Abstract

A process for capturing carbon dioxide (CO) present in a gas stream is provided. The process includes providing a cooling tower that treats a gas stream. The gas stream including COis introduced into the cooling tower. A liquid carbon-dioxide-capturing media is released into the gas stream in the cooling tower. The carbon-dioxide-capturing media absorbs the COin the gas stream, and the carbon-dioxide-capturing media including the absorbed COis collected. An absorber for capture of COin a gas stream is also provided. The absorber includes a cooling tower for treatment of a gas stream including CO. The cooling tower includes an input for the gas stream, an outlet for a treated gas stream, and a sprayer that releases liquid carbon-dioxide-capturing media into the cooling tower. The carbon-dioxide-capturing media absorbs the COfrom the gas stream in the cooling tower. A collector collects the carbon-dioxide-capturing media including absorbed CO.
