Increasing column capacity by 60%
Customer request:
The K-212 column in the section for recovering MTBE from the reaction mixture in butadiene production from pyrolysis-derived butane–butylene fraction requires revamping.Spliteks solution:
- Process flow analysis, calculations and coordination of solutions with the customer
- Engineering based on a “tray-for-tray” replacement
- Manufacturing at the facility in Serpukhov
- Delivery of the batch to the customer’s site
- Installation supervision at the customer’s site and advice during commissioning
Result
Increasing column capacity by 60% by replacing obsolete, inefficient internals with modern ones while ensuring the required product quality.
