Table1ExperimentData
Chosegroup1asanexample:
Tosimplifythecalculation,roomtemperatureisassumedas25⁰Candtheroompressureis1atm.
Thehenry’sconstantofcarbondioxidedissolvedinwaterat25⁰C1atmcanbefoundbylookinguptheengineeringhandbookwhichis1635atm
Thus,
m=1635/1=1635(dimensionless).
Fromtheexperimentdata,
L=0.6*998/18=32.267kmol/h
G=PV/RT=1*10.06/(0.082*298)=0.412kmol/h
Y1=5.493%
Y2=5.308%
Accordingtothebalanceequation:
L*(X1-X2)=G*(Y1-Y2);
X2=0
X1=G*(Y1-Y2)/L=0.412*(5.493%-5.308%)/32.267=2.362*10-5
Inaddition,
A=L/mG
Thus,A=32.267/(1635*0.412)=0.048
TakeAintotheequation
=1.239
Because,
Then,

log(HOL)=0.208
log(KXA)=log(L/HOL)=-0.150
log(G)=log(0.412*1000)=2.615

Duetotheexperienceofformerexperiment,theinfluenceofKxaandHoLforpackingcolumnisthatthelargerKxais,themoreefficiencycolumnwillhas.Onthecontrary,largeHoLvaluemeanslowabsorptionefficiency.Moreover,dependingonthethreelog-logdiagrams,log(G)-log(HoL),log(G)-log(Kxa)andlog(Kxa)-log(HoL)diagramasfigure2,3and4,itiseasilytofindtheyarealllinearrelationship,firstoneamongthesethreeistheonlyonewithpositivetrend.ItillustratesthatonlyGandHoLhavepositivedirection,whenGincrease,HoLwillalsoincrease.Inotherwords,theincreasinggasflowratewillhavenegativeeffectontheefficiencyofgasabsorption.Theothertwogroupsareonopposite.KxawillreducedependingonG’sincrease.SodoKxa(X-axis)andHoL(Y-axis).Inaddition,comparedtofigure2andfigure3,becausetheyhavethesameX-axiselement,itcanbefoundoutthatwhenlog(G)increases,log(Kxa)fallsdownandlog(HoL)ri
