A honeycomb rotor recovery and concentration device recovers carbon dioxide gas from flue gas and the like. A carbon dioxide sorption honeycomb rotor is rotated in a casing that is separately sealed at least into a sorption zone and a desorption zone, and the honeycomb in the sorption zone is brought into contact with a raw material gas containing carbon dioxide in a wet state to sorb carbon dioxide gas. A desorption circulation circuit circulates from an outlet to an inlet of the desorption zone. Water supplied to a heater in the circuit is evaporated to form saturated steam, which is supplied to the desorption zone. In the desorption zone, carbon dioxide gas is desorbed by contact with the saturated steam. The design may make it possible to use low-temperature exhaust heat, and this may achieve reduction in size, high performance and high efficiency at the same time.

The present invention is based on the use of surface adsorption to capture CO.sub.2 molecules from air, without requiring the need for bulk absorption within the bulk of the sorbent. Since surface adsorption is a much faster process than bulk absorption, the present invention offers a greatly increased CO.sub.2 capture rate, as well as a greatly improved energy efficiency, over conventional systems. The invention involves the use of a molecular monolayer of CO.sub.2 sorbent, a process and a system for capturing CO.sub.2 from air employing such a molecular monolayer of CO.sub.2 sorbent.

A direct air capture of CO2 system and method including a chamber defining a microwave cavity, a microwave heating unit coupled to the chamber in electromagnetic communication, and a sorbent structure carried within the chamber. The sorbent structure includes one or more porous support structures each having a plurality of pores and channels formed therethrough providing a large area of surfaces coated by nanoparticles of CO2 adsorbent material. A motor fan creates an air flow through the chamber and the sorbent structure carried therein. CO2 in the air is adsorbed by the CO2 adsorbent material. The microwave heating unit heats the CO2 adsorbent material to desorb the CO2 for further sequestration or value-added utilization.

A dehumidification air conditioner reduces carbon dioxide levels in a low humidity workroom. Cooling dehumidification is performed on outdoor air in a pre-air-cooler to produce pre-cooled air, which is branched such that a first part passes through a processing zone of an adsorption rotor which can remove carbon dioxide and humidity simultaneously, and a second part passes through a purge zone of the adsorption rotor. Air which passed through the processing zone is supplied to a low humidity workroom. Air which passed though the purge zone of the adsorption rotor is mixed with outdoor air and then heated with a reproduction heater to produce heated air. The heated air is sent to a reproduction zone of the adsorption rotor, to simultaneously remove carbon dioxide and humidity from the adsorption rotor and produce an exhaust stream which exhausted out of the device.
