Question: Q 5 . ( 5 pt ) Consider the open trench where wastewater ( 2 0 0 m 3 ) containing toluene in water enters

Q5.(5 pt) Consider the open trench where wastewater (200m3) containing toluene in water enters one end of the trench with 2m depth and 3m width at 293K and 1.0atm. As the wastewater flows down, the aeration gas strips out the dissolved toluene and transfer it to the surrounding atmosphere. The inlet air flow rate is 0.15m3m3(water).min and the flow rate of liquid is 0.1m3s. The mass transfer coefficient (kllcorner)is 2.710-4ms and the interfacial area is 18m2 toluene ?m3 water. The Henry's law constant for toluene in water is 8.5 atm*m3kgmol. Determine the length required to reduce the toluene concentration from 100 to 0.005gm3.
