Approach for Pollution Control using CO2 Scrubber

Ajay Singh, Mamta Bhagat

Abstract


Consideration of the full impacts of fossil-fuel emissions and our carbon-based economy demonstrates that unless meaningful action is taken now, our children and their descendants will inherit an increasingly unsustainable and unequal environment in which they, their families and communities will not be able to survive, adjust, evolve and transform where appropriate. The rising health and economic costs of fossil-fuel combustion pollution and climate change are already spurring mitigation initiatives that can serve as models for other societies as well as national, state and global agencies. About one-third of gross CO2 emissions are emitted by power plants alone worldwide. They explain in this article how CO2 Scrubber used in life support systems to handle exhaust gasses from industrial plants or from exhaled air.

KEYWORDS- Carbon dioxide CO2, mono-ethanol-amine, pollution, scrubber, tri-ethanol-amine
