Abstract: A system for removing CO2 from a dilute gas mixture includes a frame including a plurality of structural members; at least one packing section including one or more packing sheets, the one or more packing sheets including a plurality of macrostructures; one or more basins positioned at least partially below the at least one packing section, the one or more basins configured to hold a CO2 capture solution; at least one fan positioned to circulate a CO2 laden gas through the at least one packing section; and a liquid distribution system configured to flow the CO2 capture solution onto the at least one packing section.
