Fractional Distillation Unit On GLR

Glass Lined Reactors are used instead of glass reactors specially when scale of operation is large and relatively high pressure steam is to be used as heating media. Quite often assemblies like Simple Distillation Unit, Reaction Distillation Unit, Fractional Distillation Unit etc. are installed above glass lined reactors. The basic features of these assemblies remain the same but glass shell and tube heat exchanger is preferred due to large scale of operation. A typical fractional distillation unit type assembly over GLR is shown in figure.

Reaction Distillation Unit

This unit is used for carrying out reactions under stirred condition and with provision for simple reflux distillation. The reaction vessel is mounted in a heating bath and fitted with addition vessel, motor-driven stirrer and provision for condensation with refluxing. The product is sub-cooled and collected in a receiver. The units are available in vessel sizes of 20, 50, 100 & 200L and is suitable for operation under atmospheric pressure and full vaccum.

Fractional Distillation Assembly

This is essentially a compact batch-type fractional distillation unit in which the reboiler consists of a vessel mounted in a heating bath and with a packed column above. The vapours from top is condensed and can be refluxed as per requirement.

The top product is sub-cooled and collected in receivers.The bottom product is finally drained from the reboiler through a drain valve.

The units are available in vessel sizes of 20,50,100 & 200L and is suitable for operation under atmospheric pressure and full vaccum.

Glass Distillation Assembly On GLR

The overall heat transfer co-efficient of Borosilicate glass equipment compare favorably with many alternative materials because of its smooth surface which improve the film coefficient and reduce the tendency of fouling. Heat exchangers are available in two basic types: Coil Type and Shell & Tube Type. Shell & Tube heat exchangers offer large surface area in combination with efficient heat transfer and compactness. These are widely used in industries for various duties like cooling, heating, condensation, evaporation etc.

Salient Features :

1.Universal corrosion resistance an excellent alternative to expensive MOCs like graphite, hastelloy, copper titanium, tantalum and other exotic metals.

2. Excellent heat transfer as fouling does not occur on smooth glass surfaces.

3. Flexibility of installation vertical/horizontal.

4. Easy replacement of tubes for repair and cleaning.

5. Available in wide range of HTAs.

6. Ease of installation due to light weight.

7. Economical.

8. Suitable for applications where large HTAs are required in limited space.

Advantages Over Conventional Coil Type Heat Exchangers :

1. The overall heat transfer coefficient in shell and tube heat exchanger is about 3 times higher than in coil type heat exchanger.

2. The pressure drop in shell and tube heat exchanger is minimal compared to 2-3 kg/cm2 in coil side of coil type heat exchanger.

3. For requirement of higher heat transfer areas shell and tube heat exchanger is the only alternative.

Construction Features :

The glass tubes are sealed individually into PTFE tube sheet with special PTFE sockets and packing. This unique ferrule type sealing arrangement permits easy replacement and cleaning of tubes. Baffles on shell side ensure improved heat transfer by increased turbulance. Further details of construction an be seen in the diagram.

Range Of Applications :

Permissible temperature range for both shell & tube sides - 40° C to 150° C.
Maximum permissible temperature difference between shell & tube sides - 120° C. All sizes & models are suitable for full vacuum on both side.

Glass Distillation Column

In many operations like reaction, extraction and absorption, the transparency of glass is a particular advantage. For such processes a range of column components are available in Boro silicate glass which offers many advantages like :

Insert to almost all chemicals hence no risk of contamination.
Almost universal resistance to corrosion.
Smooth surface permits easy cleaning and prevents fouling.
Transparency allows visual monitoring of the process, flow patterns, color changes etc.

Glass Stirring Assembly

Glass Reactor are ideally used for wide applications in laboratory, pilot plant and for small-scale production. They reduce the need for invesments in permanent installations & also reduce the pressure & tempreture losses resulting from pipeline installation.
