Objective:
1-Study the basic principles of the absorption of a gas into liquid
using packed-column.
2-Study the absorption of carbon dioxide into water.
3-Study the effect of water flow rate on absorption of carbon
dioxide into water.

Introduction:
Gas absorption is a widely used unit operation in chemical
engineering. The gas absorption unit is pilot plant scale unit
designed to demonstrate the principles of gas absorption and
for students to investigate the principles of packed tower
absorption processes and hydrodynamics as well as provide
practical training in the operation of gas absorption plant. This
absorption column is designed to absorb carbon dioxide, CO2
From an air/ CO2 mixture into water flowing down the column.

Equipment:

Calculation:
Air = 40 % (0 600)
Gas=20 % (0- 600 )
H2o= 40 % (0-270)
100/270 = 40 / x
X= 108
Co2= Dh
Dh = h2 h1
H=10-ph
Ph1= 7.01
Ph2= 5.1
Time = 10 min

Discussion :
It can be concluded from the experiment that the
rate of absorption differs from system to another
system. During the first experiment, it is easier to
describe the flow since the values are ascending until
it reaches a constant stage. This displays the nature
of the chemical (carbon dioxide) and the device that
it will reach a saturated point. As for the second
experiment, it differs slightly for carbon dioxide
absorbed. As a conclusion, both methods can be use
it
