ABSORPTION ASSEMBLY COMPRISING A CO2 ABSORBER AND A WATER TRAP AND METHOD FOR FILTERING OUT CO2

An absorption arrangement (100) includes a CO2 absorber (4) and a water trap (2). Such an absorption arrangement (100) is used with a process for filtering carbon dioxide from a gas mixture by absorption. The gas mixture flows from a source through the absorption arrangement (100) to a sink in the following way: through a supply fluid guide unit (3), through a lower deflecting fluid guide unit (9), through the CO2 absorber (4), through an upper deflecting fluid guide unit (6), through a connecting fluid guide unit (33), through the water trap (2) and through a discharge fluid guide unit (34). The gas mixture flows vertically or obliquely upward through the CO2 absorber (4) and vertically or obliquely downward through the connecting fluid guide unit (33) to the water trap (2).
