Pignat's state-of-the-art, hands-on Controlled Absorption & Regeneration Unit (ABR/3000) allows students to study the gas-liquid absorption process and the regeneration solvent process all-in-one. The solute migration process from the gas to liquid phase occurs when both phases are in contact in the packing of the reverse flow absorption column. This highlights the absorption operation (solvent purification).

The regeneration process is observed on the second column, which is continuously fed. An energy‐saving heat exchanger is placed between the two columns to optimize energy usage. With this unit, students are able to study various control loops, determine mass balance, and process efficiency. The unit also includes a LabView monitoring system.
