Using (12) above and the input variables, the
removal efficiency was computed by considering the
liquid to gas ratios recommended by US Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA, [17]): β1 = 0.7 l/m3, β2 = 1.7
l/m3 and β3 = 2.7 l/m3 and the results are presented in
Tables 2, 3 and 4.
Steps for the determination of the input variables
are presented below:
