Ammonia Absorber Calculation

The document provides gas composition data from various stages of a purge gas and recovery unit (PGRU) coldbox process. It shows: 1) The inlet and outlet flows and compositions for the front-end C-550 absorber, including 28,000 kg/hr of inlet NH3. 2) The 25796 Nm3/hr outlet gas flow from the C-550 being fed to the coldbox. 3) An hydrogen balance across the coldbox, showing 10497 Nm3/hr of H2 in the purge gas inlet, 8108 Nm3/hr in the high-pressure product H2 stream, and 1033 Nm3/hr in the tail gas stream,
