NAPCEN CO2 scrubber is a device used to capture and remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from gas streams, typically in industrial or environmental applications. These scrubbers are essential for controlling CO2 emissions in industries such as power generation, chemical manufacturing, and oil and gas processing. The system works by passing exhaust gases through a scrubbing medium, usually an absorbent material like amine solutions or activated carbon, which chemically reacts with the CO2 and removes it from the gas stream. CO2 scrubbers help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, mitigate climate change, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations, contributing to cleaner air and sustainable operations.
