Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a carbon dioxide absorber and a method for separating and recovering carbon dioxide from gas. The carbon dioxide absorber can efficiently and stably remove carbon dioxide from gas or solution. It prevents corrosion of metal and volatilization of amine compounds. The carbon dioxide absorber is stable and can be used for a long time. The carbon dioxide removal method and separation / recovery method are efficient during continuous use. The carbon dioxide absorber and the carbon dioxide separation / recovery method are stable and can be used repeatedly.

Problems solved by technology

Since conventional technologies for separating and recovering carbon dioxide, such as a chemical absorption process, require a large amount of additional energy for separating carbon dioxide from absorbers, they have extremely serious economic shortcomings.
However, since alkaline metals are strongly basic, it has been difficult to save energy despite the strong acidity of acidic compounds.
However, since this is used only as an intermediate substance for forming a cosmetic compound, its chemical properties relating to absorption of carbon dioxide are not known.
However, although this use of a heat pump achieves a certain degree of energy savings, when the equipment costs of this system are taken into consideration, the effects cannot be said to be adequate.
In this apparatus as well, the thermal energy able to be used from the flue gas is unable to achieve adequate energy savings.
