Resumo: For biogas to be used as fuel, treatments are required to remove contaminants, such as carbon dioxide (CO2). Worldwide used, water scrubbing systems are extremely efficient in the removal of CO2 and use the principle of solubility of this gas in water. The process takes place in absorption columns, where two of the variables that supposedly influence the final concentration of co2 are studied, which are: water temperature and ratio between water flow and biogas flow (l/g). Through simulations in the Hysys® software and analysis of the results generated by the DCCR methodology, it was possible to verify and quantify the influence of the variables on the response (CO2 removal). For example, as the L/G ratio is increased, the influence of temperature on the CO2 removal process is less significant. In addition, within the range of the studied variables, the CO2 removal efficiency was between 94.73% and 99.80%, demonstrating efficiency and robustness in the process.
