Table 2.2
2: Impact of Water Draw-Off on Stabiliser Performance
It can be observed from the above table,, that if the water is not sufficiently
drawn out of column, the stabiliser performance is affected or reflected in fofol-
lowing parameters.
Stabiliser top temperature will rise as this is the only way the water can get
out of the system.
system
It should be noted that the above observations are made
made under steady state
conditions. In reality, when the free water accumulates within the column, the
initial observation will be increased reboiler duty, due to increased liquid and
vapour traffic within the column. However as the water has not removed, an
abrupt raise in overhead temperature to boilout the water in vapour phase is

plant operation. Hence, continuous or regular water draw off is recommended
based on the column performance.
