4. The concentration of undesirable impurity in air (at 1 bar = l05 Pa) is to be
reduced from 0.1% (or 100 Pa) to 0.02% (or 20 Pa) by absorption in pure water.
Find the height of tower required for countercurrent operations. HA(Henry's law

W
constant) 12.5 Pa. m3/mol, The flow rates per meter squared cross section of
tower are Fg/A 1 x 105 mol/hr m2, Fl/A, = 7 X lo5 mol/hr m2. The molar

5. Yagi et al. (1951) roasted pyrrhotite (iron sulfide) particles dispersed in asbestos
fibers and found that the time for complete conversion was related to particle size
as follows: Γ α R1.5 Particles remained as hard solids of unchanging size during

J
reaction. A fluidized-bed reactor is planned to convert pyrrhotite ore to the
corresponding oxide. The feed is to be uniform in size, I = 20 min, with mean
residence time t = 60 min in the reactor. What fraction of original sulfide ore
remains unconverted?

6. Discuss about Mixed Flow of a Size Mixture of Particles of Unchanging Size,


Uniform Gas Composition
