This document provides an example exercise involving the scrubbing of SO2 gas using a packed column with water. It asks the reader to: 1) Calculate the L/Lmin ratio based on the inlet/outlet SO2 concentrations and gas/liquid flow rates. 2) Determine the number of theoretical stages (NOG) and compare to the HETP calculation. 3) Calculate the height of transfer unit (HOG) and HETP from the operating data. 4) Find the volumetric gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient (KGa) using the given partial pressure driving force relationship.
