Reflux Drum

Compared to the one with the same volume, the vertical reflux drum is better in gas-liquid separation, especially when it is used to remove oil and water.

Design Principle
The main way to decrease the reflux water content, is to extend the time that water and oil may stay in the drum. According to the Stokes Law, the bigger diameter the water drop has and the faster the settling velocity will be, when the viscosity of the dispersion medium reaches a certain value. Enough dwell time for the oil and water inside the drum should be ensured, for making the small water-drops to be condensed into the big ones which will be speedily settled. Meantime, measures related to the drum internal structure also should be taken, for the sake of maintaining the good oil and water removal effect.

Advantages
1. Our reflux drum allows the rational gradient distribution of the temperature inside the fractionation column. It comes with reliable operation parameters.
2. It is not prone to corrosion, and the maintenance cost will be significantly lowered.
3. This device is energy-efficient. Every year, it can save 120,000m3 fuel gas.
