Chemical Engineering
McCabe-Thiele Method Calculator
Estimates the number of theoretical trays needed to separate a binary mixture by distillation given compositions, reflux ratio, and relative volatility. Useful for preliminary column design and feasibility studies.

Chemical Engineering
Gas Absorption Column Design Calculator
Design a packed gas absorption column by calculating the number of overall gas-phase transfer units (NOG) and total column height needed to achieve a target gas-phase separation. Used in scrubber design for air pollution control and chemical processing.
