Determine the required moles of steam

Reference no: EM131318211

An exhaust stream leaving a semiconductor fabrication plant contains 4 mol % volatile organic chemical, VOC, pollutant. Twenty-five cubic meters per minute enter the bottom of a packed absorption tower and flows countercurrent to an initially VOC-free solvent stream that was fed to the top of the tower. At the given temperature and pressure of the system, the equilibrium of the system will obey Henry's law as represented by

a. Determine the moles of solvent required per mole of VOC free carrier gas if the exiting gas stream is to contain only 0.2 mol % VOC and if 1.5 times the minimum solvent is used.

b. Determine the mole fraction composition of the exiting liquid.
