The number stages in ideal mixing of phases NT and the number of stages which involves axial mixing ND were determined. The authors of this paper conclude that the influence of axial mixing does not affect the number stages in the countercurrent absorber. Otherwise, absorption in this concrete system is practically present in the process of soda ash production. %K Soda ash production %K absorption %K NaCl-H2O system %K NH3-CO2-H2O system %K absorber with countercurrent grating stages %U http://academicpublishingplatforms.com/article.php?journal=ATI&number=2&article=288
