Uma coluna de absorção com área da seção recta transversal de 0,52 m 2, contendo
Anéis Raschig de 2 ½”, é utilizada para a recuperação da amônia de uma corrente de
ar. A coluna opera a 20oC e 1 atm e recebe uma mistura de ar amônia (MM =
29g/mol) com 7,6 mol% de amônia, a uma vazão de 20 mol/h. O gás estabelece
contato com uma corrente de água com uma vazão de 35% maior que a mínima
necessária. Nas condições praticadas, considerando o recheio e o sistema ar-amônia
sob pressão atmosférica, a altura equivalente a um prato teórico é dada por (SETE

Stichlmair Constants
Example
A tower packed with 1 in. Ceramic Intalox saddles is to be built to
treat 25,000 ft3/ hr of entering gas. The ammonia content of the
entering gas is 2 percent by volume. Ammonia-free water is used as
the absorbent. The temperature is 68 F and the pressure is 1 atm.
The ratio of the gas flow to the liquid flow is 1 lb of gas per lb of
liquid.
The tower diameter is 1.67 ft.
Using both the Leva plot and the Stichlmair correlation determine the
total tower pressure drop if the tower packed height is 20 feet.
10 Minute Problem
An air-water test is being run on a 10 foot bed of 1
inch (25 mm) metal Pall rings. The air rate is 350 ft3 /
min and the liquid rate is 15 GPM / ft2. The tower is
16.8 inches in diameter, the operating pressure is 1
atm and the temperature is 80 F. What is the total
column pressure drop?
