Abstract
CO2 is the main greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. It is emitted from a range of sectors like power generation, transport and industries. Due to this problem, a major effort han been done in the develop of strategy for its control and CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) had been recognized as an effective option.Absorption, adsorption, membranes, crygenic distillation and calcium looping are the main post-combustion technologies for CO2 capture. The cement manufacturing is one of the major industrial emission sources of CO2 and still needs technical developments for implementing CCs. Therefore, this project studied the capture of CO2 from the flue gas coming from Ciments Molins, an industry with a capacity of 825,000 t/year of cement. The absorption technology was selected to be simulated and designed with Aspen HYSYS
