Abstract: This research explores the feasibility of using a biomass-based adsorbent to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from a compression ignition (CI) engine. A numerical study of counter-pressure is performed in a capture unit using permeability factors of an adsorbent. The adsorbent is kept in two positions to examine its gas adsorption performance. Numerical results ensure acceptable back pressure and superior capture efficiency. The capture unit is designed under the permissible counter-pressure limit and coupled to the exhaust of a CI engine. The adsorbent exhibited simultaneous CO, CO2, HC, and NO reduction by 6.5%, 18%, 9.8%, and 12%, respectively.
