The GUNT Gas Absorption unit demonstrates the process of removing gaseous components, specifically CO₂, from an air stream using a water solvent. This trainer allows for real-time observation of gas-liquid absorption and regeneration cycles. With comprehensive instrumentation and sample ports, it offers ideal hands-on experience for students in chemical engineering, environmental engineering, and process technology.
Product Features
- Generates an adjustable CO₂-air mixture using controlled valves and visible flow rate indicators
- Compressor feeds gas mixture into the lower section of the absorption column for counterflow separation
- Water used as the solvent to absorb CO₂ from the gas mixture
- Charged water flows into a desorption column for solvent regeneration
- Regeneration via temperature increase and pressure reduction to release absorbed CO₂
- Heater controls the water temperature; water jet pump creates vacuum in the desorption column
- Recirculation pump feeds regenerated water back into the absorption column
- Continuously monitored flow rate, pressure, and temperature throughout the process
- Two-section column includes U-tube manometers for displaying pressure losses in each section
- Sample outlets allow collection of gas and liquid for performance evaluation
- Includes a hand-held gas measuring device for on-site CO₂ concentration analysis
Benefits
- Complete cycle demonstration from absorption to desorption and solvent regeneration
- Ideal for studying mass transfer, gas-liquid equilibrium, and column efficiency
- Practical sample ports support hands-on data collection and process evaluation
