Question: 8 . 1 3 A tower, 0 . 6 m diameter, packed with 5 0 - m m ceramic Raschig rings to a depth of

8.13 A tower, 0.6m diameter, packed with 50-mm ceramic Raschig rings to a depth of 1.2m, is to
be used for producing a solution of oxygen in water for certain pollution-control operations. The
packed space will be pressurized at 5 std atm abs with pure oxygen gas from a gas cylinder. There is
to be no gas outlet, and gas will enter from the cylinder only to maintain pressure as oxygen is
dissolved. Water will flow down the packing continuously at 1.50kgs. The temperature is to be
25C. Assuming that the entering water is oxygen-free, what concentration of oxygen can be
expected in the water effluent?
