(130c) C2 Splitter Debottlenecking and Operation

C2 Splitters are the "Money Towers" of the ethylene plant.  With recent interest in lower price ethane for cracking in ethylene plants in North America, there is heightened interest in getting as much capacity out of these "Money Towers" as possible.  Two recent revamps of C2 Splitters will be presented along with operating data showing the capacity and performance of the new High Capacity trays employed.
