Description

WWA Wetted Wall Absorption Pilot Plant Educational Training Equipment Fluids Engineering Experiment Equipment

Wetted wall columns have been designed to study the absorption of air oxygen into deoxygenated water prepared with nitrogen.

Training program

This unit enables to deepen the following issues:

• Calculation of mass transfer coefficient in liquid film
• How flow rates of water and air can affect the mass transfer coefficient
