One could simply spray the smoke as it leaves the smoke stack with soapy water and capture the carbon in water then it would dry up.
I just used a spray bottle to neutralize the smoke from burning paper. It appears to work, the smell of soap overpowered that of fire.
It doesn't look like I find anywhere this specific idea of spraying smoke with soapy water. I think I'm going to have to experiment.
I'm thinking I'll burn some paper in a closed box with a CO2 detector inside, and see if soapy water sprayed in the box lowers the CO2 parts per cm.
If I learned anything from fight club it is that soap ingredients are combustible. from what I can foresee soap, carbon and alcohol should make for a a pretty slow burning object if that…
Here she is. My carbon filter. The smoke stack at A has a hood over it at C. The smoke goes through the carbon capturing container at B where it is sprayed with soapy water from D. The soapy water collects at the bottom of B and is re used until it is all used. The 'clean' smoke is then alowwed to leave through E. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
