Question: 2 . - A packed absorber up to a height of 2 . 4 m , it is used to reduce the concentration of AIn

2.- A packed absorber up to a height of2.4 m, it is used to reduce the concentration of AIn a gaseous stream of 6.5 to 1%. An aqueous current, which initially contains 1% of A, is fed by the top of the tower. The tower is fed 20000 ft'/h of the gas mixture at 60\deg F and 1 atmosphere.Calculate: The amount of liquid current required per hour, if the tower works in parallel flow with a minimum Ls/Gs =1.5(Ls/Gs) ratioHow much would the flow of the solvent be modified, if in reality the tower operated with countercurrent flows?Which of the 2 fixes is more efficient, for the economy of the process?Calculate the global Kya mass transfer coefficient for the countercurrent operation.The balance data for this system are, on a solute-free basis:
\table[[xA,0.00,0.01,0.02,0.03],[YA,0.00,0.0002,0.0005,0.010]]
