Stripping columns are used to remove unwanted materials from process streams. The air stripping column shown below is used to remove ammonia from water and wastewater feedstreams. This section describes various types of air stripping columns as well as steam strippers.

The stripping column operates at 20C and 1atm. The desired concentration of ammonia in liquid steam leaving stripping column would be 1 mol%. a) Determine the minimum air flowrate for this tray stripping column b) Determine the optimum air flow rate for this tray stripping column c) Determine the actual number of stages for this stripping column if the tray efficiency is 25% (Use graphical approach) d) Determine the ideal number of stages by Kremser equation and compare with the graphical approach. Be careful this is a stripping column. I have given you information below about stripping column.
