Abstract

The present invention is directed to a fixed unit equipped with solar cells and a respective cooling system that is used to capture soot particles from the hot air polluted with black carbon emitted from the chimneys of coal-fired power plants and from the exhaust pipes of large diesel engines as well. Such a unit can work on moving settings such as ships and vehicles. It can also be moved from one place to another on the surface of the earth. Its operating principle is similar to that of a water pipe (hubble- bubble) wherein soot-polluted air is (normally) drawn from a source, then (mechanically) pumped and injected into treated liquid in the unit tank, so that all carbon particles are separated from air. Afterwards, the unit draws the injected air from the tank liquid and (mechanically) expels it free of soot. The invention aims to capture soot particles from a source and prevent them from being emitted into the atmosphere because soot is considered the second most dangerous pollutant causing global warming.

Detailed description:
The present invention aims to protect the environment from black carbon particles (soot) because these particles are considered the second most dangerous environmental pollutant causing global warming and acid rain.
Means of Application:
The unit according to the invention shown in Figure 1 comprises:
- An injection pipe (1) made of iron, with a technically suitable diameter, and equipped with powerful propellers, that is connected to the exhaust pipes of diesel engines as well as to the chimneys of coal-fired power plants. When polluted air (normally) enters in this pipe, it is (mechanically) pumped by the propellers and injected it into operation tank liquid. Any available pipe can be selected so that it can withstand the pressure of the air pumped by the funnel in -tWin pipaation tank (2) which depends on the working principle of water pipe, in which the process of injecting soot-polluted air into the liquid takes place. Soot is separated from air, and the injected air is drawn and pumped into the atmosphere free of carbon particles. Therefore, the tank is preferably made of iron and should be completely isolated allowing no air in or out. It is further filled with water or any treated liquid to a certain height. From beneath, it is provided with a pipe with a pipe that withdraws the liquid after it is saturated with soot in conjunction with replacing it with a fresh liquid. The liquid saturated with soot is dealt with by the available means (for separating and collecting soot) using the techniques currently available in soot extraction plants.
- Suction pipe (3) for withdrawing the injected air, containing commercially available propellers and having simple technical calculations related to the amount (intake/suction) of air from the unit and the suction rate per minute/ second.
-A feeding pipe (4), a soot- saturated liquid intake pipe (5), solar cells (13) and commercially available cart (14) of the best specifications.
- A simple cooling system having a radiator (7) of any large size provided that it is highly efficient. It may contain any number of propellers sufficient to make the radiator work efficiently, and it is similar to car radiator system.
- A water pump (11) having the same specifications as the radiator pump and a cold water pipe (10) having the same specifications of the pipes transferring cold water from similar radiators.
-A heat conductive pipe network (12) made of copper, with a technically appropriate number, that is attached on one side to the cold pipe (10) and on the other side to the hot water pipe (9); it may be manufactured or prefabricated.
- The best available oils are used to paint the inner surface of the injection pipe so that soot particles do not stick to it.
The liquid saturated with carbon particles (soot) is continuously sent to a treatment plant near the unit to separate the soot from water using the available technical means that are applicable in the soot capture units. It is worth mentioning that the unit has specific operation hours. It is recommended to provide each site with two units in order to alternate work constantly. When the first unit is off for maintenance and cleaning, the second on is turned on.
The operation method of the unit, when attached to the pollution source as shown in Figure (1), comprises:
- Directing the emission of black carbon pollutants from the source (15) and into the pipe (1) on a regular basis.
- Pumping the polluted air (mechanically) by the pipe propellers (1) and injecting it deep into the operation tank liquid (2) on a regular basis.
- Expelling air out of the end of the pipe (1) deep into the liquid of the operation tank in the form of many, rushing and fast bubbles as shown in Figure (2). - In conjunction with injecting liquid-contaminated air, the pipe propellers (3) are run for drawing air from the pipe (3), and as a result, the pipe sucks air from the space above the liquid in the unit tank (2), so the pressure in the tank vacuum is disturbed.
- Pushing the injected air upwards, so that the liquid retains the carbon particles and the air comes out only when it is free of particles. The injected air is expelled to fill the vacuum and equalize the pressure.
- Continuing the operation of suction propellers in the pipe (3) for drawing clean air from the space and pumping it into the outer space free of particles.
