Nowadays distillation process despite its high energy consumption is the main separation technique in ethanol, pharmaceutical, petrochemical and chemical factory. The divided wall distillation column (DWC) and is considered a very attractive solution for reduction of energy and investment in separation distillation.
Maleta cyclic distillation LLC in 2014 year build first tray divided wall distillation column DN 1500/1700 mm that operation in cyclic mode. The cyclic distillation technology has opportunity to combine the required number of columns for the separation of multicomponent mixtures in a one column and have advantages over usual parked DWC-columns:
Maleta cyclic distillation LLC in 2014 year build first tray divided wall distillation column DN 1500/1700 mm that operation in cyclic mode. The cyclic distillation technology has opportunity to combine the required number of columns for the separation of multicomponent mixtures in a one column and have advantages over usual parked DWC-columns:
- price of tray dividing-wall columns is much lower than common DWC-column;
- better process control
- simpler column design;
- the uniform arrangement of liquid on the tray;
- faster and more precise installation;
- mass transfer efficiency of cyclic distillation;
- faster and simpler revamping of existing column.
We propose next configurations of the tray dividing-wall columns: azeotropic dividing-wall columns; reactive dividing-wall columns; extractive dividing-wall columns; dividing-wall columns for four-component mixtures.
Our company supplies full engineering service for DWC technology - simulation, design, manufacturing, additional project equipment, chef installation, guaranty and post-guaranty service.
