Summary:A system and a process for capturing Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from flue gases are disclosed. The process comprises feeding a flue gas comprising CO2 to at least one Rotary Packed Bed (RPB) absorber rotating circularly. A solvent may be provided through an inner radius of the RPB absorber. The solvent may move towards an outer radius of the RPB absorber. The solvent may react with the flue gas in a counter-current flow. The process further includes passing the flue gas through at least one of a water wash and an acid wash to remove traces of the solvent present in the flue gas. Finally, the solvent reacted with the CO2 may be thermally regenerated for re-utilizing the solvent back in the process.
