(2) DESCRIPCIÓN DEL ARTE PREVIO (2) DESCRIPTION OF PRIOR ART
[0005] Hoy en día son ampliamente reconocidos los problemas de contaminación ambiental, en particular, la contaminación atmosférica o contaminación del aire. Diversos estudios han demostrado que una de cada nueve muertes en todo el mundo es resultado de condiciones relacionadas con dicha contaminación (World Health Organization, “Public health, environmental and social determinantes of health (PHE)- Ambient air pollution: A global assessment of exposure and burden of disease 2016). [0005] Environmental pollution problems, in particular atmospheric pollution or air pollution, are now widely recognized. Various studies have shown that one in nine deaths worldwide are the result of conditions related to such pollution (World Health Organization, “Public health, environmental and social determinants of health (PHE)- Ambient air pollution: A global assessment of exposure and burden of disease 2016).
[0006] La contaminación del aire se define como la presencia de sustancias en la atmósfera en una cantidad que implique molestias o riesgo para la salud de las personas y de los demás seres vivos (Martínez -Ataz, E.; Díaz-de Mera Morales, Y. “Contaminación atmosférica” , Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, 2004, pg.13). [0006] Air pollution is defined as the presence of substances in the atmosphere in an amount that implies discomfort or risk to the health of people and other living beings (Martínez -Ataz, E.; Díaz-de Mera Morales , Y. "Atmospheric pollution", University of Castilla-La Mancha, 2004, pg.13).
[0007] La contaminación del aire es uno de los problemas más severos a nivel mundial, tanto en ambientes interiores como exteriores. El aire de interiores es el aire que circula en espacios confinados como oficinas, edificios residenciales y públicos, sótanos, garajes, plantas industriales, almacenes, túneles, autopistas, automóviles, entre otros (Bader, N.; Sager, U. “Schneiderwind, and A. Ouederni ”, Journal of Environmental Chemical Enginnering, 2009, 103005). La contaminación de dicho aire es la que más afecta a la población mundial debido a que se ha demostrado que los habitantes de las ciudades pasan entre el 58 y el 78% de su tiempo en un ambiente interior que se encuentra contaminado en mayor o menor grado. Por lo tanto, se puede afirmar que las concentraciones de contaminantes en el aire interior de dichas estructuras suelen ser de la misma magnitud que las encontradas habitualmente en el aire exterior (Solá, X. “Calidad del aire interior” - Introducción, Capítulo 44, Enciclopedia de Salud y Seguridad en el Trabajo, pg. 1). [0008] Los contaminantes químicos del aire interior pueden tomar forma de gases, vapores (inorgánicos y orgánicos) y de partículas, en donde los principales contaminantes químicos y más comunes en el aire interior son el dióxido de carbono (CO2), monóxido de carbono (CO), óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx), dióxido de azufre (SO2), gases de combustión inorgánicos y ozono (O3), compuestos orgánicos muy volátiles (gaseosos) (COMV), compuestos orgánicos volátiles (COV), compuestos orgánicos semivolátiles (COSV), o materia orgánica particulada (MOP) (Solá, X. “Calidad del aire interior” - Naturaleza de los contaminantes, Capítulo 44, Enciclopedia de Salud y Seguridad en el Trabajo, pg. 7). [0007] Air pollution is one of the most severe problems worldwide, both in indoor and outdoor environments. Indoor air is the air that circulates in confined spaces such as offices, residential and public buildings, basements, garages, industrial plants, warehouses, tunnels, highways, automobiles, among others (Bader, N.; Sager, U. “Schneiderwind, and A. Ouederni”, Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering, 2009, 103005). Air pollution is the one that most affects the world population because it has been shown that city dwellers spend between 58 and 78% of their time in an indoor environment that is polluted to a greater or lesser degree. . Therefore, it can be affirmed that the concentrations of pollutants in the interior air of said structures are usually of the same magnitude as those normally found in the exterior air (Solá, X. “Calidad del aire interior” - Introduction, Chapter 44, Encyclopedia of Health and Safety at Work, page 1). [0008] Chemical pollutants in indoor air can take the form of gases, vapors (inorganic and organic) and particulates, where the main and most common chemical pollutants in indoor air are carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), inorganic combustion gases and ozone (O 3 ), organic compounds very volatile (gas) (COMV), volatile organic compounds (VOC), semivolatile organic compounds (COSV), or particulate organic matter (MOP) (Solá, X. “Indoor air quality” - Nature of pollutants, Chapter 44, Encyclopedia Health and Safety at Work, page 7).
