Comaprison of Mass-Transfer Efficiencies of Scc and Structured Packing
Authors
Abstract:
In a previous paper, pressure drop, flooding and mass-transfer characteristics of a novel pilot-scale distillation column called spinning cone column (SCC) were presented. Here, we present the result of comparison of mass-transfer efficiencies of SCC and structured packing. Comparison of SCC and structured packing mass-transfer characteristics show that the gas and liquid-side height of transfer units (HTUs) of the SCC are on the average 20% and 50% lower than the corresponding values for structured packing respectively. This in turn results in lower HETPs of the SCC for practical applications. Predicted HETPs in ethanol distillation using SCC are 30% lower than those of structured packing. Predicted HETPs for fusel oil and orange oil distillations are also 45% and 35% lower respectively than the experimental values obtained for structured packing. From these results, it is concluded that SCCs are more efficient with respect to mass-transfer than this particular structured packing, but to draw a general conclusion, more specific data on pressure drop per NTS, and liquid hold-up and residence time of the two columns should be available.

Mass transfer performance of modular catalytic structured packing
A mechanistic, parallel channel model was developed and validated experimentally to enable the prediction of mass transfer performance of the Katapak-SP, a novel, modular catalytic structured packing. Total reflux distillation experiments were carried out at atmospheric pressure in a column with internal diameter of 0.45 m, using aqueous (Methanol/Water) and organic (Cyclohexane/n-Heptane) test...

The mass transfer performance the Katapakw-SP has been evaluated experimentally and the Delft MCSP model, a parallel channel model is developed to predict the HETP as function of F-factor. Pilot scale (i.d. 450 mm) total reflux distillation experiments were done with an aqueous system Methanol/Water and organic system Cyclohexane/n-Heptane. With the latter, two types of Katapak-SP were tested. ...

KATAPAK-S is a type of structured catalytic packing, which is used in reactive distillation processes. The dry pressure drop characteristic (the pressure drop in the absence of liquid flow) is of significant importance for the investigation of process hydrodynamics. In this paper, the dry pressure drop within the catalyst packed channels of KATAPAK-S has been investigated using Computational Fl...
