Show Hint
In separation and processing:
- "Hold-up" means liquid content fraction.
- "Carryover" means liquid carried in gas.
- "Blowby" means gas carried in liquid.
- "Dehydration" always means water removal.

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Match each term. \begin{itemize} \item (P) Liquid hold-up → Refers to the fraction of pipe volume occupied by liquid → (IV). \item (Q) Liquid carryover → Means free liquid escaping with gas phase (undesired carryover into gas stream) → (III). \item (R) Gas blowby → Refers to free gas escaping with liquid phase (undesired breakthrough) → (II). \item (S) Gas dehydration → Main goal is water removal → (I). \end{itemize} Step 2: Final matching. \[ P \to IV, \quad Q \to III, \quad R \to II, \quad S \to I \] Final Answer: \[ \boxed{P–IV;\; Q–III;\; R–II;\; S–I} \]
