You can do this using javascript, all you have to do is to delete a cookie named " PHPSESSID " which allows the server to know what is the session id of the client, 

function removeCookie(cookieName)
{
    cookieValue = "";
    cookieLifetime = -1;
    var date = new Date();
    date.setTime(date.getTime()+(cookieLifetime*24*60*60*1000));
    var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString();
    document.cookie = cookieName+"="+JSON.stringify(cookieValue)+expires+"; path=/";
}

This is the function that deletes the cookie, all you have to do is to call the function when the user closes the browser

window.onbeforeunload = closingCode;
function closingCode()
{
  removeCookie("PHPSESSID");
}
