Small dia distillation column can be a _________________________?

Correct answer: B. Packed column

  • A. Sieve tray
  • B. Packed column
  • C. Bubble cap
  • D. Any of these

Explanation

Small-diameter distillation columns are commonly packed because packing is easier to install and gives lower cost and pressure drop at small scale. Tray columns, especially bubble-cap and sieve-tray designs, become difficult to fabricate and operate efficiently at very small diameters.
