Development of Water Scrubber for Removal of CO2 from biogas
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Biogas technology provides not only clean fuel to burn but it also gives highly nutrias slurry for farming. Biogas is a renewable source of energy can be used as a substitute for fossil fuels. Biogas can be produced from food waste/refuse or peelings, agricultural and animal waste. In India the fossil resources are limited, and they impose a high burden on the environment therefore looking at the ecological and economical perspectives, biogas is an important source of energy. Due to its limited use biogas until now is not produced at a considerable amount. The main problems associated with the commercialization with biogas are its low energy content per unit volume, it is difficult to liquefy and it is not produced in large amount at a same place. For the use as a commercialization of the biogas, it is required to increase the energy content per unit volume of biogas. It is important to make it portable and compatible for various commercial purposes. For that, the energy content for a particular volume must also be increased. Energy content of the biogas can be increased by purifying the gas, i.e. to remove incombustible gas present in biogas. Water scrubbing is used for CO2 removal. It is the cheapest technology for purification. The raw biogas is introduced from the bottom of the column and flows upward, while fresh water is introduced from top of the column, flowing downward over a packed bed. The CO2saturated water is continuously withdrawn from the bottom of the column and cleaned gas exits from the top.