[0009] La cantidad de óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx) en los espacios interiores es alta debido a que pueden haber penetrado al interior desde el ambiente exterior o bien haberse formado dentro del edificio debido a la presencia de cocinas, espacios calefactados y calentadores de agua (que usan combustibles) que los proporcionan (Yang, W.; Lee, K.; Chung, M. “Characterization of indoor air quality using múltiple measurements of nitrogen dioxide”, Indoor Air, vol 14, 2004, pg. 105-11), por lo que la combinación de las contribuciones de NOx (NO2) presentes en microambientes interiores juntos con las emisiones generadas en la ciudad (vehículos y la industria en general) son a menudo más altas que las concentraciones al aire libre (Baxter, L.K.; Clougherty, J.E.; Laden, F.; Levy, J.I. “Predictors of concentration of nitrogen dioxide, fine particulate matter, and particle constituents inside of lower socioeconomic status urban homes” . J. Exposure Sci. Environ. Epidemiol, 2007, Vol 17, pg. 433-444). [0010] Debido a esta gran problemática la industria empezó a proponer o suministrar soluciones con el fin de disminuir o eliminar por completo los contaminantes químicos del aire interior para de esta manera mejorar la calidad de dicho aire y mejorar las condiciones de salud de la población mundial. [0011] El artículo “Initial efficiencies of air cleaners for the removal of nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds” se refiere al estudio de filtros purificadores de aire, en donde se reporta el uso de carbón activado, filtros HEPA, fibras de vidrio de borosilicato, precipitadores electrostáticos y catalizadores para la captura de diferentes contaminantes químicos, en donde se observan bajas tasas de captura, además de ser inespecífica para el NO2, con la formación posterior de compuestos orgánico volátiles (COV) (Daisey, J.M.; Hodgson, A. T. “Initial efficiencies of air cleaners for the removal of nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds” , Atmospheric Environment, 1989, vol. 23, No. 9, pg. 1885 y 1887). [0009] The amount of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in interior spaces is high because they may have entered the interior from the outside environment or have been formed inside the building due to the presence of kitchens, heated spaces and water heaters. (that use fuels) that provide them (Yang, W.; Lee, K.; Chung, M. “Characterization of indoor air quality using multiple measurements of nitrogen dioxide”, Indoor Air, vol 14, 2004, pg. 105-11 ), so the combined NOx (NO2) contributions present in indoor microenvironments together with emissions generated in the city (vehicles and general industry) are often higher than outdoor concentrations (Baxter, LK JE Clougherty, F. Laden, JI Levy “Predictors of concentration of nitrogen dioxide, fine particulate matter, and particle constituents inside of lower socioeconomic status urban homes.” J. Exposure Sci. Environ. Epidemiol, 2007, Vol 17 , pp. 433-444). [0010] Due to this great problem, the industry began to propose or provide solutions in order to reduce or completely eliminate chemical contaminants from indoor air in order to improve the quality of said air and improve the health conditions of the population. world. [0011] The article "Initial efficiencies of air cleaners for the removal of nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds" refers to the study of air purifying filters, where the use of activated carbon, HEPA filters, borosilicate glass fibers is reported. , electrostatic precipitators and catalysts for the capture of different chemical pollutants, where low rates of capture, in addition to being non-specific for NO2, with the subsequent formation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (Daisey, JM; Hodgson, AT “Initial efficiencies of air cleaners for the removal of nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds”, Atmospheric Environment, 1989, vol 23, No. 9, pg 1885 and 1887).
[0012] Por su parte, el documento “Development of an activated carbón filter to remove NO 2 and HONO in indoor air” reporta un pequeño filtro de aire a medida que se encuentra dentro de la cámara, en donde este filtro de aire consiste en un ventilador de 2.5 m3/min y un filtro de carbón activado (30 g dentro de un soporte, tamaño 120 x 120 x 10 mm). Adicionalmente, se reportan cuatro tipos de carbón activado comerciales, los cuales son activados con diferentes metales, incluidos K [KI, KOH, KNO3 y KMnC ], Cu [Cu(N03)2 3H20], Mn [Mn (CH3COO)2 4H20)], en donde dichos metales se unen a la superficie del carbón activado(Yoo, JY.; Park, CJ.; Kim, KY.; Son, Y-S.; Kang, C-M.; Wolfson, JM.; Jung, I-H.; Lee, S-E; and Koutrakis, P., “Development of an activated carbón filter to remove NO 2 and HONO in indoor air”, 2015, Journal of Hazardous Materials, Vol. 289, pg. 184-189). Sin embargo, el uso de carbón activado en cualquiera de sus formas, así como su activación con agentes químicos y regeneración por calor conduce a huellas de carbono y energías muy altas (evaluación del ciclo de vida del proceso completo), lo que trae consigo consecuencias ambientales