CO2 Absorbent Usage Measured by CO2 Mass Balances in the Circle Breathing System Versus Titration

Description

This research project examines whether CO2 mass balances in a circle breathing system with a fresh gas flow of 300 mL/min are equally accurate at measuring CO2 absorbent usage as directly titrating the CO2 absorption capacity of the absorbent itself. If this is true, circle breathing system mass balance can be used to measure absorbent efficiency
