How a Dividing Wall Column Maximizes LPG Recovery - GT-LPG MAX℠
21 April 2021

GT-LPG MAX℠ was developed by Sulzer GTC Technology using dividing wall column (DWC) technology to optimize overall operation and enhance C3+ recovery. A DWC can separate a multi-component feed into three or more streams within a single column. The deethanizer and depropanizer columns in a traditional LPG recovery system are replaced with one column using a dividing wall to achieve as high or higher C3+ recovery as a conventional design. As a result, both capital investment and operating costs for grassroots and revamped applications are reduce.
