( design of packed bed column for gass absorption)

Supervisor:_ mr.Ali Husain

Introduction:
packed bed is a hollow tube, pipe, or other vessel that is filled with a packing material. The
packing can be randomly filled with small objects like Raschig rings or else it can be a
specifically designed structured packing. Packed beds may also contain catalyst particles or
adsorbents such as zeolite pellets, granular activated carbon, etc.
The purpose of a packed bed is typically to improve contact between two phases in a
chemical or separation process for achieving rapid mass and heat transfer, and particularly
in the case of fluidized beds, catalytic chemical reactions. Packed beds can be used in
chemical reactors, scrubbers, strippers, and absorbers.
