Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of 1-hexadecanol on the overall mass transfer coefficients (KOL) of acetoluene repressenting low and high volatile organic compounds (VOC). A series of evaporation experiments water bath in order to control the water temperature. The water temperature range of 25-35 °C was investigated. The initial concentrations of acetone and toluene in water were about 100 and 200 mg/L, respectively. The amounts of 1-hexadecanol added were varied from 0 to 32 µg/cm². The air temperati=ure kwas constant at 28±1°C for all experiments. The KOL vaiues of both VOC