- Operating the sensor once the liquid in the tank (2) is saturated with soot. The stopcock of the feeding pipe (4) is opened and supplies fresh water to the tank in conjunction with the opening of the stopcock of the soot-saturated intake pipe (5); thus, the liquid saturated with soot is withdrawn at the same time as feeding the tank with the fresh liquid; the rate of feeding the tank is equivalent to that of water withdrawal from the tank; thus, the water level within the tank remains unchanged in spite of changing the liquid.
- The process of introducing polluted air, injecting it with liquid, suctioning it free of particles, and pumping it to the outside air continues throughout the unit's operation. - The cooling system cools the tank water so that it does not evaporate.
The components of the cooling system shown in Figure (1) and Figure (2), are as follows: - A radiator (7) of any size needed size that is used to constantly cool the water inside.
- Propellers (8) of any suitable number and used to "pump air" on the radiator (7) throughout the unit's operation in order to cool the water inside.
- A pipe (9) having a sensor-operated stopcock and used to transfer hot water from the network (12) and return it to the radiator (7) to re-cool it at certain intervals.
Water is transferred from the network to the radiator only by gravity.
- A pipe (10) having a sensor-operated stopcock and used to transfer cold water from the radiator to the pipe network at specific intervals (while the pump is being actuated). - A pump (11) having an appropriate capacity used to pump cold water from the radiator through the pipe (10) and return it to the network (12) on a regular basis, and its working time is related to the temperature of the cold water in the radiator and at intervals determined by the sensor.
- A network (12) consisting of a group of high heat conductivity pipes that creates a continuous heat exchange with the tank water, thus reducing its temperature and prevent its evaporation. It receives cold water through the pipe (10); thus, its pipes are cooled and constantly exchanges heat with the tank water. It transfers hot water through the pipe (9) and returns it to the radiator for “re-cooling”. This transfer process of hot water takes place after pumping all the cold water from the radiator to the network (12).
The cooling operation method within the radiator (7) shown in Figure (1) and Figure (2) is as follows:
- once the water in the radiator cools (7), the pump (11) draws cold water from the radiator (7) through the pipe (10) and sends it to the network (12) on a regular basis until all the cold water in the radiator is finished, so the pump stops and the sensor opens stopcock of the pipe (9) and closes that of the pipe (10). Then, water falls only by gravity from the network (12) to the radiator (7) through the pipe (9). When the radiator is filled with water, the sensor closes the pipe (9) stopcock. The propeller (8) continues operation for non-stop cooling of radiant water.
Other methods of application for the injection and operation shown in Figure (3): The injection and operation tank can be used in this unit as an independent unit that can be actuated on a fixed place as shown in Figure (3). Several units may be deployed on the sides of streets or roadsides to capture carbon (emitted by the exhaust of automobile engines) from the open air. The tank and its components can be attached to a truck to act as a mobile unit roaming streets and roads to capture the carbon particles emitted from cars and transportation. The unit is provided with solar cells to generate the power needed to operate the unit's propellers. This unit, as shown in Figure (3), includes:
1- A funnel (1) used to receive air polluted by carbon particles.
2- An injection pipe (2) that extends from the liquid upward and exits the top of the tank at certain height ending with the funnel.
3- An operation and injection tank (3) in which the air polluted with carbon particles is regularly injected so that the process of separating the particles from the air is carried out while injecting air with water.
4- Suction pipes (4) equipped with propellers that are used to suction the air injected into the treatment liquid and pump it into the atmosphere on a regular basis.
5- A pipe (5) used to feed the injection tank with fresh water after withdrawing water saturated with soot.
6- A pipe (6) used to withdraw the liquid saturated with soot from the injection tank whenever the liquid is saturated with soot.
How the tank works:
The funnel (1) receives the polluted air on a regular basis and transfers it to the injection pipe (2) which, in turn, pumps it mechanically or normally deep into the liquid in the injection tank (3) in conjunction with the operation of the propellers of the suction pipe (4) that draw injected air from the tank and expel it to the atmosphere free of the carbon particles. The process of withdrawing the water saturated with soot is carried out through the intake pipe (6), and the process of feeding the tank with fresh water via the pipe (5) is carried out simultaneously with each process of withdrawing the water saturated with carbon particles.
