In my chemical engineering design course we have to calculate the height of an absorber tower for a CCS(Carbon Capture and Storage) Plant with a capacity of 240,000 tonCO2/yr(27777kg/h). I used McCabe method but the height must be realistic and i have no idea if its realistic.
What is the range or average height for the height of the absorber?
This is very big plant and you can calculate the absorption tower height. You read Mass transfer operation by Robert Treybal. The absorption tower L/D ratio you can calculate by this attached articles.

it is depend on the flow rate of flue gases and CO2 concentration,
