Absorption of Chlorine into Aqueous Sodium Hydroxide System

K. S. Agrawal

The absorption of chlorine into aqueous hydroxide solutions is one of the important systems having industrial importance and also is of theoretical interest. Danckwerts (1950a and 1950b),Sherwood and Pigford (1952), Brian et al. (1965), Hikita et al. (1972), Hikita et al. (1973 ) and Takahashi et al. (1967) have studied the gas absorption using mathematical models. In this paper, we have developed a mathematical model and analyzed the experimental data obtained by us and Hikita et al. (1973) on the basis of the penetration theory for gas absorption accompanied by a two step instantaneous chemical reaction. In this work, the rate of absorption in the jet ejector is studied by using 𝐶ð�?�?2 aqueous ð�?ð�?�?ð�?�?𝐻 system at 300𝐶