devastadoras. Por otro lado, dicho reporte tecnológico captura los gases de manera laxa (adsorción o enlaces débiles), lo que implica una liberación de una fracción de los gases y, además, el proceso se ve afectado por la humedad del aire limitando aún más la aplicación. [0013] El documento “Light intensity dependence of the kinetics of the photocatalytic oxidation of nitrogen(II) oxide at the surface of T1O2 reporta modelos teóricos y cinéticos de transformación de NO, reduciendo la concentración de dichos contaminantes del aire gracias a su oxidación inducida por luz ultravioleta en presencia de oxígeno molecular y un material de construcción fotocatalíticamente activo que utiliza dióxido de titanio como fotocatalizador (Dillert, R.; Engel, A.; GroBe, J.; Lindner, P.; Bahnemann, D.W., “Light intensity dependence of the kinetics of the photocatalytic oxidation of nitrogen(II) oxideatthe surface of ΏO2”, Phys.Chem.Chem.Phys., 2013, Vol. 15, pg. 20876-20886). Sin embargo, como la mayoría de los sistemas fotocatalíticos, dicho proceso genera radicales y ozono, los cuales suelen conducir a subproductos nocivos, en donde además los catalizadores que se usan en dichos procesos suelen ser de vida corta promoviendo así un proceso de alto costo. [0014] Por su parte, el documento “A review of indoor air treatment technologies” se encuentra dirigido a una descripción general de las técnicas de tratamiento de contaminantes en aire interior, tales como filtración mecánica y eléctrica, adsorción, ozonización, fotolisis, oxidación fotocatalítica, procesos biológicos y separación de membranas. En particular, este documento menciona que cualquier sistema fotocatalítico disminuye la concentración de NOx del aire interior, pero por su parte genera radicales y ozono que suelen conducir a subproductos nocivos. De manera similar, este resalta que los mencionados métodos catalíticos suelen utilizar catalizadores en su mayoría de vida corta, lo cual produce un incremento en el costo del método de tratamiento. Por último, también se reporta que dado a que aún no existe una tecnología que pueda considerarse totalmente satisfactoria para lograr un aire interior "más limpio", sin la generación de subproductos tóxicos, se presta especial atención a las tecnologías de purificación combinadas o alternativas como lo son los sistemas híbridos catalíticos por plasma, híbridos sistemas de ozonización, sistemas de adsorción de biofiltro, entre otros. Estos sistemas parecen ser una buena oportunidad, ya que integran ventajas sinérgicas para lograr una buena calidad del aire interior (Luengas, A.; Barona, A.; Hort, C.; Gallastegui, G.; Platel, V.; Elias. A. “A review of indoor air treatment technologies” , Reviews in Environmental Science and Biotechnology, 2015, Vol. 14, pg. 499-522). [0015] El gran interés de crear dispositivos que permitan eliminar del aire interno el NO2 o HONO se ha incrementado con el paso del tiempo, ya que existen estudios que demuestran que estos compuestos tienen efectos adversos directos e indirectos para la salud, puesto que la exposición a largo plazo al NO2 se asocia con una mayor susceptibilidad a enfermedades del tracto respiratorio inferior (Folinsbee, L.J. “Human health effects of air pollution Environ. Health Perspect, 1992, Vol. 100, pg. 45-56) y (Neas, L.M.; Dockery, D.W.; Spengler, J.D.; Speizer, F.E.; Ferris. B.G., “Association of indoor nitrogen dioxide with respiratory symptoms and pulmonary function in children Am. ./. Epidemiol. , 1991, Vol. 134, pg. 204-219).[0012] For its part, the document "Development of an activated carbon filter to remove NO 2 and HONO in indoor air" reports a small air filter as it is inside the chamber, where this air filter consists of a 2.5 m 3 /min fan and an activated carbon filter (30 g inside a holder, size 120 x 120 x 10 mm). Additionally, four types of commercial activated carbon are reported, which are activated with different metals, including K [KI, KOH, KNO3 and KMnC ], Cu [Cu(N0 3 ) 2 3H 2 0], Mn [Mn (CH 3 COO) 2 4H 2 0)], where said metals are bound to the activated carbon surface (Yoo, JY.; Park, CJ.; Kim, KY.; Son, YS.; Kang, CM.; Wolfson, JM ., Jung, IH., Lee, SE, and Koutrakis, P., “Development of an activated carbon filter to remove NO 2 and HONO in indoor air”, 2015, Journal of Hazardous Materials, Vol. 189). However, the use of activated carbon in any of its forms, as well as its activation with chemical agents and regeneration by heat, leads to very high carbon footprints and energies (full process life cycle assessment), which brings with it consequences devastating environmental On the other hand, said technological report captures the gases in a lax way (adsorption or weak bonds), which implies a release of a fraction of the gases and, in addition, the process is affected by the humidity of the air, further limiting the application. . [0013] The document "Light intensity dependence of the kinetics of the photocatalytic oxidation of nitrogen(II) oxide at the surface of T1O2 reports theoretical and kinetic models of NO transformation, reducing the concentration of said air pollutants thanks to its induced oxidation by