Abstract

Disclosed is a method for recovering carbon dioxide from exhaust gas, more particularly, a method for recovering carbon dioxide from exhaust gas for saving the cost for recovery of carbon dioxide by decreasing energy required for recycling a carbon dioxide absorbent solution. In particular, a circulating solvent, whose heat of vaporization and/or sensible heat is lower than that of a solvent of an absorbent solution introduced to a recycling tower, is supplied to the lower portion of the recycling tower and mixed with the heated absorbent solution. As a result, the pressure inside the recycling tower is maintained so that carbon dioxide released from the absorbent solution is discharged to a storage tank/drum.
