1 to 3, a tobacco smoke purifying apparatus according to the present invention includes a case 100, an electrostatic precipitator 200, a first ore filter 300, a second ore filter 400, a third ore filter 500, and an air blower 600.

The case 100 is formed with an air inlet 110 on the front side and an air outlet 120 on the rear side of the air inlet 110. That is, the case 100 is installed in the cigarette booth to suck air containing cigarette smoke in the cigarette booth, and exhaust the purified air to the outside by means of devices installed therein.

The electrostatic precipitator 200 includes an ionization unit 210 installed inside the case 100 and installed on the rear side of the intake port 110 to ionize dust in the air, And a dust collecting part 220 for collecting dust.

The electrostatic precipitator 200 is disposed inside the case 100 through which air flows and collects contaminants such as fine dust contained in the air. More specifically, the electrostatic precipitator 200 includes air sucked through the suction port 110 And a discharge electrode 212 formed between the ground electrode 211 and the earth electrode so that the fine dust in the ion electrode 211 can be charged. And a dust collecting unit 220 in which a plurality of dust collecting cell plates 221 are alternately stacked. The cell plate 221 constituting the dust collecting unit 220 is preferably installed inside a case 222 of a rectangular box shape. That is, the ionizer 210 is disposed in front of the plate 221 through which the air flows. The ionizer 220 charges the fine dust contained in the air with positive ions. The dust collector 220 is disposed in the air flow direction 210 to adsorb fine dust that has been charged by the ionization unit 210.

The first ore filter (300) is disposed behind the electric dust collector (20) to disassemble and / or smell the cigarette smell. Specifically, the first ore filter 300 includes a first filter frame 310 installed inside the case 100, a first mesh network 320 closing the front and rear of the first filter frame 310, And a first filter ball 330 filled in a space between the first mesh networks.

Here, the first filter ball 330 can be removed by adsorbing nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxide components, and fine dust components of a mist level contained in the air to be absorbed by using a carrier, which is a porous material, (Surface area in contact with the intake air) for air purification is installed in a general air purifier in a state in which a smooth exhaust flow of air is induced by using the gap G provided between the first filter balls 330 Which is 50% or more as compared with the conventional fabric filter. Therefore, it is possible to maintain excellent processing performance even if the size and the capacity of the product are reduced.

The first filter ball 330 may be a conventional activated carbon or the like, but it is preferable to use a mordenite material, which is a type of natural zeolite, in consideration of humidity and molding conditions in the form of balls. desirable. That is, since the natural mineral mordenite has a cation exchange capacity (ideal value: 210 meq / 100 g) required for air purification of about 160 meq / 100 g, the cation exchange capacity of the activated carbon is about 110 meq / , It maintains the molecular scale porosity exceeding the activated carbon while having large pores corresponding to about 30 times of the activated carbon, so that the adsorption performance of various pollution components is remarkably excellent. Also, since the Mohs hardness is 7 and the Shore hardness is 110, It is also excellent material.

Furthermore, the first filter ball 330 is manufactured using the same mordenite as described above.

The reason why the diameter of the first filter ball 15 is set within the range of 2 mm to 10 mm is as follows. When the first filter ball 330 having a diameter of less than 2 mm is used, the total specific surface area required for air purification is increased However, each of the first filter balls 330 may adhere too tightly to cause a problem of smooth exhaust flow of the exhaust gas, and when the diameter of the first filter ball 330 exceeds 10 mm, This is because it has a disadvantage in that the total specific surface area required for air purification is reduced.

Further, the first filter ball 330 may include a NOx removing filter ball 331 coated with or mixed with a reaction catalyst of nitrogen oxides using natural mordenite as a basic carrier, and a SOx removing filter ball And 332, respectively. That is, the NOx removing filter ball 331 selectively removes nitrogen oxides in the air, and the SOx removing filter ball 332 selectively removes sulfur oxides in the air to selectively remove various polluting components Thereby enabling efficient processing. Here, the reaction catalyst of the nitrogen oxide and the sulfur oxide adsorbent applied to the NOx removing filter ball 331 and the SOx removing filter ball 332 are the same as those of the known V2O5-TiO2 catalyst and the absorbent of calcium hydroxide or sodium (Na) And the method of applying the reaction catalyst and the absorbent to the modene carrier may be variously applied such as a powder mixing method or a deposition or nano coating method. In addition, the coating method is preferably applied to a metal catalyst, and the nano coating method in which the modene carrier can maintain molecular scale porosity is the most preferable. In the powder mixing method, the method is applied to a non-metal catalyst or an absorbent And it is preferable to add the reaction catalyst or the absorbent component in an amount of about 10 wt% to 20 wt% of the mordenite powder while simultaneously considering the production cost and reactivity of the filter balls.

At this time, the natural mordenite powder is preferably as fine as possible in terms of surface area increase. For example, 325 mesh or more, and more preferably 1 mm or less in particle diameter. As the natural mordenite is finely pulverized, the surface area is increased and the reaction rate is fast and the impregnation efficiency is improved. Next, at least one of the sodium compound and the potassium compound is dissolved in distilled water. Sodium carbonate may be used as the sodium compound, and potassium carbonate may be used as the potassium compound, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Next, the natural mordenite powder and the solution of the second step are put into a reaction tank and reacted. Through this reaction, at least one of the sodium compound and the potassium compound is impregnated into the pores of the natural mordenite using the natural mordenite as a carrier. The natural mordenite impregnated with at least one of the sodium compound and the potassium compound is solidified in a ball form.
