Customized Distillation Column Solutions for Your Needs
Distillation Columns Used in Refineries: Features and Types
1. Height and Diameter: Distillation columns vary in size based on the refinery’s capacity. Typically, they range from 30 to 70 meters in height and 2 to 10 meters in diameter.
2. Material: Made from durable materials like stainless steel or alloy steel, which can withstand high temperatures and corrosive environments.
3. Plates and Packings: Equipped with plates or packings that facilitate the contact between vapor and liquid, ensuring effective separation of fractions.
4. Heat Recovery: Designed with heat recovery systems to enhance energy efficiency.
Atmospheric Distillation Column:
• Function: The initial stage in refining crude oil, separating components with lower boiling points such as gasoline, diesel, and kerosene.
• Application: Used at the beginning of the refining process.
Vacuum Distillation Column:
• Function: Processes the heavier residues left after atmospheric distillation at lower temperatures to prevent thermal cracking and separate heavier fractions.
• Application: Used after atmospheric distillation to handle heavy fuel oils and other high-boiling-point fractions.
