GAS CAPTURE SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18195728 titled 'GAS CAPTURE SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The gas capture system described in the patent application includes several components such as heat exchangers, dehumidifiers, compressors, separation devices, and liquefiers to capture and liquefy a reference gas.
- The system utilizes a first heat exchanger to cool a gas mixture by exchanging heat with the cold heat of a fuel that is vaporizing.
- A first dehumidifier is used to dehumidify the cooled gas mixture.
- A first compressor then pressurizes the gas mixture passing through the dehumidifier.
- A first separation device separates a second gas mixture containing the reference gas from the pressed gas mixture.
- Finally, a liquefier is employed to liquefy the reference gas, producing a reference liquid.
Potential Applications
The gas capture system could be used in industrial settings for capturing and liquefying specific gases for various applications such as refrigeration, chemical processing, or gas storage.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently capturing and liquefying specific gases from gas mixtures, which can be challenging and energy-intensive using conventional methods.
Benefits
The system offers a more efficient and cost-effective way to capture and liquefy gases, making it easier to handle and store them for various industrial purposes.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Efficient Gas Capture and Liquefaction System for Industrial Use"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to gas capture and liquefaction systems used in industrial processes, but specific examples would need to be researched further.
Unanswered Questions

The patent application does not provide details on how the system accommodates gases with different properties or compositions.
What is the energy consumption of the gas capture system compared to traditional methods?
The patent application does not mention the energy consumption or efficiency of the system in comparison to existing gas capture and liquefaction technologies.
Original Abstract Submitted
A gas capture system includes a first heat exchanger that exchanges heat between cold heat of a fuel that is vaporizing and a first gas mixture to cool the first gas mixture, a first dehumidifier that dehumidifies the first gas mixture cooled through the first heat exchanger, a first compressor that presses the first gas mixture passing through the first dehumidifier, a first separation device that separates a second gas mixture including a reference gas from the pressed first gas mixture, and a liquefier that liquefies the reference gas to generate a reference liquid.
