Description:[0017] Some embodiments of this disclosure, illustrating all its features, will now be discussed in detail. The words “comprising,” “having,” “containing,” and “including,” and other forms thereof, are intended to be equivalent in meaning and be open ended in that an item or items following any one of these words is not meant to be an exhaustive listing of such item or items, or meant to be limited to only the listed item or items. It must also be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
[0018] Although any systems and methods similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of embodiments of the present disclosure, the preferred, systems and methods are now described. Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings in which like numerals represent like elements throughout the several figures, and in which example embodiments are shown. Embodiments of the claims may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. The examples set forth herein are non-limiting examples and are merely examples among other possible examples.
[0019] The present invention discloses a method for converting industrial CO2 emissions into high-value chemicals. The method may utilize catalytic, electrochemical, and biological processes to efficiently capture, convert, and refine CO2 into commercially valuable products such as ethanol, urea, and other chemicals.
[0020] FIG. 1 illustrates a flow chart of a method (100) for converting industrial CO2 emissions into high-value chemicals, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0021] At operation 102, capturing CO2 emissions from industrial processes. The method involve capturing CO2 emissions generated by industrial activities. The CO2 may be collected from various sources, including power plants, chemical manufacturing facilities, and other industries that produce large quantities of CO2 as a byproduct. The CO2 may be collected via carbon capture systems, such as absorption towers or membrane separators, which efficiently extract CO2 from flue gases before they are released into the environment. Carbon capture technologies such as absorption or membrane-based systems may be employed to extract CO2 from industrial emissions before the gas is released into the atmosphere.
[0022] At operation 104, converting CO2 into high-value chemicals by using catalytic, electrochemical, and biological methods. Once the CO2 has been captured, the next step may involve converting the CO2 into high-value chemicals. This conversion may occur via multiple processes, including catalytic methods, electrochemical methods, or biological methods. These may utilize catalysts such as nickel or copper to drive the chemical reactions that convert CO2 into valuable products, including ethanol.
[0023] For example, electrochemical cells may be used to apply electrical energy to CO2, facilitating the production of chemicals such as urea. Electrolytes such as potassium bicarbonate may enhance the reaction efficiency.
[0024] For example, biocatalysts, including carbonic anhydrase and methanogenic bacteria, may be used to accelerate the conversion of CO2 into valuable compounds such as methane or urea. These biological agents may improve the overall efficiency of the process by promoting faster reaction rates.
[0025] At operation 106, isolating and purifying the high-value chemicals by using a separation unit, wherein the high-value chemicals comprise ethanol, urea, and other valuable chemicals. After the CO2 has been converted into valuable chemicals, the method may include isolating and purifying the desired products. A separation unit may be employed to extract chemicals such as ethanol and urea from the reaction mixture. The separation process may involve techniques such as distillation, filtration, or crystallization to ensure that the final products are of high purity and meet industrial standards. The isolated chemicals may then be packaged and transported for commercial use.
[0026] It should be noted that the method for converting industrial CO2 emissions into high-value chemicals. thereof in any case could undergo numerous modifications and variants, all of which are covered by the same innovative concept; moreover, all of the details can be replaced by technically equivalent elements. In practice, the components used, as well as the numbers, shapes, and sizes of the components can be of any kind according to the technical requirements. The scope of protection of the invention is therefore defined by the attached claims.
