Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A reactor for adsorbing CO 2 from a fluid stream includes a reactor housing having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The reactor also includes an inlet ceramic honeycomb structure and an outlet ceramic honeycomb structure positioned inside the reactor housing. The inlet and outlet ceramic honeycomb structures have a plurality of partition walls extending in an axial direction thereby forming a plurality of flow channels and comprises a material that forms bonds with CO 2 to adsorb the CO 2 . The inlet ceramic honeycomb structure is capable of adsorbing an inlet quantity of CO 2 and the outlet ceramic honeycomb structure is capable of adsorbing an outlet quantity of CO 2 . The inlet quantity of CO 2 is greater than the outlet quantity of CO 2 .

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A reactor for adsorbing CO 2 from a fluid stream, the reactor comprising: a reactor housing comprising a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet; an inlet ceramic honeycomb structure positioned inside the reactor housing at a position proximate to the fluid inlet, wherein: the inlet ceramic honeycomb structure has a plurality of partition walls extending in an axial direction thereby forming a plurality of flow channels; and the inlet ceramic honeycomb st…
