Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 1

Spray tower is a _______ process.

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 1

Explanation: Here, the gas is passed through bottom and the liquid is sprayed at the top.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 2

Find the rate of non-diffusing solute, if the mole fraction of the gas phase is 0.65 and the diffusing rate is 70 moles/hr.

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 2

Explanation: Gs= G(1-y)
=70 x(1-0.65)
=24.5 moles/hr

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 3

In an absorber, lower denser materials are sent through the bottom and the higher denser materials are sent through top

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 3

Explanation: For reducing the pumping cost and to create sufficient pressure drop.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 4

Stripper= (1/X)
Find X?

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 4

Explanation: Stripper is liquid to gas transfer but absorber is gas to liquid transfer.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 5

Find the representation

Where, Y- gas phase concentration in mole ratio
X-liquid phase concentration in mole ratio 

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 5

Explanation: For stripper, the solute gets transfer from liquid to gas so the operating line is below equilibrium line.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 6

Find the slope of the operating line

Here, the concentrations are represented in mole ratio. The value of (Y1-Y2)/(X1-X2) =2. Find the slope of the operating line.

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 6

Explanation: For a counter current process, Y1- Y2 = Ls/Gs(X1-X2)
Ls/Gs= slope of the operating line = 2

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 7

 Have a look on the below diagram

Here, DE and DP are the operating line. Also Y and X are the concentrations in mole ratio for gas and liquid phase.
It’s clearly a representation of an absorber. For the operating line DE minimum liquid is required 

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 7

Explanation: DP line requires minimum liquid because the composition is increased to X2.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 8

 If the operating line touches the equilibrium line, the separation is possible in an absorber.

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 8

Explanation: At that point, the slope of operating line will be equals to the slope of equilibrium line. So the Absorption factor becomes equal to one, the separation is not possible.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 9

 For the Absorber design the plotting with mole ratio helps to find the

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 9

Explanation: The plot with mole fraction will give an operating line as a curve; it will be very difficult to find the slope of the operating line. Therefore the use of mole ratio plot will give us a liner operating line.

Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 10

Given for an absorber, the minimum non diffusing liquid flow rate is 20 moles/hr and the non diffusing gas flow rate is 30 moles/hr. As the actual liquid flow rate is 2.5 times the minimum. Find the slope of operating line.

Detailed Solution for Test: Operating Line Concept For Absorption - Question 10

Explanation: Ls= 2.5 (Ls min)
Slope= (2.5 x 20)/30 =1.67
