(Solution) - It is required to absorb 96 of the benzene from -(2025 Original AI-Free Solution)

Paper Details

It is required to absorb 96% of the benzene from a gas stream with absorption oil in a sieve-tray column at a nominal pressure of 1 atm. The feed conditions are as follows:



Tray geometry is as follows:



Determine column diameter for 80% of flooding, the number of actual trays required, and the Murphree vapor-tray efficiency profile for benzene for the possible combinations of vapor and liquid flow patterns on a tray. Could the equilibrium-based method be used to obtain a reliable solution to thisproblem?