ultraviolet light in the presence of molecular oxygen and a building material photocatalytically using titanium dioxide as a photocatalyst (Dillert, R.; Engel, A.; GroBe, J.; Lindner, P.; Bahnemann, DW, “Light intensity dependence of the kinetics of the photocatalytic oxidation of nitrogen(II) oxideatthe surface of ΏO2”, Phys.Chem.Chem.Phys., 2013, Vol. 15, pg. 20876-20886). However, like most photocatalytic systems, this process generates radicals and ozone, which often lead to harmful by-products, where, in addition, the catalysts used in these processes are usually short-lived, thus promoting a high-cost process. [0014] For its part, the document "A review of indoor air treatment technologies" is aimed at a general description of the techniques for treating pollutants in indoor air, such as mechanical and electrical filtration, adsorption, ozonation, photolysis, oxidation photocatalytic, biological processes and membrane separation. In particular, this document mentions that any photocatalytic system lowers the NO x concentration of indoor air, but in turn generates radicals and ozone that often lead to harmful by-products. Similarly, it highlights that the aforementioned catalytic methods usually use mostly short-lived catalysts, which produces an increase in the cost of the treatment method. Finally, it is also reported that since there is still no technology that can be considered fully satisfactory to achieve "cleaner" indoor air, without the generation of toxic by-products, special attention is paid to combined or alternative purification technologies such as they are hybrid plasma catalytic systems, hybrid ozonation systems, biofilter adsorption systems, among others. These systems seem to be a good opportunity, since they integrate synergistic advantages to achieve good indoor air quality (Luengas, A.; Barona, A.; Hort, C.; Gallastegui, G.; Platel, V.; Elias. A. “A review of indoor air treatment technologies”, Reviews in Environmental Science and Biotechnology, 2015, Vol. 14, pp. 499-522). [0015] The great interest in creating devices that allow NO2 or HONO to be eliminated from the internal air has increased over time, since there are studies that show that these compounds have direct and indirect adverse effects on health, since the Long-term exposure to NO2 is associated with increased susceptibility to lower respiratory tract diseases (Folinsbee, LJ “Human health effects of air pollution Environ. Health Perspect, 1992, Vol. 100, pg. 45-56) and (Neas, LM, Dockery DW, Spengler JD, Speizer FE, Ferris BG, "Association of indoor nitrogen dioxide with respiratory symptoms and pulmonary function in children Am. ./. Epidemiol. , 1991, Vol. 134, pg. 204- 219).
Adicionalmente, se ha reportado que el NO2 se asoció con un mayor riesgo de mortalidad por enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (Meng, X.; Wang, C.; Cao, D.; Wong, C.-M.; Kan. H. “Short-term effect of ambient air pollution on COPD mortality in four Chínese cities”, Atmos. Environ , 2013, Vol. 77, pg. 149-154) y que la exposición al NO2 es un inductor potencial de enfermedades neurológicas (Li, FL; Chen, L.; Guo, Z.; Sang, N.; Li, G., “In vivo screening to determine neurological hazards of nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) using Wistar rats”, J. Hazard. Mater , 2012, Vol. 225-226, pg. 46-53). Por último, se ha demostrado que el HONO podría estar involucrado en la formación de nitrosaminas cancerígenas, afectar las membranas mucosas y la función pulmonar (Pitts Jr, J.N.; Grosjean, D.; Cauwenberghe, K.A.; Schmid, J.P.; Fritz. D.R., “Photooxidation of aliphatic amines under simulated atmospheric conditions: formation of nitrosamines, nitramines, amides and photochemical oxidant Environ. Sci. Technol. , 1978, Vol. 12, pg. 946-954) y (Rasmussen, T.R.; Brauer, M.; Kjaergaard. S., “Effects of nitrous acid exposure on human mucous membranes” , Am. J. Respir. Crit. Care Med 1995, Vol. 151, pg. Additionally, NO2 has been reported to be associated with an increased risk of mortality from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Meng, X.; Wang, C.; Cao, D.; Wong, C.-M.; Kan. H. “ Short-term effect of ambient air pollution on COPD mortality in four Chinese cities”, Atmos. Environ , 2013, Vol. 77, pg. 149-154) and that exposure to NO2 is a potential inducer of neurological diseases (Li, FL , Chen, L., Guo, Z., Sang, N., Li, G., “In vivo screening to determine neurological hazards of nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) using Wistar rats”, J. Hazard Mater, 2012, Vol 225-226, pp. 46-53). Finally, it has been shown that HONO could be involved in the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines, affect mucous membranes and lung function (Pitts Jr, JN; Grosjean, D.; Cauwenberghe, KA; Schmid, JP; Fritz. DR, "Photooxidation of aliphatic amines under simulated atmospheric conditions: formation of nitrosamines, nitramines, amides and photochemical oxidant Environ. Sci. Technol. , 1978, Vol. 12, pg. 946-954) and (Rasmussen, TR; Brauer, M.; Kjaergaard S., “Effects of nitrous acid exposure on human mucous membranes”, Am J Respir Crit Care Med 1995, Vol 151, pg.

