Sieve Trays have dominated the tray column design for years. They have their advantages such as, minimal vapor pressure drop and inexpensiveness, and their disadvantages include, liquid weeping and lower operating range. Find out more about sieve trays in AIChE’s Chemical Engineering for Non-Engineers course, aiche.org/ela110 or Essentials of Chemical Engineering for Operators at aiche.org/ela117.
