CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE SYSTEM AND METHOD WITH MASS TRANSFER CONTACTOR
A carbon dioxide capture system, fluid contactor and method are disclosed. In embodiments, a gas-liquid contactor unit is disposed along a process fluid flow axis and includes a contactor of network flow diversions barriers with flow voids for movement of process fluids therebetween. A plurality of heat exchange channels are provided in the flow diversion barriers to transport a heat exchange fluid through the contactor network. A heat exchange feed channel is provided to deliver feed of the heat exchange fluid to the heat exchange channels at multiple feed locations spaced along the flow axis. At least one heat exchange bypass channel may extend beyond the multiple feed locations to deliver a portion of the feed of the heat exchange fluid to additional heat exchange channels located downstream from the multiple feed locations for the heat exchange channels.
EXHAUST GAS PURIFICATION SYSTEM
The present invention provides an exhaust gas purification system. In the exhaust gas purification system, a shower nozzle 20 disperses liquid toward exhaust gas 11 from an upper portion of the exhaust gas 11. The dispersed liquid is mixed with the exhaust gas 11 and thereafter, the liquid accumulates in a tank 30, and odor and oil content are dissolved by action of microorganism included in the liquid in the tank 30. The shower nozzle 20 is connected to an opening 24 horizontally provided in a nozzle pipe 23 connected to a liquid-supply pipe conduit 22. The exhaust gas purification system includes a nozzle 20N directed to a downward dispersing direction of the liquid. The nozzle 20N is placed in the nozzle pipe 23 such that a lower end 20L of the nozzle 20N is located higher than a bottom 25 of an inner wall of a pipe conduit of the nozzle pipe 23. According to this, exhaust gas including odor and oil content is purified.

Flare system using produced water and ozone injection
A system and apparatus for treating and disposing of produced water in conjunction with flared gas, thereby avoiding problems associated with injecting produced water back into subsurface strata. The system is installed at or near the wellhead where produced water being treated is at a higher temperatures. Produced water is treated with ozone injection in a scrubber with heat applied through a flare gas field burner, which uses field gas from oilfield operations. A wet scrubber unit with scrubber packing is used to clean emissions. A produced water pump is used to circulate produced water, and pump produced water through spray nozzles in the scrubber unit for use as the wet scrubbing agent. As produced water evaporates, evaporated salts and solids are continuously removed from the evaporator/scrubber unit by appropriate means, such as an auger system. The evaporated salts and solids are then treated via chemical stabilization in a mixing system with chemical reagents to prevent the residual form from being hazardous. The residual material is then stored and disposed of properly.

LOW-COST AND HIGH-EFFICIENCY ABSORPTION-DESORPTION DECOUPLING METHOD FOR CONTAMINANT-CO2 SYNERGISTIC CAPTURE
The invention relates to a low-cost and high-efficiency absorption-desorption decoupling method for contaminant-CO.sub.2 synergistic capture. According to the method, an optimization model of absorption-desorption decoupling control for contaminant-CO.sub.2 synergistic capture under different working conditions is built, the optimization objective is to obtain high-purity liquid contaminants and CO.sub.2 at low cost and efficiently, and an adaptive penalty function is constructed to transform a solution of a constrained optimization problem into that of an unconstrained optimization problem, thereby controlling parameters in a real-time, precise and stable manner. Moreover, supported by means of flue gas pre-scrubbing and cooling, multi-stage intercooling and column-top demisting, the method of the present invention achieves efficient capture of contaminants and CO.sub.2. According to the invention, the absorption process is decoupled from the desorption process, and the coordinated control of temperature-pH-liquid-gas ratio and rich liquid flow-desorption temperature in all cycles is carried out to realize the synergistic capture-regeneration-concentration of contaminants and CO.sub.2 with high efficiency and low energy consumption, thereby reducing the high cost of the traditional method where a flue gas cleaning system and a carbon capture system operate separately.
