Saiptech's Sieve Trays
Sieve trays became a dominate tower internal for mass transfer columns in the 1950's owing to their simple shape and ease of manufacture. This made sieve trays a popular device for extensive research and as a result, a considerable amount of experience has been gained for tray design and its application. Sieve trays are flat perforated plates in which vapour is forced through the holes into the cross flowing liquid. Vapour flow prevents liquid from leaking (weeping) through the holes. At low vapour velocities, liquid weeping through the holes occurs, which bypasses a portion of the tray active area and reduces efficiency, giving sieve trays relatively low turndown (approx. 2-2.5:1).
Comparison of Common Conventional Tray | ||||
TRAY TYPE | BUBBLE CAP | DUALFLOW | SIEVE | VALVE |
Capacity | Moderate | Very High | High | High to very high |
Pressure Drop | High | Low to Moderate | Low to Moderate | Moderate.Older designs were somewhat higher.Recent designs same as sieve trays. |
Efficiency | Moderate (0.6 - 0.8) | Lower compared to others (0.5 - 0.7) | High (0.7 - 0.9) | High (0.7 - 0.9) |
Turndown | Very high Can handle very Can handle very low liquid rates | Low. Not suitable for suitable for varying loads | Approx. 2:1. Unsuitable for Unsuitable for varying loads operation | Approx. 3-5:1 Higher turndown Higher turndown designs can be provided on request. |
Maintenance | Relatively high | Low | Low | Low to moderate |
Fouling Tendency | High. Tends to accummulate solid particles | Extremely low. Best choice for Severe fouling | Low | Low to moderate |
Main Application | Very low flow conditions where leakage needs to be minimized | Capacity revamps where efficiensy and turndown not critical high fouling and corrosive servies | Most columns where trundown not important | Most Columns services where turndown important |
Cost | High -approx 2~3 times that for sieve trays | Low | Low | Marginally higher than sieve trays |
