Abstract

CO2 concentration on a global scale is increasing rapidly day by day, and it highly effects on the environment. CO2 mitigation strategies such as CCUS (Carbon capture utilization and storage) proved to be an efficient technology to combat the global warming issue. The three technologies commercially deployed for Industrial CO2 capture can be classified as 1. post-combustion process, 2. pre-combustion process, also 3. Oxy-fuel process. Post-combustion capture process has some benefits over the other technologies as it is a better retrofit to the already existing combustion process. The main aim of this paper is to describe the post-combustion capture with the absorption process. And also discussed simulation & modelling of the experimental performance on the pilot plant. Based on this application, different solvents and PI techniques of blended amine are also discussed to improve efficiency
