Strange phenomenon occurs in the reflux pipeline of the refining tower

2009-04-18View Original

Thread Content

Today, strange phenomena occurred in the styrene refining tower of the styrene plant.: Water hammer occurs in the return pipeline after the regulating valve, including the return filter, but there is no such phenomenon from the outlet of the return pump to the regulating valve. The pressure gauge indicates stable and the tower operation is stable. What is the reason?

Look at the pressure difference between the pump outlet and the regulating valve. It may be that the return filter is clogged, and the pressure difference between the front and back is too large, causing part of the return liquid to vaporize, resulting in water hammer.

Thanks for the participation upstairs, but the reason is not that, the pressure difference is not big, and the switch is performed!

Is it because the pressure drops rapidly after adjusting the valve, resulting in vaporization and air blockage?

The process operating conditions have not changed, and no abnormal phenomena occurred before. The problem just appeared recently! I hope everyone will pay more attention to it, and thank you for your active participation in Styrene Prawn to help solve production problems! We are also actively searching and will announce the latest findings as soon as they are found!
