Good Day,
I am a maintenance engineer in a oil refinery.
We are currently repairing the fractionator column on one of the crude distillation units.
The column had undergone a majot disruption in service and many of the trays were bent/distorted and partially collapsed.
We are attempting to straighten the trays by heating and using hand tools. the trays however cannot be straightened properly and are leaking heavily and cannot pass the leak test.
Any recommendations for straightening?
