摘要:
A gas-liquid contact tower of the kind comprising an outer tower shell, a stack of superimposed, substantially flat, horizontal trays spaced vertically apart within the shell so that in use each can carry a thin film of liquid discharged within the tower shell. The horizontal trays are provided with a plurality of flow apertures distributed substantially uniformly over at least part of the surface of the trays. The apertures are suitable to permit in use the thin liquid film on the trays to flow downwardly therethrough from tray to tray and to permit gas to flow upwardly therethrough from tray to tray. The trays are arranged as a plurality of pre-assembled sub-assemblies, each sub-assembly comprising a plurality of tray portions assembled, prior to introduction into the tower shell, to form a sub-stack of vertically spaced apart, substantially superimposed tray portions. At least some of the sub-assemblies are arranged in a side-by-side relationship in the stack. Each sub-assembly comprises a respective spacer band positioned adjacent to the margin of the superimposed tray portions to define with the adjacent tray portions a chamber which is substantially sealed apart from the apertures in the tray portions.

The reservoir 1 contains in its lower part a purifying vessel 2 which contains a plate 9 having a bell means communicating with the reservoir and provided with an overflow pipe 12 through which liquid overflows into a bath having a constant level. When gas is drawn off from the top of the purifying vessel, liquid taken from the lower bath is vaporized in an exterior vaporizer 3 and the gas produced passes through the two baths in succession. In this way it is possible to obtain the gases having high purity devoid of particles of dust which are required for certain applications and in particular in the electronic component industry.

This invention presents an improved and less costly method for closing the ends of the tray and cap channels which make up trays such as specified in the reference patents. Construction of the bubble cap trays in accordance with this invention reduces to a minimum the number of parts needed to complete the assembly of the bubble cap tray and its installation in a tower.

In a column for contacting a liquid with a vapor and having a plurality of vertically spaced apart vapor-liquid contacting trays therein, at least a portion of such trays are constructed such that a wall member is connected to the inlet surface of a contact tray and a perforated plate member is connected to such wall member in a manner to extend laterally inwardly above a part of the tray. The liquid flow path is directed over the wall member and across the perforated plate member to establish initial frothing of fluid and vapor prior to the distribution of the liquid flow over the remaining surface of the contact tray.
