The high liquid level in the reflux tank at the top of the fractionation tower is the cause of overfilling in the coke tower

Reasons for tower flooding in coke ovens. . . . There are two items in the Q&A on delayed coking technology: The liquid level in the oil-water separation tank at the top of the fractionation tower is too high ; The reflux flow at the top of the distillation tower is high. I don’t understand; please give me some guidance

The oil-water separation is not effective; water is carried back with the reflux stream, and the amount of reflux is high, resulting in a low temperature at the top of the tower. Light oil and water flow toward the higher-temperature section at the bottom of the tower, where boiling occurs abruptly and causes flooding of the tower.