[0022] El documento W02012/108060 se encuentra dirigido a un catalizador capaz de exhibir un rendimiento de purificación de NOx a baja temperatura y/o en una atmósfera oxidante, es decir, un catalizador de purificación de óxidos de nitrógeno compuesto por partículas que tienen un tamaño de partícula promedio de 0.2 a 100 nm que incluye átomos de oro y hierro en un estado de proximidad. [0023] A pesar de que la mayoría de los documentos anteriormente citados divulgan sistemas de captura de óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx), estos llevan a cabo dicha captura mediante procesos catalíticos. Por lo tanto, es importante mencionar que el presente desarrollo se encuentra dirigido a un sistema de convertidores no-catalíticos para la purificación del aire, en particular para la remoción de NOx (NO2), en donde el sistema de convertidores no-catalíticos comprende familias de convertidores químicos sólidos tales como hidróxidos metálicos y carbonatos. Cabe resaltar que los hidróxidos metálicos tienen propiedades radicalmente diferentes a los óxidos metálicos divulgados en el arte previo. Estos óxidos metálicos son usados para activar matrices o soportes tales como el “carbón activado ”, u otros complejos inorgánicos, usados en algunas de las patentes mencionadas. Adicionalmente, el sistema de convertidores no-catalíticos que proponemos facilita la separación de los productos generados, además, de que tiene una baja huella de carbono y energía, son estables y sus productos generados en la reacción de captura tiene un posible interés comercial. [0022] WO2012/108060 is directed to a catalyst capable of exhibiting NOx purification performance at low temperature and/or in an oxidizing atmosphere, that is, a nitrogen oxide purification catalyst composed of particles having an average particle size of 0.2 to 100 nm that includes gold and iron atoms in a close state. [0023] Despite the fact that most of the aforementioned documents disclose systems for capturing nitrogen oxides (NOx), they carry out said capture by means of catalytic processes. Therefore, it is important to mention that the present development is aimed at a system of non-catalytic converters for air purification, in particular for the removal of NOx (NO 2 ), where the system of non-catalytic converters comprises families of solid chemical converters such as metal hydroxides and carbonates. It should be noted that the metal hydroxides have radically different properties from the metal oxides disclosed in the prior art. These metal oxides are used to activate matrices or supports such as "activated carbon", or other inorganic complexes, used in some of the mentioned patents. Additionally, the system of non-catalytic converters that we propose facilitates the separation of the products generated, in addition, it has a low carbon and energy footprint, they are stable and their products generated in the capture reaction have a possible commercial interest.
[0024] Como se menciona anteriormente, los reportes comentados muestran sistemas para disminuir la concentración de óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx) en diversos campos de manera independiente. Sin embargo, los mismos presentan una serie de desventajas, como lo son la producción de compuestos secundarios generalmente tóxicos; el uso de metales preciosos de baja abundancia tales como oro, platino, paladio, etc., y de que además son de vida corta. Por otro lado, usan soluciones líquidas o acuosas que tienen una alta complejidad de manejo tanto a nivel de salud, ambiente, diseño ingenieril, entre otros; el uso de matrices o materiales de carbón activado con baja eficiencia de captura y huellas de carbono y energía elevada. Por todo lo anterior, el presente desarrollo propone un sistema de captura a bajas temperaturas que permite remover específicamente los óxidos de nitrógeno (NO2), que afectan la salud medioambiental y humana, en donde la inactivación de estos se lleva a cabo en un solo paso sin requerir energía, obteniendo una huella de carbono y energía muy baja. Por otro lado, es un sistema de captura económicamente viable, en donde no se liberan compuestos secundarios tóxicos o perjudiciales para la salud. [0024] As mentioned above, the reports discussed show systems to independently reduce the concentration of nitrogen oxides (NO x ) in various fields. However, they have a series of disadvantages, such as the production of generally toxic secondary compounds; the use of precious metals of low abundance such as gold, platinum, palladium, etc., and that they are also short-lived. On the other hand, they use liquid or aqueous solutions that have a high management complexity both at the level of health, environment, engineering design, among others; the use of activated carbon matrices or materials with low capture efficiency and high energy and carbon footprints. For All of the above, the present development proposes a capture system at low temperatures that allows the specific removal of nitrogen oxides (NO2), which affect environmental and human health, where the inactivation of these is carried out in a single step without require energy, obtaining a very low carbon and energy footprint. On the other hand, it is an economically viable capture system, in which secondary compounds that are toxic or harmful to health are not released.

