ANALYSIS OF ABSORPTION PROCESS AND ABSORBER DEVICE IN GAS PURIFICATION PROCESS

The process of selective absorption of one or more components in a gas or vapor mixture in a liquid is called absorption. The gas absorbed is called an absorbent; the absorbing liquid is called an absorbent. Depending on the interaction of the absorbent with the absorbent, the absorption process is of two types: physical absorption and chemical absorption (chemisorption). In physical absorption, the absorbent does not chemically combine with the absorbed gas. Chemisorption is when the absorbed gas interacts with the absorbent to form a chemical compound.
