A Stripper is used to represent an equipment resource typically used to host a stripping procedure with a main objective to carry out a removal of material by stripping of components from the liquid phase to the gaseous phase. The procedure can be executed in a batch or continuous mode.

Stripper: Equipment Tab

See Absorber: Equipment Tab.

Sizing: Design Mode

In Calculate (Design Mode), the user specifies the maximum column diameter and either the pressure drop or the pressure drop to length ratio from the Stripping: Oper. Conds Tab and the systems computes the number of units and the column diameter and height. For more information on the sizing of the absorber column, see Stripping: Modeling Calculations.

Sizing: Rating Mode

In User-Defined (Rating Mode), the user specifies values for Number of Units, column Diameter and Height.

Costing

The equipment purchase cost is based on the column diameter and height. It includes cost of the packing material and it is supplied by the built-in model assuming as material of construction CS.
