In the conventional analysis for a packed tower air-stripper, we assumed 100% removal efficiency.

Suppose a packed tower air-stripper for treating water containing TCE (Hc = 0.375) is improperly designed and operated, and is obtaining only 75% removal efficiency.

Derive the mass-balance for this process and compute the air-water ratio (AWR).
