OK, I stand corrected. They do make commercial CO2 sensors. That's the first one I have seen.
But the question still remains: why are you concerned about CO2 levels? As long as sufficient oxygen is available, CO2 is not harmful in the least at
levels up to 5000 ppm. The atmosphere is less than 400 ppm. That is a LOT of CO2 before it even begins to affect those most sensitive to it, and even
5000 ppm is only slightly irritating and far from dangerous.
Chlorine gas, on the other hand, is a dangerous chemical. In order to remove it as you are talking about, it would have to be bubbled through water in
as small bubbles as is practical, probably several times, in order to convert the gaseous chlorine to HCl. That water would then have to be introduced
to the NaOH solution to allow the NaCl to precipitate and returned to accept more chlorine. In the process, any remaining NaOH would need to be
removed.
In short, you are talking about a very complex system with several tanks, filters, and pumps (all of which would have to be chemically-resistant), and
a large supply of sodium hydroxide... which ca itself be hazardous if not handled properly.
You'd be better off driving somewhere else.
