A packed column is used to reduce the levels of a pollu- tant in a gas stream from a mole fraction of 0.025 to a mole fraction of 0.00015. The gas stream lows at a rate of 10.0 m3/min while pure water enters the top of the column at a rate of 15.0 kg/min. The 2.25 m diameter tower will be packed with 19 mm ceramic Raschig rings, providing an interfacial surface area-to-volume ratio of 262 m2/m3. The overall mass-transfer coefficient based on the gas-phase driving force is 69.4 mol/m2 h. The system operates at 40°C and atmospheric pressure. The pollutant follows the Henry's law relation with the Ben- ry's law constant equal to 1.75 x 105 Pa. Probiem 27 The total height of packing required to achieve the de- sired separation is most nearly (A) 1.61 ㎡ (B) 5.81 m (C) 20.3 r (D) 53.5 m

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/'s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from control volume inlet to exit. the liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet is 40.09 btu/lb and at the exit is 40.94 btub. the pump requires 3 btu/s of power to operate. if kinetic energy effects are negligible and gravitational acceleration is 32.174 tt/s, the heat transfer rate associated with this steady state process is most closely 1)-2,02 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings 2)-3.98 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 3)-4.96 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 4)-1.04 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.
