Abstract

This research focuses on revolutionizing industrial cleaning techniques by Harnessing the power of algae and sponge Iron to combat Co2 in biogas production. The objectives are to align this innovative approach with the United Nations sustainable development Goals (SDGs) while addressing the challenges posed by high concentration of methane ideal tool for reducing CO2 levels. This approach not only mitigate CO2 Concentration but also promotessustainable practices by leveraging the natural capabilities of these microorganisms. In the second step, sponge Iron, a highly porous and iron -rich material, is utilized for further CO2 reduction, as well as the removal of CH4 and trace amount of H2S. Sponge Iron acts as a catalyst to facilitate the conversion of CO2 Into more stable compounds, resulting in a substantial reduction in CO2 concentration within the biogas. The removal of CH4 And H2S enhances the quality of the biogas, making it more suitable for various energy applications. The Research outcomes demonstrate significant improvements in biogas quality, with CO2 concentration reduced from 27ppm to 12ppm, 9.93ppm,and 8ppm, respectively. The overall CO2 removal efficiency achieved through this Revolutionizing cleaning process is approximately 30%,contributing to a significant reduction in carbon emissions. By aligning these innovative techniques with the United Nations SDGs, we address multiple goals, including Goal 7(Affordable and clean Energy)by promoting the efficient utilization of renewable energy, Goal 9(industry, innovation, and infrastructure) by introducing Novel cleaning technologies,and Goal 13(Climate action) by actively combating CO2 Emissions.This Research marks a pivotal step towards revolutionizing industrial cleaning techniques and promotes sustainable biogas production. It not only supports the transition to a low -carbon economy but also encourages the adoption of environmentally friendly practice in the industrial sector. Keywords: Biogas, CO2, H2S, Sponge Iron, Hydrogen, Scrubber and Chemical.
