Green absorption tower
Thread Content
What are the things to keep in mind when simulating a green oil absorption tower? I didn’t include a reboiler or a condenser, so why isn’t the simulation converging? It’s strange
Green absorption tower? What is it used for? I’m hearing about this device for the first time, haha
It’s not that it’s easier to achieve convergence without using reboilers and condenser columns; if convergence isn’t achieved, one should first check the operation prompts and identify the cause based on those prompts
Reply to 3# lbaizyh: It’s done, but I’m not sure if it’s correct; I haven’t had time to consult the engineer yet, hehe
I also want to ask in what situations green absorption towers are generally used?
It seems to be used in ethylene plants, behind the hydrogenation reactor
Reply to 5# sanjing05: It is a tower used after the acetylene hydrogenation reactor to absorb ethylene oligomers. However, due to the high selectivity of the catalysts used today, relatively little oligomer is formed; sometimes only one separation tank is needed.
That is, these days people just use a can to absorb it.
