CES - Wetted Wall Gas Absorption Column

Wetted wall columns may be used to determine gas/liquid mass transfer coefficients, essential when calculating the design of absorption towers. Such coefficients form the basis of correlations used to develop packed towers.
CES examines the absorption of oxygen from air into deoxygenated water (prepared by nitrogen sparging). This is an example of liquid film controlled absorption.
The liquid film mass transfer coefficient can be determined at various mass flow rates of water.
