Abstract: An absorption type carbon dioxide removal and concentration device can remove or concentrate a carbon dioxide throughout four seasons and can be manufactured with a relatively simple structure. The device includes a carbon dioxide removal rotor that holds a carbon dioxide absorbent. The rotor is divided into at least a treatment zone and a regeneration zone. Air to be treated is ventilated through the treatment zone, so that carbon dioxide contained in the air to be treated is absorbed by a holding absorbent of the rotor portion, so that the CO2 can be separated and removed from the air to be treated. In the regeneration zone, regeneration air is ventilated, so that the carbon dioxide absorbed by the holding absorbent in the treatment zone is desorbed with the regeneration air to regenerate the holding absorbent. A total heat exchanger recovers latent heat and sensible heat from the regeneration exhaust.

A carbon dioxide sorption honeycomb rotor is rotated in a casing that is separately sealed at least into a sorption zone and a desorption zone, and the honeycomb in the sorption zone is brought into contact with a raw material gas containing carbon dioxide in a wet state to sorb carbon dioxide gas.

Abstract: A dehumidification air conditioner reduces carbon dioxide levels in a low humidity workroom. Cooling dehumidification is performed on outdoor air in a pre-air-cooler to produce pre-cooled air, which is branched such that a first part passes through a processing zone of an adsorption rotor which can remove carbon dioxide and humidity simultaneously, and a second part passes through a purge zone of the adsorption rotor. Air which passed through the processing zone is supplied to a low humidity workroom. Air which passed though the purge zone of the adsorption rotor is mixed with outdoor air and then heated with a reproduction heater to produce heated air. The heated air is sent to a reproduction zone of the adsorption rotor, to simultaneously remove carbon dioxide and humidity from the adsorption rotor and produce an exhaust stream which exhausted out of the device.
