POME undergoes anaerobic digestion to produce biogas and when it is purified the biomass can be used as a fuel. This work aims to create a model to simulate the production of biogas and identify the key parameters of the water scrubber using Aspen Plus. The production of biogas was successfully simulated with a relative difference of less than 5. The key parameters of scrubber in order of percentage contribution to the purity of biogas is as follows the temperature of water (38.34) column pressure (35.29) water flow rate (23.75) and lastly number of stages (2.62). By employing the optimum values biogas with 99.3 methane purity was obtained

Abstract

POME undergoes anaerobic digestion to produce biogas and when it is purified the biomass can be used as a fuel. This work aims to create a model to simulate the production of biogas and identify the key parameters of the water scrubber using Aspen Plus. The production of biogas was successfully simulated with a relative difference of less than 5. The key parameters of scrubber in order of percentage contribution to the purity of biogas is as follows the temperature of water (38.34) column pressure (35.29) water flow rate (23.75) and lastly number of stages (2.62). By employing the optimum values biogas with 99.3 methane purity was obtained
