Absorption Process A mixture of VOC (acetone) and air is fed into a column of absorption with an internal diameter of 1.11m. Water flow rate and air flow rate entering the column are 37.43kmol/h.m2 and 2.66 kmol/h.m2, respectively. 0.1964mol fraction of acetone presents in air stream. The absorber operates at 16.8C and 1.007105Pa. Acetone is highly soluble in water, 98.2% of acetone successfully been removed. The solubility of a gas in a liquid can be expressed by Henry's law, in which the molar fraction of the gas in the liquid (x) is proportional to its partial pressure (P) by means of the Henry coefficients, dependent on temperature. Determine all the streams' flow rate and its composition of the designed absorber. All the information is required to be labelled in a sketch diagram
