One of the most important factors in unit operations is distillation. The distillation and cooling processes occur by utilizing the internals. Internals, as important as they are to the operation, are not easily accessible. This is why it is imperative to choose the proper internals for the tower. Having the best option possible will allow for less down time and more production.
Here is a list of differences between packed and tray towers as well as the advantages of choosing tower packing technology.
Packed Tower Design and Applications
Tower packing creates a large amount of surface area per volume where the liquid-vapor mass transfer will occur. The vertical positioning of the surfaces allows for far more even flow during which the vapor and liquid remain in continuous contact with the packed bed surfaces. Unlike the step*based contact of the tray bed tower, this process is uninterrupted, improving flow and increasing the overall volume of processed vapor.
This was a brief overview of the packed tower design and applications. If you’d like to consult our specialists and decide which of them is best for your process, feel free to contact us.
