Requires a greater reflux ratio and condenscr duty. The disparity becomes greater as the separation becomes easier. 2. Requires fewer operating trays. The disparity becomes greater as the separation becomes easier. 3. Requires a lower reboiler duty in every case but one. The disparity becomes greater as the separation becomes easier. 4. Requires greater column area with the load tray being in the rectifying section. Thus, if swaging is not practical, the only tower design economy can be...

Balance Calculations Type U Atmospheric Tower
The following calculations will illustrate in detail the procedure for calculating the heat and material balance quantities around a Type U atmospheric crude tower. The design will be based on fractionating dry crude feed into a residuum, four sidedraw distillates, and an overhead yielded as two products, one liquid and one vapor. A.

Basic Processes for Atmospheric Crude Distillation The distillation of crude petroleum into fractions having different properties is similar to many more familiar types of fractionation processes although, on the surface, this may not appear to be so.

Vapor and liquid traffic for Types U, R and A atmospheric towers. Figure 2.5. Vapor and liquid traffic for Types U, R and A atmospheric towers. A typical light hydrocarbon separation is that of fractionating between propane and n-butane. This problem requires that the designer provide a sufficiency of trays and reflux to satisfy the composition specifications. Satisfying the trays-reflux requirements depends upon the specified separation requirements of the process and the inherent...
