Seeking help from experts: water removal in a methanol wash tower
Thread Content
Does anyone know how to reduce the water content in the effluent from the methanol wash tower?
1. Reduce the liquefaction control in the methanol water washing tower； 2. Reduce the feed rate; overloading is strictly prohibited ； 3. Reducing the temperature of the wash tower has a certain effect on reducing water vapor entrainment in the material ； 4. Clean the tray to prevent blockages ； 5. A demister can be tried
The water inlet of the liquid feed pipe can be redirected to the second tray, or a demister can be added
High-efficiency vane-type mist eliminators can be used; they feature high separation efficiency, no clogging, and technical solutions can be provided.
It seems that the high temperature of the desalinated water or the gas entering the wash tower is the cause; try to reduce the temperature of these two fluids as much as possible
