Biogas upgrading by chemical absorption using a packed column apparatus

Nowadays, the continuously increasing diminution of conventional fossil fuels has increased the interest of the research and development sectors in finding green and renewable supplements. A momentous attention has been given to the production of biogas via the anaerobic digestion of biomass. Biog...
