Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a carbon dioxide adsorption and release device, which has high adsorptivity, and also consumes low energy upon adsorption and desorption. The carbon dioxide adsorption and release device is characterized by including a pair of electrodes (electrodeand electrode) provided opposite to each other; an electrolytefilled between the respective electrodesandof the pair of electrodes; and a porous bodyprovided on the electrodeof the pair of electrodes, wherein the electrolyteabsorbs carbon dioxide thereby dissolving the carbon dioxide therein, and thus enabling formation of carbonic acid ions or hydrogen carbonate ions; and the carbonic acid ions or hydrogen carbonate ions are electrostatically adsorbed on a surface of the porous bodywhen a forward voltage is applied to the pair of electrodes by the porous body, and the carbonic acid ions or hydrogen carbonate ions are electrostatically released from a surface of the porous bodywhen a backward voltage is applied to the pair of electrodes.
