The function of the water seal in the conversion system

Thread Content

The function of the water seal in the conversion system: Besides preventing gas from entering the converted gas when the liquid level in the saturated tower is low, thereby avoiding an excess level of carbon monoxide in the gas, I believe it also helps to remove waste substances and prevent blockage of the packing in the hot water tower. Do you think it has any other functions?

We also carry out soft water replacement from the water seal.

The principle of level control in a saturated hot water tower is achieved through the pressure difference between the two towers (pressure conversion)! So, the essence remains the same: as long as the pressure drop across the two towers is within an appropriate range, that’s sufficient. One of the functions of the U-shaped water seal is to maintain a certain pressure drop between the two towers and prevent gas leakage, thereby ensuring safety. As long as the liquid level remains between 1/2 and 2/3, other problems such as difficulty in lowering the liquid level hardly occur.

Haha, there are really a lot of night owls on weekends. The water seal in a saturated hot water tower is used to prevent gas from leaking into the shift gas. It can be made into a device, or a U-tube can be used (the larger the better). There are no other advantages; waste can be discharged directly from the bottom of the saturated tower.

a The conversion system in my unit contains catalyst dust carried by the gas after conversion, and all of this dust accumulates in the saturation tower. And the packing in the hot water tower is of good quality. Last edited by snowdfr on 2009-4-20 15:15.]

In simple terms, it is a safety device designed to prevent excessive low liquid levels in the saturated tower and excessive pressure differences between the two towers, which could lead to gas mixing and result in excessive CO levels at the outlet
