Claim 12:
13. An air conditioner, comprising:
a carbon dioxide remover configured to operate in a carbon dioxide removal mode in which carbon dioxide is filtered from indoor air to supply clean air into a room and a carbon dioxide discharge mode in which the filtered carbon dioxide is discharged to an outside of the carbon dioxide remover;
an oxygen generator configured to operate in an oxygen separation mode in which outdoor air introduced from an outside of the air conditioner is pressurized and separated into oxygen and residues to supply into the room and an oxygen discharge mode in which the separated residues are discharged to an outside;
an air discharge pipe configured to provide into the room the clean air from which the carbon dioxide has been removed from the indoor air;
a first exhaust pipe configured to discharge the filtered carbon dioxide;
a second exhaust pipe configured to discharge the residues by the oxygen generator;
a third exhaust pipe configured to join the first exhaust pipe and the second exhaust pipe; and
a processor configured to simultaneously perform the carbon dioxide discharge mode and the oxygen discharge mode so that the filtered carbon dioxide and the separated residues are discharged together.
