Abstract: This invention relates to a method of fixing carbon dioxide by condensation polymerization in an acidic aqueous medium, thereby increasing fixation efficiency and remarkably reducing the volume of generated material compared to conventional carbon dioxide fixation methods; a polymer material prepared by the method; and a method of recovering carbon therefrom. According to the current invention, the method of fixing carbon dioxide is characterized by introducing carbon dioxide pressurized to a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure into a reactor containing a acidic aqueous medium, so that carbonic acid resulting from dissolving carbon dioxide is made into a polymer material by condensation polymerization, thereby fixing carbon dioxide, and heating the polymer material so as to recover carbon.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for production of bio-gas, capable of improving quality of a raw material to be fed thereto. Among the raw material, a part free from inhibitory materials is directly introduced an anaerobic digestion reactor while the other part containing the inhibitory materials is introduced into a first solid-liquid separator and separated into a solid-phase material free from the inhibitory materials and a liquid-phase material containing the inhibitory materials. The solid-phase material in the first solid-liquid separator is fed to the anaerobic digestion reactor after hydrolysis. A liquid waste in the anaerobic digestion reactor and a liquid-phase material in the first solid-liquid separator are concentrated by a sludge concentrator.
