Question: Absorption is a chemical process by which a gas mixture ( often a gas containing a contaminant, such as acid vapour ) contacts a liquid
Absorption is a chemical process by which a gas mixture often a gas containing a contaminant, such as acid vapour contacts a liquid solvent inside a column, and a portion of the gas contaminant is absorbed into the liquid.
In the absorption process below, a column is used to "sweeten" air by removing a toxic contaminant, from the incoming air stream by dissolving it into pure water solvent. The product, called exit gas, must contain no more than
Air feed:
total flowrate
and atm
Water feed:
total flowrate
and atm
Pure contains no dissolved
The Question:
Create a complete stream table for this process based on the diagram below. List any assumptions you make to complete it below the stream table.
