A significant factor influencing climate change is the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as a consequence of human activities such as the combustion of fossil fuels. Climate change can be slowed down by taking action to mitigate industrial-scale CO2 emissions. Currently, the most advanced technology for capturing CO2 from industrial flue gases is the post-combustion CO2 capture based on amine absorption. However, due to the high energy penalties of existing CO2 capture technologies and insufficient carbon markets, it is necessary to develop methods that compete with these technologies or minimize their energy use. In this work, the absorption process is analyzed for the capture of CO2 in post-combustion flue gases using modelling and simulation methodology. Based on the outcomes of the simulation, the CO2 capture process demonstrates a noteworthy CO2 capture efficiency of 90%, yielding a high-purity CO2 output exceeding 98%.
