Pressure drop per tray in the atmospheric distillation column is about ________________ psi?
Correct answer: B. 0.07 - 0.12
- A. 0.01 - 0.5
- B. 0.07 - 0.12
- C. 0.5 - 1.0
- D. 1 - 3
Explanation
A typical tray pressure drop in an atmospheric distillation column is roughly 0.07 to 0.12 psi per tray. Much larger values would impose an unnecessarily high column pressure gradient.
