STUDIES ON THE REACTIONS BETWEEN GAS AND SOLID. PART II. ABSORPTION OF CO2 BY CaO AND Ca(OH)2

Abstract

(1) It was determened experimentally that the velocity of absorption of CO2 by Ca(OH)2 is proportional to the concentration of CO2 (or partial pressure of CO2) in the air, and to the absorbing capacity of the substance: (Remark: Graphics omitted.) (2) For the change of weight due to the absorption of dry CO2 by dry Ca(OH)2 the following equation was proposed (Remark: Graphics omitted.) and was also experimentally discussed.
