Distillation Column with Reboiler Kettle
Distillation Column with Reboiler Kettle
A Distillation Column with Reboiler Kettle is an advanced system designed to achieve efficient separation of liquid mixtures while maintaining consistent heating at the column base. The reboiler kettle provides a steady supply of vapor to the column, ensuring improved energy efficiency, stable operation, and enhanced product purity.
At Harsha Engineers, we manufacture reboiler-equipped distillation columns with robust designs, precise fabrication, and durable materials such as stainless steel and mild steel. The kettle reboiler allows for uniform heat distribution, reducing temperature fluctuations and improving overall column performance.
Column Material: Mild Steel (MS), Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316), or customized alloys
Reboiler Type: Kettle-type with shell & tube heat exchanger design
Heating Medium: Steam, hot oil, or other process heating fluids
Column Diameter & Height: Designed as per process requirements
Operating Pressure: Atmospheric to high-pressure operations
Features: Demister pads, trays or packing, reflux system, and insulation options
Capacity: Tailor-made to handle laboratory scale to large industrial capacities
The feed mixture enters the distillation column in this configuration, where differences in boiling points lead to separation. The liquid is heated to produce vapor in the reboiler kettle at the base of the column. This vapor ascends, passing through packing or trays, where repeated contact between liquid and vapor improves separation efficiency. In the reboiler, the heavier fractions remain as bottoms while the lighter fractions condense to form distillate at the top. Smooth operation, consistent results, and reduced energy loss are all guaranteed by this continuous circulation between the column and the reboiler.
