Why is it said that increasing the pressure in the tower can improve its processing capacity?

How should this sentence be understood? ? ? ? ?
As pressure and temperature increase, mass and heat transfer also increase, thereby raising the processing capacity within the operating flexibility range of the tower.
As pressure increases, the volume of the gas decreases; within the same tower volume, the volumetric flow rate of the processed gas increases.
As the pressure in the tower increases, the gas phase pressure inside the tower also rises. As a result, the volume of gas passing through a certain cross-section of the tower per unit time increases, leading to greater mass transfer between gas and liquid. Consequently, the processing capacity increases as well, of course within the operational limits of the tower.
After learning this, the tower pressure increases and the flow rate increases; therefore, the processing capacity is achieved
As the column pressure increases, the gas flow rate in the column rises, resulting in an increased processing capacity. Similarly, when the load on the tower is increased, the first obvious effect is an increase in tower pressure
