I am undertaking laboratory pilot study. I need to calculate the efficiency of the packing.
How does one determine the efficiency from the material balances?
 

Absorption %efficiency = 100*(1-out/in)
That's easy :)
 
I wrote you an FAQ- check for it on monday. This will give you packing HETP. In the meantime see my reply in thread124-140090 for the basic approach.

best wishes,

Dionigi gave you a good solution and am sure that should solve your problem.But ensure all the parameters ae in their proper set point and no upset before you carryout your analysis.
