Abstract: A CO2 recovery device includes: a cooling tower into which an exhaust gas containing carbon dioxide is introduced to cool the exhaust gas; and an absorption tower into which the exhaust gas cooled in the cooling tower is introduced and which brings the exhaust gas into contact with an absorption liquid to remove the carbon dioxide from the exhaust gas, in which the absorption tower has an absorption tower body through which the exhaust gas is flowable and which has a tubular shape, and a demister that is disposed inside the absorption tower body and is configured to remove mist contained in the exhaust gas as the exhaust gas flows therethrough, and the CO2 recovery device further comprises a flow velocity regulating section that regulates the flow velocity of the exhaust gas flowing through the demister to be within a predetermined range.
