Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of petrochemical technology, and in particular to a tower tray with a reinforced structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the petrochemical industry, plate columns are used to separate and purify mixtures. Plate columns consist of multiple layers of trays, each maintaining a certain depth of liquid layer. Gas is dispersed into the liquid layer through the trays, facilitating interphase mass transfer. This structure significantly increases the contact area between gas and liquid, thereby improving mass transfer efficiency.
[0003] When liquid flows on a tray, the tray is subjected to stress in the middle, which causes deformation, affecting gas-liquid flow and mass transfer efficiency. Therefore, a tray with a reinforced structure is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
