___________ tower is the most suitable gas-liquid contacting device involving highly corrosive fluids?
Correct answer: A. Packed
- A. Packed
- B. Sieve plate
- C. Bubble cap plate
- D. None of these
Explanation
Packed towers are preferred for highly corrosive fluids because packing can be made from corrosion-resistant materials and provides no complex tray mechanisms exposed to the fluid. Sieve and bubble-cap trays usually involve more vulnerable metallic hardware.