DESCRIPCIÓN DETALLADA DE LA INVENCIÓN [0035] La presente invención corresponde a un sistema de captura (1), como se muestra en la Figura 1, para eliminar contaminantes del aire que comprende una o más entradas de gases (2) ubicadas en la parte inferior del sistema de captura (1), uno o más filtros de aire (3) conectados a la parte superior de una o más entradas de gases (2), uno o más ventiladores de impulsión (4) conectados a la parte superior de uno o más filtros de aire (3), uno o más cartuchos (10) ubicados en la superficie superior de uno o más ventiladores de impulsión (4), uno o más convertidores químicos (5) ubicados dentro del cartucho (10), una o más placas de material sin convertidores químicos (6) ubicadas dentro del cartucho (10) y conectadas a la superficie superior o inferior de uno o más convertidores químicos (5) uno o más ventiladores de extracción (7) ubicados en la superficie superior de uno o más cartuchos (10), y una o más salidas de gases (8) conectadas con la superficie superior de uno o más ventiladores de extracción (7), en donde los convertidores químicos se encuentran en estado sólido. [0036] Para efectos de la presente invención el sistema de captura (1) se refiere a un dispositivo que permite la eliminación o disminución de contaminantes que se encuentran en el aire de interiores o exteriores. Preferiblemente, el sistema de captura (1) permite la eliminación de contaminantes en aire de interiores. Particularmente, el aire de interiores se refiere al aire que circula en espacios confinados como oficinas, edificios residenciales y públicos, sótanos, garajes, plantas industriales, almacenes, túneles, autopistas, automóviles, entre otros; y el aire de exteriores se refiere al aire libre que circula en espacios abiertos como la ciudad, los bosques, ríos, el mar, a las afueras de los edificios, entre otros. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0035] The present invention corresponds to a capture system (1), as shown in Figure 1, to remove air pollutants comprising one or more gas inlets (2) located in the lower part of the capture system (1), one or more air filters (3) connected to the top of one or more gas inlets (2), one or more supply fans (4) connected to the top of one or more more air filters (3), one or more cartridges (10) located on the upper surface of one or more supply fans (4), one or more chemical converters (5) located inside the cartridge (10), one or more material plates without chemical converters (6) located within the cartridge (10) and connected to the top or bottom surface of one or more chemical converters (5) one or more exhaust fans (7) located on the top surface of one or more cartridges (10), and one or more gas outlets (8) connected to the su upper surface of one or more extraction fans (7), where the chemical converters are in solid state. [0036] For the purposes of the present invention, the capture system (1) refers to a device that allows the elimination or reduction of pollutants found in indoor or outdoor air. Preferably, the capture system (1) allows the removal of pollutants in indoor air. In particular, indoor air refers to the air that circulates in spaces confined such as offices, residential and public buildings, basements, garages, industrial plants, warehouses, tunnels, highways, automobiles, among others; and outdoor air refers to the free air that circulates in open spaces such as the city, forests, rivers, the sea, outside buildings, among others.
[0037] Para efectos de la presente invención los contaminantes se refieren a un material particulado (MP) y nanopartículas (NPs) que están suspendidas en el aire y que pueden afectar a la salud de las personas, de la flora y de la fauna del planeta. En particular, el material particulado (MP) se refiere a todas las partículas sólidas, líquidas y gaseosas que se encuentran suspendidas en el aire con un diámetro aproximadamente de 10 mieras o menos. Por su parte las nanopartículas son las que tienen un tamaño de 1 a 100 nm y se producen de forma natural en caso de incendios forestales, erupciones volcánicas, etc., y fuentes antropogénicas. [0038] Dentro del material particulado (MP) se encuentran los óxidos de azufre, el sulfuro de hidrógeno, los óxidos de nitrógeno, los óxidos de carbono, los hidrocarburos, los oxidantes, los compuestos halogenados, los metales y los compuestos orgánicos. [0037] For the purposes of the present invention, pollutants refer to particulate matter (PM) and nanoparticles (NPs) that are suspended in the air and that can affect the health of people, flora and fauna of the environment. planet. In particular, particulate matter (PM) refers to all solid, liquid and gaseous particles that are suspended in the air with a diameter of approximately 10 microns or less. For their part, nanoparticles are those that have a size of 1 to 100 nm and are produced naturally in the event of forest fires, volcanic eruptions, etc., and anthropogenic sources. [0038] Within the particulate matter (PM) are sulfur oxides, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen oxides, carbon oxides, hydrocarbons, oxidants, halogenated compounds, metals and organic compounds.
