Process Equipment and Plant Design
Overall mass transfer co-efficient in case of absorption of __________ in water is based on the gas film co-efficient only, as the mass transfer process is gas film (phase) controlling.
In flash (equilibrium) distillation, a definite fraction of liquid is vaporised in such a way that the evolved vapour & residual liquids are in equilibrium with each other
Flash distillation, differential distillation & steam distillation are all continuous distillation processes
Distillation under vacuum is a substitute for steam distillation
In differential (simple) distillation, the vapour is removed as soon as it is formed without appreciable condensation
