Tray Type Selection
When selecting between AMISTCO sieve, valve, bubble cap, dual flow and baffle type trays, it is important that all performance considerations are taken into account including:
• Pressure drop
• Turndown
• Capacity
• Efficiency
In addition to the list of performance factors, you should also take into account fouling and other characteristics specific to the process. The key, of course, is to balance the various tray types and other tower components so that the process is optimized, safe and reliable over the long haul.
