GAS ABSORPTION: TUTORIAL 1 A packed tower is to be designed for a counter current contact of an NH3- air mixture with water

to wash out NH3 from the gas. The conditions are: Gas in: Gas out: All NH3 is removed. Flow rate = 1.5 m3/s Temperature = 27 C Pressure = 1 bar (0.987 atm) Contains 8 mol % NH3

Liquid in: Flow rate = 4.8 kg/s Density = 996 kg/m3 Viscosity = 2.5 x 10-3 kg/m.s Packing used is 38mm Raschig ring (Cf = 95, gc = 1) (a) Calculate the flow rate of liquid out. (b) If the pressure drop of the packed tower is 400 N/m2, by using the diagram, calculate the required diameter for the tower.
