The choice between these two for a given mass transfer operation is based on a detail cost analysis.
However, The decision can be made on the
basis of a qualitative analysis of relative advantages and disadvantages.

• As our system is non foaming.• Height of the column is large.• Temperature is high, i.e.
172.3oC• Diameter is greater than 0.67m

• Cross-flow contactors are the most common type of plate contactors.
• In a cross-flow plate the liquid flows across the plate and the vapour up through the plate.
• The liquid move from plate to plate via down comer.
• A certain level of liquid is maintained on the plates by weir.

Three principal types of cross flow trays are used classified according to the method used to contact the vapour and liquid.
• Sieve Plates (Perforated Plate)• Bubble Cap Plates• Valve plates (floating cap

I’ve selected the Sieve Plates because;
• Pressure drop is lowest. • Their fundamentals are well
established.• Sieve plates are the cheapest.• They are lighter in weight.• Maintenance cost is reduced
due to the ease of cleaning
