Recent studies emphasize the need for advanced and feasible technologies to meet the global agenda of achieving net-zero or negative carbon emissions. The authors evaluated the performance of a large-scale biomass gasification system utilizing palm kernel shell and integrated with carbon capture (BECCS) as a potentially viable carbon dioxide removal solution. The entire system was developed and simulated using ASPEN Plus. Key operational parameters of the BECCS system were investigated, including the equivalence ratio (ER), gasification temperature, monoethanolamine (MEA) concentration, and the liquid-to-gas (L/G) ratio.
