Regarding the issue of high moisture levels in the distillation system!
Thread Content
The distillation system in the workshop has a relatively high water content of around 160PPM. The condenser of the tower often gets clogged with ice, and the temperature of the condensed material is -6°C or even lower. When ice blockage occurs, the pressure at the top of the condenser and the pressure at its bottom differ by more than ten KPA, while under normal conditions this difference is only 4 KPA. The condenser is usually about five to six meters in height. I would like to ask everyone how to remove tower moisture without stopping the process.
1. Remove water before entering the distillation tower； 2. Condenser condensing medium or reduced cooling load ； 3. Adding steam for fumigation during feeding
It seems that the moisture keeps circulating inside the tower and can’t get out. I’ve tried reducing the amount of refrigerant to bring the temperature back to normal, as well as increasing the evaporation rate in an attempt to get the moisture to leave. But it doesn’t seem to work much
