Vane Type Collector (AMB-VC)

Vane Type Collector for high vapor load towers, minimizing pressure drop and entrainment for efficient liquid collection.

A vane collector tray is essential in towers handling high vapor loads and low liquid loads, streamlining the process by directly feeding liquid to the annulus for thorough mixing. Notably, this tray boasts minimal pressure drop and offers open areas ranging from 40% to 75%. It effectively mitigates entrainment, even under high vapor rates, a common challenge with traditional gas risers. Widely adopted across industries such as chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, metallurgy, and automotive, vane collector trays play a crucial role in optimizing operational efficiency.

FAQs

A Vane Type Collector is a device used to improve the separation efficiency within process columns, such as distillation or absorption columns. It typically serves to coalesce and separate liquid droplets from vapor streams.

In a process column, a Vane Type Collector directs the vapor stream through a series of angled vanes. The design forces the vapor to change direction multiple times, which causes liquid droplets to coalesce and separate from the vapor due to inertia and gravitational forces. The collected liquid then drains down the column.

Enhancing the separation of components by removing entrained liquids from vapor streams.

  • Increased Efficiency: Improved separation of liquid and vapor phases, leading to higher purity of the final products.
  • Reduced Entrapment: Minimizes liquid carryover, which can negatively impact downstream equipment and processes.
  • Lower Pressure Drop: Generally offers a lower pressure drop compared to other separation devices like mesh pads.
  • Compact Design: Can be integrated into existing column internals with minimal modifications.

Vane Type Collectors are usually made from corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel, Hastelloy, or other alloys suitable for the process conditions. The choice of material depends on factors like chemical compatibility, temperature, and pressure within the column.
