Hi,
Which is a more typical scheme for a distillation column temperature control? Top of column or bottom of column? What is the considerations that can be accounted in?
If i wanted to have to have a temperature control at the bottom of the distillation column, should I have the control valve installed at the inlet of the reboiler (steam line) or the outlet of the reboiler (condensate line)?
Which is the typical scheme?
If the control valve is at the condensate line, in terms of size, control valve is smaller, isn't that better?
I read that having a control valve at the condensate line will has a poorer dynamic response, can anyone explain this in details?
Thank you.
