Abstract

Biogas is a renewable energy source with great potential to replace fossil fuels; however, the presence of CO₂ and H₂S reduces its quality and combustion efficiency, making purification necessary. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of CO₂ absorption using Bittern and alkaline solutions (3N KOH, 3N NaOH) with absorbent volumes ranging from 600 to 1000 ml. The absorption process was carried out in a bubble column, and the gas composition was analyzed using an Orsat apparatus and titration method. The results indicated that increasing absorbent volume reduced CO₂ concentration to 10–15% and H₂S to below 1.2%, while increasing CH₄ content to more than 80%, in accordance with SNI 8019:2014 biogas standards. Stepwise absorption (Bittern–KOH/NaOH) was more effective than single absorbents, yielding up to 87% CH₄ and reducing CO₂ to 10%. XRF analysis of the precipitate showed calcium (84.58%) and magnesium (14%) dominance, confirming carbonate and sulfate precipitation. These findings demonstrate that Bittern and alkaline solutions are effective absorbents for biogas purification, with stepwise absorption providing the most optimal improvement in biogas quality.
