Need help with a design on the carbon separator. The separator that is detailed here works for lithium-ion but I have no knowledge on the best way to separate carbon from gallium. Physical tech specs and process needs to be appropriately defined.

How does it work?

Gallium when heated to a temperature of just 85 degrees becomes liquid and with a mild current applied to it has carbon removing property. Without our unique design we form artificial lungs through a proprietary honey comb design and forced air that is heated through coils. The gallium is then recycled as it makes its way through the structures acting as a conductor while absorbing the carbon from the forced air which comes in through rows of high RPM fans. The gallium contains the carbon moving with the force of simple gravity to a carbon separator where it is extracted through plasma and excreted as a solid pellet form where it can be repurposed at a later time. The Gallium is the recycled in a closed loop system and after the carbon is extracted it repeats this process continually. Gallium is eco friendly unlike its other metal cousins. It’s job is to gather and extract carbon in a continuous loop much like a blood stream. Because of the low temp melting point of this metal this solution has a very low energy cost. The unit can operate by the power of the sun by day and supplemented by the sun at night through a lithium ion battery. One thing is certain only a fraction of the energy that is generated by negative carbon print is needed to clean our air and our environment taking it back to a positive.


Need to solve only third problem.

One needs to determine if a step-down transformer is the right way to apply current to the stainless steel mesh and the dripping gallium. Needs to be light current. Physical tech specs and process needs to be appropriately defined.

Two need to determine what kind of pump would best be used to pump liquid gallium back to top and then dispense via the drip nozzle. Physical tech specs needed. Model and make it something is out there which currently can do this.

Three. Need help with a design on the carbon separator. The separator that is detailed here works for lithium-ion but I have no knowledge on the best way to separate carbon from gallium. Physical tech specs and process needs to be appropriately defined.
