Abstract
The method reported here provides a contribution to CO2 and combustion exhaust utilisation. A multifunctional system for gas removal was tested on various sources of exhaust (internal combustion engine, brown coal boiler, bituminous pulverised coal boiler, gas boiler, glass oven, VOC sources) in full-scale or by-pass gas flow volumes. A spontaneously-pulsing, direct-current electric discharge operating in a corona geometry was used. The discharge has strongly shining channels migrating quickly along the stressed electrode. The synergetic effect of electric discharge and heterogeneous catalysis on the organometallic part of the product formed on the non-stressed electrode was responsible for the specific character of the products. The final product of the process is a powder with a fractal structure on the microscopic level with low specific mass and insoluble in water. The main component (95%) of the solid product is an amorphous condensate of amino acids with about 5% of organometallic compound with catalytic properties. The product was analysed using IR absorption spectrometry, microscopic photography, HPLC and thermogravimetry. The following amino acids were observed in the final product: alanine, serine, glycine, aspartic acid, lysine, arginine, methionine, histidine.
