Please use the Ideal Asorbed Solution Thoery method, thanks! 4) The Langmuir

4) The Langmuir constants for the adsorption of water and nitrogen in a zeolite with pore volume 0.36cm3/g and mass density 0.42g/cm3 are B=6.4mmol/g and =4.8bar1 for water and B=3.6mmol/g and =0.25bar1 for nitrogen. The void fraction in the packed bed is 0.5 . The breakthrough plot for a 1% (by weight) mixture of water vapour and nitrogen at 310K and 1 bar in a benchtop adsorption column containing this zeolite is shown below. Using IAST, suggest a suitable length for an industrial unit able to dehumidify this nitrogen stream at 310K and 1 bar such that it needs to be regenerated only once every 2 hours if the maximum allowed weight fraction of water in the exit gas is 5104. bench-scale experiment volumetric flow rate of feed Qt=60.0cm3/s cross sectional area of adsorption chamber a=2cm2 length of adsorption chamber L=50cm pilot-scale experiment volumetric flow rate of feed Qt=0.01m3/s cross sectional area of adsorption chamber a=0.1m2