[0039] Particularmente, los óxidos de azufre son compuestos químicos formados por átomos de azufre y de oxígeno, en donde los óxidos de azufre más importantes por lo que respecta a la contaminación atmosférica son el dióxido de azufre (SO2) y el trióxido de azufre (SO3). Por su parte, los óxidos de nitrógeno forman un importante grupo de gases contaminantes, y aunque hay diversos, los más importantes, en cuanto a sus efectos contaminantes, son el dióxido de nitrógeno (NO2) y el óxido nítrico (NO). En las zonas de gran aglomeración de tránsito, los automóviles llegan a producir cerca del 60% del total de óxidos de nitrógeno, por lo que estos gases originan la disminución de la visibilidad, la corrosión de materiales y la disminución en el crecimiento de algunas especies vegetales de importancia agrícola. Asimismo, los óxidos de carbono son otra familia de contaminantes, en donde los principales son el monóxido de carbono (CO) y el dióxido de carbono (CO2). Adicionalmente, los hidrocarburos son compuestos orgánicos formados exclusivamente por carbono e hidrógeno, en donde el metano es el hidrocarburo más abundante en la atmósfera, este se oxida dando lugar al CO2 y vapor de agua, gases de importante efecto invernadero. Además, los hidrocarburos pueden reaccionar con los óxidos de nitrógeno, bajo condiciones de fuerte radiación solar y producir la aparición del fenómeno de la niebla fotoquímica. De manera similar, los oxidantes son compuestos químicos líquidos o sólidos que fácilmente liberan oxígeno, en donde además dichos compuestos oxidan a otra sustancia provocando en esta una pérdida de electrones. El principal oxidante es el ozono, el cual es una sustancia cuya molécula está compuesta por tres átomos de oxígeno, formada al disociarse los dos átomos que componen el gas oxígeno, y este aparece en forma de niebla fotoquímica. [0039] Particularly, sulfur oxides are chemical compounds made up of sulfur and oxygen atoms, where the most important sulfur oxides with regard to atmospheric pollution are sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) and carbon trioxide. sulfur (SO 3 ). For their part, nitrogen oxides form an important group of polluting gases, and although there are several, the most important, in terms of their polluting effects, are nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) and nitric oxide (NO). In areas of great traffic agglomeration, automobiles produce about 60% of the total nitrogen oxides, so these gases cause decreased visibility, corrosion of materials and decreased growth of some species. agriculturally important vegetables. Likewise, carbon oxides are another family of pollutants, where the main ones are carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). Additionally, hydrocarbons are organic compounds formed exclusively by carbon and hydrogen, where methane is the most abundant hydrocarbon in the atmosphere, it oxidizes giving rise to CO 2 and water vapor, gases with an important greenhouse effect. In addition, hydrocarbons can react with nitrogen oxides under conditions of strong solar radiation and produce the appearance of the phenomenon of photochemical fog. Similarly, oxidants are liquid or solid chemical compounds that easily release oxygen, where these compounds also oxidize another substance, causing it to lose electrons.

EJEMPLOS Ejemplo 1 : evaluación experimental de la captura de NO? a una concentración tóxica. EXAMPLES Example 1: experimental evaluation of the capture of NO? at a toxic concentration.
[0110] Un ejemplo del sistema de captura (1) consiste en el uso de láminas de convertidores químicos (5) seleccionados de (NFL^CCb sólido (familia de carbonatos) y Al(OH)3 sólido (familia de hidróxidos), en donde dichas láminas de convertidores químicos (5) se encuentran en capas de 1 g, respectivamente (ver Figura 6). Estas láminas de convertidores químicos (5) se colocaron sobre láminas porosas a lo largo de un tubo Falcón de 50 mL con pines para la entrada de gases (2) y salida de gases (8). La cantidad de gas utilizadas para los estudios de captura del NO2 fue diluido en nitrógeno hasta una concentración de 110 ppm y esta se estabilizó en el sistema de captura (1) por un tiempo aproximado de 30 minutos para alcanzar la condición de “flujo estable”. Particularmente, el flujo másico utilizado durante la experiencia fue de 1.3 L/min (a dicha concentración) y la temperatura promedio registrada por el sistema de captura (1) durante los experimentos fue de 20 °C. El tiempo que se hizo pasar, la mezcla de gases, a través del sistema de captura (1) fue de 10 min. [0110] An example of the capture system (1) consists of the use of sheets of chemical converters (5) selected from (NFL^CCb solid (family of carbonates) and Al(OH)3 solid (family of hydroxides), in where said sheets of chemical converters (5) are in layers of 1 g, respectively (see Figure 6).These sheets of chemical converters (5) were placed on porous sheets along a 50 mL Falcon tube with pins for gas inlet (2) and gas outlet (8).The amount of gas used for the NO2 capture studies was diluted in nitrogen to a concentration of 110 ppm and this was stabilized in the capture system (1) by an approximate time of 30 minutes to reach the "stable flow" condition. Particularly, the mass flow used during the experiment was 1.3 L/min (at said concentration) and the average temperature recorded by the capture system (1) during the experiments was 20 ° C. The time that was done pa sar, the gas mixture, through the capture system (1) was 10 min.
[0111] El sistema general de instrumentación empleado para evaluar la capacidad de captura de las láminas de convertidores químicos (5) fue un sistema de sensores de gases (HORIBA Multi-Component Gas Analyzer / VA-5112G), con un mezclador (Environics Gas Dilution, System Series 4040), un adecuador de muestras (M&C Gas Conditioning Unit with Temperature controller Series CSS); dos sistemas de controladores de flujo (Precisión Gas Mass Flow Controller MCS-Series / M- Series) y el equipo se manejó con el software C02REMO. [0111] The general instrumentation system used to evaluate the capture capacity of the chemical converter sheets (5) was a gas sensor system (HORIBA Multi-Component Gas Analyzer / VA-5112G), with a mixer (Environics Gas Dilution, System Series 4040), a sampler (M&C Gas Conditioning Unit with Temperature controller Series CSS); two flow controller systems (Precision Gas Mass Flow Controller MCS-Series / M-Series) and the equipment was managed with the C02REMO software.
