PENURUNAN KADAR CO2 PADA BIOGAS DENGAN ABSORBSI NaOH TERHADAP KECEPATAN RAMBAT API
Abstract: Biogas is produced
from the fermentation process and generate gases: CH4, CO2, H2, N2, O2, and
H2S. The biogas content on there are still many impurities (inhibitors) in
affecting the quality of the biogas biogas, one of which is CO2. Carbon dioxide
is a molecule that can inhibit and decrease the rate of the combustion
reaction, because the carbon dioxide would disrupt the chain of chemical
reactions of combustion, so the chemical reaction of combustion is inhibited.
This study was to determine the effect of variations in the concentration and
duration of contact NaOH to the reduction of CO2 levels shown in the figure the
distance between the flame propagation speed of propagation of fire and flame.
Observations carried out experiments with burning stoichiometric mixture
(methane and air) that has been purified in the combustion chamber Helle-Shaw
Cell 1cm x 20cm x 60cm. The results showed that the concentration and contact
time can reduce the levels of CO2 in the biogas yield faster flame propagation
speed.
