1. A thermal oxidization system, comprising:
a thermal oxidizer including an oxidation mixer, an oxidation chamber, a retention chamber and a heat dissipater forming a fluid flow path for a thermal oxidation of a waste gas,
wherein the oxidation mixer is structurally configured to facilitate a combustible mixture of a waste gas stream and an oxidant within the oxidation mixer into a combustible waste gas stream flowing within the oxidation mixer,
wherein the oxidation chamber is in fluid communication with the oxidation mixer to receive a flow of the combustible waste gas stream,
wherein the oxidation chamber includes a primary heating element or a gas burner to facilitate a primary combustion reaction of the combustible waste gas stream into an oxygenated waste gas stream within the oxidation chamber,
wherein the retention chamber is in fluid communication with the oxidation chamber to receive a flow of the oxygenated waste gas stream,
wherein the retention chamber is structurally configured to facilitate a secondary combustion reaction of the oxygenated waste gas stream into oxidized gases within the retention chamber,
wherein the oxidized gases includes at least one greenhouse gas,
wherein the heat dissipater is in fluid communication with the retention chamber to receive a flow of the oxidized gases,
wherein the heat dissipator is structurally configured to heat dissipate a flow of the oxidized gases within the heat dissipator; and
a greenhouse gas processor in fluid communication with the heat dissipator to receive the oxidized gases flowing within the heat dissipator, wherein the greenhouse gas processor is structurally configured to extract the at least one greenhouse gas from the oxidized gases within the greenhouse gas processor.
