Gaseous Mass Transfer and Diffusion Unit

The Gaseous Mass Transfer and Diffusion Unit, allows the students to familiarize with the theoretical concepts about mass transfer unit operations, specifically the diffusion of a volatile liquid in an inert gas, obtaining very useful experimental data and results for the good practical understanding of the process and, therefore, for the technical training of the students.
