Carbon capture cartridge

Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture cartridge includes perforated housing/casing filled with a CO2 scrubbing medium preferably in the form of a liquid, gel or a loose solid. Preferably the scrubbing medium is either calcium oxide (quicklime), lithium hydroxide, soda lime, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, activated carbon or a mixture. Advantageously the CO2 capture cartridge is located in between a combustion chamber and an exit point to the atmosphere, such as in a flue and reduces CO2 emissions produced by the combustion process. Preferably the CO2 capture cartridge is used in conjunction with a gas, oil or wood burning boiler, water heater or air heater.
