Gas distributor for ultra-large air blow-out bromine extraction plant

Abstract

The initial distribution of gas and liquid is one of the key factors that determine the operation efficiency of packed towers. The development of a gas distributor for ultra-large air blow-out bromine extraction plant can improve operation efficiency, save energy and reduce consumption. In order to develop the gas distributor for ultra-large air blow-out bromine extraction plant, the guidelines for evaluating gas distributors are clarified in this paper, and six kinds of commonly gas distributor are compared in detail. Considering gas distribution inhomogeneity, liquid foam entrainment rates and distributor pressure drop, the double tangential circulation type gas distributor is the first choice in the ultra-large air blow-out method bromine extraction plant.
