An open-en ded, gas-abso rber design experiment has been developed for the undergr aduat e chemical engineering laborato ry. The experiment utilizes the Design-BuildTest (DBT) approach. Student teams are asked to design a column to perform a specific task , par tially build or configure the physical equipment for their design and operat e the gas absorber to test their design. Each laborato ry team conducting the experiment is assigned a unique objective involving the absor ption o f carbon dioxide, ammonia or ethanol from an air stream flowing at a specified rate. The experiment provides several choices of column diameter and packing types and size from which students can choose to complete their design.
