CARBON DIOXIDE RECOVERY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18321060 titled 'CARBON DIOXIDE RECOVERY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a carbon dioxide recovery system that uses an electrochemical cell.
- The electrochemical cell consists of a working electrode, a counter electrode, and an electrolytic solution.
- The working electrode contains a COadsorbent, which can absorb COwhen a voltage is applied and electrons are supplied.
- The working electrode and counter electrode are positioned to enclose the electrolytic solution.
- The COadsorbent is a porous body with larger pores than the ion diameter of the electrolytic solution.
Original Abstract Submitted
A carbon dioxide recovery system includes an electrochemical cell. The electrochemical cell includes a working electrode, a counter electrode, and an electrolytic solution. The working electrode includes a COadsorbent. The working electrode and the counter electrode are disposed to sandwich the electrolytic solution therebetween. The COadsorbent is configured to absorb COin response to a voltage being applied between the working electrode and the counter electrode and electrons being supplied from the counter electrode to the working electrode. The COadsorbent is a porous body having pores, and a pore diameter of the pores is larger than an ion diameter of the electrolytic solution.
