Packed column distillation is limited to the column _____________ metres?
Correct answer: C. Both A. & B.
- A. Height < 6
- B. Diameter < 0.6
- C. Both A. & B.
- D. Neither A. nor B.
Explanation
Packed distillation columns are generally used for relatively small columns, commonly limited to about 0.6 m diameter and 6 m height in this design guideline. Hence both stated limitations apply.
