About this document
Solvent Recovery in Packed Bed Absorber by Jose Eduardo Morales is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) A packed bed absorption column treats a waste gas stream containing a toxic solvent from a pharmaceutical process. The solvent is absorbed into water and then further purified using activated carbon. 2) The student must optimize the liquid water feed rate (L) to minimize the equivalent annual operating cost (EAOC) of removing 10 kmol/h of acetone from 1000 kmol/h of air. 3) The student will present results as two plots: one showing how each EAOC term varies with L, and another plotting EAOC versus L
