Valves for cross-flow trays are typically chosen based on vapor handling capacity, turndown, pressure drop and fouling resistance. A large variety of valves, including valves developed recently, are available. In this presentation the performance of a number of valves will be compared and conclusions will be drawn on the range of applicability of different valves.
