Abstract: An apparatus that separates and recovers CO2 from a CO2 absorbent that has absorbed CO2 includes a regeneration tower configured to apply heat to the CO2 absorbent that has absorbed CO2, configured to separate and remove CO2 from the CO2 absorbent, configured to exhaust CO2 gas, and configured to regenerate the CO2 absorbent, a plurality of compressors configured to compress the CO2 gas exhausted from the regeneration tower, a dehydration device provided between the plurality of compressors and configured to remove moisture from the compressed CO2, and a line configured to supply air or N2 gas into the dehydration device to preliminarily operate the dehydration device until a stable state is achieved before starting the compressor.

Abstract: A pair of sprockets for use in a double chain and sprocket coupling for transmission of torque between shafts which are in approximate axial alignment with each other, and the abutting ends of which are closely spaced. Each of the sprockets is formed as one piece, and then cut into halves but for a web which is broken to separate the halve. The broken web serves to properly align and space the halves when placed over the end of a shaft to be coupled, and clamped thereon.
