Clark, William M.; Jackson, Yaminah Z.; Morin, Michael T.; Ferraro, Giacomo P. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2011
Laboratory experiments and computer models for studying the mass transfer process of removing CO2 from air using water or dilute NaOH solution as absorbent are presented. Models tie experiment to theory and give a visual representation of concentration profiles and also illustrate the two-film theory and the relative importance of various…
