PENENTUAN KONDISI OPTIMUM ABSORPSI CO2 HASIL PEMBAKARAN BATUBARA OLEH LARUTAN NATRIUM HIDROKSIDA (NaOH)
Abstract: Along with
increasing CO2 gas emission in the air that caused by burning fossil fuels for
power plan or transportation, so
this emission should
be controlled. Controlling
the emission can be
done by ‘catching’ CO2 gas emission produced by fossil fuels.One of the fossil
fuels is coal. The aim of this research is to know the optimum condition of
absorbing CO2 as the result of burning coal by
using NaOH with
influenced by coal
mass, air flow
velocity, and concentration
of absorber fluid. For
45 mg coal
sample, resulted the
highest absorption ability
which is 22.29%. Best
flows velocity is
300 mL/min with
absorption 27.60%. Air
flows velocity depends
on absorbing CO2. In
variation of fluid
absorber concentration (NaOH),
optimum condition of absorbing CO2 is 0.325 N with absorption
35,56%.
