To remove volatile contaminants, such as ammonia, carbon dioxide, or hydrogen sulfide, by transferring them from the liquid phase to the gas phase using air or steam.
Salient features
- Removes volatile gases (e.g., NH₃, CO₂, H₂S) from water
- Uses counter-current air or steam flow for efficient stripping
- Typically packed or tray-based tower design
- Operates under ambient or elevated temperatures
- Used in processes like de-gassing, and removal of ammonia, volatile compounds
