Question: data. Carbon tetrachloride ( C C l 4 ) will be stripped from water using pure air at 2 5 C and 7 4 5

data.
Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) will be stripped from water using pure air at 25C and 745mmHg
pressure in a countercurrent packed stripping column. The inlet water is saturated with carbon
tetrachloride and the exit water should contain 1ppm(mol). See Table 12-2 of Wankat for
equilibrium and solubility data. The liquid flowrate is 500kmolh, and the tower will operate at
at (LG)=0.8(LG)max. The tower diameter is 1m.HOL is estimated to be 0.59m.
a. What is the height of packing required?
b. What is the overall liquid phase mass transfer coefficient, Kxa?
