(c) A tray tower is to be designed to absorb CO2 from a flue gas stream by scrubbing into an
aqueous amine solution at 25C. Approximately, 180m3h(at 25C and 1atm ) of gas is to be
processed and the CO2 content of the gas is to be reduced from 15mol% to 2mol%. The
scrubbing liquid, which is recycled from a stripper, will contain 0.058molCO2mol solution.
Determine (i) the minimum liquid rate, kmolh and (ii) the number of real trays required for a
liquid rate 1.2 times the minimum. Assume an overall tray efficiency of 53%.
