  1. If It is desired to strip 30 mol % of B from water into air. Outlet flowrate of air stream is 90kgmol/hr. Inlet composition of B in air is 0.01mole% . Initially water with 18 mole % enters the multistage stripping process with a flow rate of 30kgmol/hr. BECAREFUL IT IS A STRIPPING PROCESS NOT AN ABSORPTION PROCESS!
