Xi'an Bell Tower (the Bell Tower) is a state-level ancient relic in China. The vibration caused by metro will exert adverse effect on the Bell Tower. This paper aims at presenting 3D-FEM models to predict the peak period velocity (PPV) of rammed earth base when the metro passing through the Bell Tower. The calculation results are compared with those of field test. Both results were found to be ...

Development of chemical industry and high vapor pressure of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been caused that these materials recently be considered as a source of air pollution. These are different methods for separation of VOC from air that absorption by suitable and selective solvent is an efficient method. In this research, mathematical modeling of a packed absorption tower for separa...

In natural gas treatment, the removal of CO2 and H2S in acid gases is a critical concern. There are various purification technologies that can be used for the removal of acid gas impurities. Absorption of acid gas into amines is one preferred method in gas industries. In the past, single amines was used, but recently in order to improve absorption performance, mixed amines with different solubi...

in this investigation, the performance of a tower for absorption of sulphur dioxide gas into calcium carbonate solution has been studied. the trays had no downcomer and the tower itself was a scaled down pilot from industrial equipment. the industrial scale tower was used for clean up of 110000 m3/hr gas using 40 m3/hr alkaline solution. the study was composed of two parts. in the first section...

In this work, CO2 capture by post-combustion using MEA is considered. The mechanistic model for the absorption process is elaborated and includes specie and energy balances for the liquid and gas phases. Model predictive control is implemented as a control strategy for the absorption column.
