Proposed is a system for capturing carbon dioxide and sulfur oxide for ships that can capture carbon dioxide in flue gas using a basic alkaline mixture and use the captured carbon dioxide to capture sulfur oxides in the flue gas. The carbon dioxide and sulfur oxide capture system for ships uses sodium carbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate prepared from the captured carbon dioxide as a desulfurization agent to capture sulfur oxides in the flue gas discharged from ships, thereby simultaneously producing carbon dioxide and sulfur oxides in one system.

A catalyst device includes a catalyst carrier serving as a heating element that generates heat when energized. The catalyst device includes a guide pipe that guides exhaust into the case. The catalyst device includes a connecting pipe that connects the guide pipe to the case. The case has an end that is an insulative portion and projects further upstream, in the direction in which exhaust flows, from an end surface of the catalyst carrier. A temperature difference inducing structure, which induces a state in which the connecting pipe is relatively lower in temperature than the end of the case, includes a heat shield, encompassing an outer circumferential surface of the connecting pipe and having an opening in part of a portion opposing the outer circumferential surface of the connecting pipe, and a stay fixing the outer circumferential surface of the connecting pipe to an internal combustion engine.

Atmospheric pollutants are efficiently separated from exhaust gas with low operating cost. The exhaust gas cleaning method forms a fine mist of aqueous alkaline solution with an atomizer in an atomizing step; mixes the aqueous alkaline solution mist with exhaust gas to absorb atmospheric pollutants contained in the exhaust gas into the mist in a mixing step; and separates mist that absorbed atmospheric pollutants from the exhaust gas in a separating step.
