Global warming is one of the major concerns of the modernera. It is caused bythe surplus presence ofgases like CO2, CH4, NOx, and SF6, which can entrap the sun’s warmth within our atmosphere leading to the greenhouse effect. Past surveys showthat the atmospheric CO2levels, which has been on a steady rise due to burning of fossil fuels as well as incomplete combustion in IC engines, is the key factor to the climate change problem the world is facing right now. One of the ways to reduce thisCO2crisis is to capture carbon emissions at the source itself. This paper deals with a process to reduce CO2 levels by employing a combination of zeolite, activated carbon and monoethanolamine (MEA) with the help of Aluminium fine wire mesh. The properties of zeolite 5A have been adapted in capturing the CO2 due to their high micro porous structure and MEA due to its high CO2 absorbing characteristics. A slurry is prepared and the aluminium wire mesh is dipped in it, dried and is later kept in the exhaust pipe for the results. A comparison of the carbon emission with and without mesh is tabulated and presented with discussions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
