How long should the residence time in a typical gas-liquid separator be? A few minutes?
I’d like to know too. . . . .
Gas-liquid separation is related to the medium used; in addition, controlling the flow rate of the medium is essential for gas-liquid separation, with this rate generally should be below 1.2 m/s. As for the space available, a residence time of 10–15 seconds is usually required. This is based on experience and is provided for reference only.
Agree with the person above; a few minutes is way too long
How is the volume of a vapor-liquid separator calculated? Based on what?
The volume of the liquid separation tank is calculated based on flow velocity, flow rate, and residence time
The residence time or turnover time of the gas-liquid separation tank is 3-5 minutes. It is possible to search for the design of chemical process unit equipment
The residence time or turnover time of the gas-liquid separation tank is 3-5 minutes. , agree with the person above
The residence time in the gas-liquid separator is too short to ensure an appropriate liquid level……
It depends on how you calculate it; the algorithms used domestically are different from those used abroad. In China, it’s a fuzzy algorithm that covers everything; the time is around 15 minutes. Abroad, there’s a controlled algorithm with a SURGE TIME of 3 to 5 minutes.
For such a professional question, it’s better to leave it to a professional