[0112] En la Figura 8 se pueden apreciar los resultados de la prueba de captura en 2 fases principales. En primer lugar, la fase 1 muestra una fase de estabilización de la mezcla de gases (N2 + NO2) hasta 110 ppm (1.3 L/min) la cual se llevó a cabo por 30 min “condición de flujo estable” . En segundo lugar, en la fase 2 se logra evidenciar que desde el primer momento que pasa la mezcla de gases a través del sistema de captura, la pendiente (Figura 8) disminuye significativamente hasta un valor más bajo. Este resultado evidencia la capacidad de captura que presentan las láminas de convertidores químicos (4) con una eficiencia aproximada al 90%, es decir que de los 110 ppm (1.3 L/min) que entran o pasan por el sistema convertidor, al salir de este, el sensor HORIBA de NO2 sólo detecta 10 ppm. [0112] Figure 8 shows the results of the capture test in 2 main phases. First, phase 1 shows a stabilization phase of the gas mixture (N2 + NO2) up to 110 ppm (1.3 L/min) which was carried out for 30 min "steady flow condition". Secondly, in phase 2 it is possible to show that from the first moment that the gas mixture passes through the capture system, the slope (Figure 8) decreases significantly to a lower value. This result demonstrates the capture capacity of the chemical converter sheets (4) with an efficiency of approximately 90%, that is to say that of the 110 ppm (1.3 L/min) that enter or pass through the converter system, when leaving this, the HORIBA NO2 sensor only detects 10 ppm.
Ejemplo 2 Example 2
[0113] Resultados semejantes a los plasmados en el Ejemplo 1 fueron observados con otros convertidores químicos (5) no catalíticos de las familias de carbonatos e hidróxidos, como se muestra a continuación: [0113] Results similar to those shown in Example 1 were observed with other non-catalytic chemical converters (5) of the families of carbonates and hydroxides, as shown below:
• Mg(OH)2, LiOH, KOH, y los otros metales correspondientes de la familia de hidróxidos en estado sólido en la primera lámina del sistema experimental. • Mg(OH)2, LiOH, KOH, and the other corresponding metals of the hydroxide family in the solid state in the first layer of the experimental system.
• Con cualquiera de los carbonatos (unido a los diferentes metales) en la lámina 2 del sistema estudiado. • Con las distintas mezclas, en distintas proporciones, de las distintas familias de los convertidores mencionados en estado sólido. • With any of the carbonates (attached to the different metals) in sheet 2 of the studied system. • With the different mixes, in different proportions, of the different families of the aforementioned solid-state converters.
• Incluso los resultados con sólo uno, de cualquiera de las familias (en estado sólido), también tiene la capacidad de disminuir el NO2 de la corriente de gases. • Even the results with only one, from any of the families (in solid state), also have the ability to reduce NO2 from the gas stream.
[0114] Esto evidencia que la captura del NO2 puede ser llevada a cabo de manera eficiente con los distintos tipos de láminas de convertidores químicos (5) sólidos (mencionados) de manera individual, o cualquiera de sus mezclas, a temperatura ambiente, lo cual sugiere que dicho sistema de captura (1) tiene aplicación para ambientes interiores como en exteriores bajo condiciones ambientales con la ayuda de un sistema de impulsión convencional de aire que permita el contacto directo con tales láminas de convertidores químicos (5). [0115] Por las razones anteriores, se evidencia que el sistema de captura (1) de NO2 directa del aire es fácil y práctico de manejar para diversas aplicaciones, de ingeniería de manejo de aire, en espacios interiores y también para sistemas de purificación en ciudades. Además, es de huella de carbono y energía muy bajo, lo cual implica que, al mismo tiempo es económico, ambientalmente inocuo y no se liberan compuestos secundarios tóxicos o perjudiciales para la salud. [0114] This shows that the capture of NO2 can be carried out efficiently with the different types of sheets of chemical converters (5) solids (mentioned) individually, or any of their mixtures, at room temperature, which suggests that said capture system (1) has application for indoor and outdoor environments under environmental conditions with the help of a conventional air drive system that allows direct contact with such sheets of chemical converters (5). [0115] For the above reasons, it is evident that the direct NO2 capture system (1) from the air is easy and practical to handle for various applications, air handling engineering, in interior spaces and also for purification systems in cities. In addition, it has a very low carbon and energy footprint, which means that, at the same time, it is economical, environmentally friendly and does not release secondary compounds that are toxic or harmful to health.
