A packed bed column removes CO2 from air by absorbing it into water (equilibrium diagram above). At a specific location in the column, the bulk mole fractions of CH4 in the air and the water phases are 16 mol% and 2 mol%, respectively. The ky at this specific location is 0.04 kg mol/sm2, and kx is 0.12 kg mol/sm2. Calculate the y* and x* at this point. Calculate the Ky and Kx and obtain the fluxes in the vapor and liquid phase using the overall mass transfer coefficients.
