The invention relates to a cyclic method for capturing and utilizing CO.sub.2 contained in a gas stream. The method uses three different materials, a first solid material, a second solid material and a CO.sub.2 sorbent material.

In a first step a first gas stream comprising CO.sub.2 and at least one reductant is brought in contact with the three materials, resulting in an outlet stream comprising water. In a second step, the captured CO.sub.2 from the first step is released and converted to CO to produce a CO rich outlet stream. The invention further relates to an installation for capturing and utilizing CO.sub.2.

Generating methane by adding hydrogen to CO.sub.2 in exhaust gas discharged a from cement production facility or CO.sub.2 that is separated and recovered from the exhaust gas, and using the methane as an alternative fuel to fossil fuel such as coal, petroleum, natural gas and the like, by methanation of CO.sub.2 in the exhaust gas from the cement production facility that includes exhaust gas originated from lime stone not from the fossil oil and effectively utilizing it, it is possible to reduce usage of the fossil fuel, suppress CO.sub.2 originated from energy, and improve an effect of reducing greenhouse gas.

A hydrocarbon reclamator consists of a closed chamber having an exhaust inlet port, a hydrogen inlet port, and a hydrocarbon outlet port. A magnetic flux is generated at the base of the closed chamber and a rotor is suspended by the magnetic flux within the closed chamber. The rotor is formed as a Tesla turbine having axially spaced discs concentrically mounted on a central shaft, a catalyst is formed on surfaces of the discs, and flow holes are formed through the discs. Venturi forces direct gas to release kinetic energy against the discs, so that hydrogen entering the chamber combines with carbon entering the chamber to form a hydrocarbon that exits the chamber via the hydrocarbon outlet port.

The invention relates to a catalyst comprising a mixture of AFX-structure and BEA-structure zeolites and at least one additional transition metal, to the process for preparing same and to the use thereof for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx in the presence of a reducing agent such as NH.sub.3 or H.sub.2.

Processes for reducing carbon monoxide levels in a carbon dioxide rich gaseous stream. The carbon dioxide rich stream is passed to a preferential oxidation zone to selectively convert carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide. Excess oxygen is consumed by reacting with hydrogen, which may be added or controlled based on PSA operating conditions upstream of the preferential oxidation zone. The preferential oxidation zone may be contained within a bed of a dryer.

Provision of a gas production apparatus that can stably produce a product gas with carbon monoxide as its main component from a separated gas including carbon dioxide as a main component.

The gas production apparatus 1 consists of the following: a separation and capture section 5, which separates and captures separated gas containing mainly of carbon dioxide from the exhaust gas taken from the line of the exhaust gas equipment; a reaction section 4 including at least a reactor, which is connected to downstream of the separation and capture section 5, contains a reducing agent that generates carbon monoxide through a reduction reaction of carbon dioxide brought into contact with the separated gas, and is capable of separating at least some of oxygen atoms separated from carbon dioxide; a pressure regulating section 7 connected to downstream of the reactor 4 to regulate the pressure of the separated gas supplied to the reactor; and the flow regulating section 6 connected on the upstream of the separation and capture section 5 and regulates the flow rate of the separated gas supplied to the reactor.

The invention relates to a method for separating off and immobilizing carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide from an exhaust gas (18). In the method, a stoichiometric ratio of carbon dioxide to hydrogen, and/or of carbon monoxide to hydrogen, which is suitable for a methanation reaction is set by virtue of a corresponding quantity of hydrogen or alternatively carbon dioxide and/or possibly carbon monoxide being supplied, with an auxiliary gas (24), to the exhaust gas (18). Subsequently, a catalytic reaction is performed in which, as starting products, carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide and hydrogen are converted into methane and water. The methane is separated off from the product of the catalytic reaction and is subsequently split into carbon and hydrogen, wherein the carbon takes solid form. The split-off carbon is collected and disposed of.
