Carbon dioxide stripping tower
Thread Content
There are over 4,000 rising pipes in the stripping tower, which are held in place by ten pressure plates. After one year of operation, maintenance was carried out; however, the stripping tower was not serviced. When it was restarted, the temperature inside the tower became extremely high. Upon stopping the operation for inspection, it was found that there were bulges in the middle of all ten pressure plates located within the upper head of the tower, with the three plates at the liquid inlet area being particularly affected. I would appreciate it if experts could help analyze what caused this issue. Thank you! !
Is it caused by medium erosion? What is the material of the pressure plate?
First, we need to study the working principle of this tower. Is it produced at low temperature? Is water supplied? (I’ve never seen this thing; it’s just a guess.) ）
