A tray tower uses trays to provide the surface area needed for liquid and vapor contact for mass transfer to take place. A lean liquid enters the top tray, exiting the upper false downcomer, and untreated gas is rising through a series of stacked trays. As the liquid contacts the vapor, it begins to react.
As the trays fill up, a liquid seal is formed on the downcomers, forcing the vapor to go through the tray active panels. The liquid is traveling across the bubble points and exiting down the downcomers on the trays. The green bubbling represents treated vapor rising from the trays.
Tray towers like these are used for many distillation processes for contacting vapor and gases to create many specialty liquids and gas products within both the chemical and the oil and gas process industries.
