Distillation Columns Buying Considerations

  • Determine the type of separation required to select the appropriate column design, whether tray or packed.
  • Consider the materials being processed to ensure compatibility and corrosion resistance of the column material.
  • Evaluate column height and diameter as they affect separation efficiency and capacity.
  • Assess the column's condenser and reboiler requirements based on process specifics.
  • Ensure the column has suitable control systems to maintain stable operation and product quality.
