distillation tower

May I ask what the reasonable range for the height-to-diameter ratio of a distillation tower is? The distillation tower I calculated for an annual production of 800,000 tons of methanol, with a diameter of 7 meters and a height of 27 meters – is that reasonable?

It is necessary to know what type of trays are used, the parameters of those trays, as well as the type of packing and its parameters; in addition, information on the feed rate and feed composition is required, along with a range of other data needed for calculations

So, what is the reasonable range for the height-to-diameter ratio of a distillation tower?
Reply #42017-04-25
The tower height is determined by the separation precision, and the tower diameter is determined by the load capacity. Are there any regulations in books or textbooks regarding the height-to-diameter ratio of the tower?

What other conditions are needed? Under certain conditions, the distillation tower I designed looks like this; I want to know whether it is feasible

The tower height is determined by the separation accuracy, while the tower diameter is determined by the load capacity; there are many factors to consider, and it is necessary to determine a relatively reasonable and economical height-to-diameter ratio.

Well, thank you. I’ll ask our teacher whether my design is reasonable The teacher said that as long as the height-to-diameter ratio of the tower is within a reasonable range, it is acceptable. That’s why I asked about the reasonable range for the height-to-diameter ratio. May I add your contact information? My WeChat ID is 361091559.

This one is a bit short and chubby; it doesn’t look like a tower, but rather like a reactor.

The tower diameter has basically no relation to the tower height; it is the length-to-diameter ratio of the container that matters.
