Fractionation columns
Description
Liquid product separation is a key processing issue in process effluent purification/separation. Confidence in the product quality obtained is an absolute necessity in process R&D and catalyst evaluation. Strata Technology has a wide experience in the application, design and operation of fractionation facilities for liquid separation using, e.g. vacuum columns, molecular still distillation, debutanisers, atmospheric stabilisers and fractionators, as well as catalytic distillation systems.
Features
Design experience in the design and operation of a wide variety of vacuum, atmospheric and pressurised distillation columns in oil/chemicals processing
Operational experience for variety of gas/liquid and liquid phases, confidence in product and process data obtained
Optimised product separation using e.g. structured packing, gas stripping and internal reflux facilities, enhanced wetting efficiencies, whilst minimising product decomposition.
