Manufacturing and Analysis of Carbon Absorber Device

Mechanical Engineering

Global warming and global climatic changes resulted from anthropogenic CO2 emissions has become the main issue recently. Since, the beginning of industrial revolution, the concentration of CO2 has increased more than 30% in the atmosphere, and resulted in various catastrophic occurrences. Our research is focused on decreasing the level of CO2 from exhaust gases from heavy duty vehicles like trucks, bus etc by adsorption technology. The adsorption is carried out in an absorber like device containing a bed of carbon absorbing plates inside it through which the exhaust gases are passed. After adsorption we found a significant amount of CO2 reduction from exhaust gases with excellent vehicle efficiency. The type of CO2 adsorption is reversible that is physical adsorption is observed. The saturated bed of carbon absorb plates is again recharged or also replaced it again and again when plates gets corrosion, whether it is damage.
