Question

Chemical Engineering, Separations

Acidic gases, such as CO2 and H₂S, must be removed from natural gas prior to use.
You want to remove the H₂S from a feed gas that is 1% mol H₂S and the rest CH4. In a single
stage the feed gas, with 100 mol/minute of CH4, will be passed through water. Assume that water
will not go into the gas, and that CH4 will not go into the water. The solubility of H₂S in water
can be described by Henry's Law, see the attached Figure. How much water (in L/min) do you
need so that the feed gas exits with 0.15% mol H₂S at 25 °C and pressure of 68 atm?
