The rates of desorption of carbon dioxide from supersaturated water solutions into pure carbon dioxide or nitrogen gas stream were measured at 15,25, and 35°C in a baffled agitated vessel with a flat gas‐liquid interface operated in a continuous manner. The volumetric liquid‐phase mass transfer coefficients for the bubbles generated in the agitated liquid and the enhancement factors of the volumetric liquid‐phase mass transfer coefficient for the free liquid surface due to the bubbling were calculated from the measured desorption rates and correlated as functions of the relative supersaturation of the solution and the liquid‐phase Reynolds number.
