What Materials Are Used in the Construction of Process Towers & Columns, and Are They Suitable for Our Fluids and Corrosion Environment?
Selecting the wrong material of construction for your process tower or column can result in accelerated corrosion, frequent shutdowns, contamination, and complete structural failure. The stakes are high—especially in corrosive chemical environments involving acids, chlorides, or elevated temperatures. Unfortunately, many engineers rely on default materials like carbon steel or 316L stainless steel without considering long-term […]
What Are the Key Specifications When Purchasing Process Towers & Columns?
In industrial settings such as oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing, and chemical manufacturing, process towers and columns play a critical role in separation and purification operations. However, purchasing these components without clearly understanding the key specifications can result in costly inefficiencies, safety risks, or premature equipment failure. The complexity of process conditions—such as high pressures, […]
