Presenter
Henry Kister, Senior Fellow, Director of Fractionation Technology, Fluor

Description
Proper design of reboiling systems involves coordinating aspects both outside and inside the tower. Many fractionator problems can be attributed to either improper bottom section design or poor reboiler circuit layout; taken together, they are thought to be the second-most common cause of tower problems. This webinar focuses on both of these aspects to achieve proper operation of the overall reboiler system.
