Mining | Column arranged to separate various fractions of petroleum by single distillation. Source: European Union. (references) |
Public Administration | An apparatus in which fractionation is carried out. It consists of a vertical cylindrical metal vessel, containing equipment for the proper contacting of flashed liquid and vapour. Heat is often supplied at the bottom of the column in a reboiler, whereas heat is withdrawn at the top in a condenser. Heat can also be supplied by or withdrawn at intermediate heights of the column, if beneficial for the process(interheaters or intercoolers). The oil to be fractionated is fed into the column in one or more predetermined locations along the height of the column. The contacting equipment is formed by fractionating trays in the oil and chemical industry in general, while for special applications packing material is used. (1). Source: European Union.
