It is desired to remove about 9 0 % of the A present in a gas stream by absorption in water which contains reactant B

It is desired to remove about 90% of the A present in a gas stream by absorption in water which contains reactant B. Chemicals A and B react in the liquid as A(gl)+B(l)R(l) with -rA=kCACB.B has a negligible vapor pressure, hence does not go into the gas phase. We plan to do this absorption in a packed bed column(a) What volume of contactor is needed? (b) Where does the resistance of absorption reaction lie? Additional Data: CU=56,000mol water ?m3 liquid at all CB,D=3.610-6m2?hr,Fg=90,000molhr,=105Pa,pAin=1,000Pa,pAout=100Pa, For Packed bed -kAga=0.36molhr*m3.Pa,kAla=72hr-1,a=100m2m3,Fl=900,000molhr,fl=0.08,CBin=56molm3,
For Agitated Tank -kAga=0.72molhr*m3.Pa,kAla=144hr-1,a=200m2m3,Fl=9,000molhr,fl=0.9,CBin=5556molm3
