recovery amount control unit (111) which calculates a computed target value for the CO 2 recovery amount and a computed target value for the CO 2 recovery rate on the basis of a set value for the CO 2 recovery rate, actual measured values of the CO 2 concentration, gas flow rate, and temperature of the flue gas (11A), and maximum values for the CO 2 recovery amounts in the CO 2 -absorber (14) and the CO 2 -regenerator (15). On the basis of the set value for the CO 2 recovery rate or the computed target value for the CO 2 recovery rate, the CO 2 recovery amount control unit (111) controls: the amount of the CO 2 -absorbing solution (13) supplied to the CO 2 -absorber (14); the amount of the CO 2 -absorbing solution (13) supplied to the CO 2 -regenerator (15); and the amount of saturated steam (S) supplied to a regeneration heater (31) of the CO 2 -regenerator (15).
