Regarding the issue of the tower diameter for plate towers, I hope everyone will kindly share their insights

I have a question: what is the general minimum diameter for plate distillation columns in industrial applications? Are there any with a diameter of 350mm–500mm? How can tray plates be installed and maintenance be carried out with such a small diameter?

All of them can be implemented; I’m not sure what type of tray you need to fill. Please make it explicit.

In the early days, the manufacturing method involved stacking and welding. The precision of mechanical processing is very high these days; could we consider manufacturing the tray plates in block form and stacking them layer by layer, for reference.

I didn’t understand. Please explain in detail. Can you attach a photo? Thank you!

It involves processing the tray, overflow weir, and other components together into a single unit for positioning. Stuff them into the cylinder one by one.

An overflow-free cross-flow tray was selected and designed in the shape of a sugar-coated hawthorn, to facilitate hanging installation from the top.

No overflow? So how is the liquid holdup on the tray ensured? Please explain it

You will understand if you look at the sections on \"cross-flow trays\" in relevant textbooks or manuals.
