Sweny, J W

There are a large number of commercial processes available today for purifying natural, synthesis, and synthetic gases containing acid gases and other impurities. Quite recently a new family of solvents and processes has appeared offering technical and economic improvements. Known as physical solvents, their use allows for more freedom and versatility of design than that found with the more conventional chemical processes. Based upon well known physical and thermodynamic concepts, proven applications have allowed for the development of improved design methods.
