The rectifying section in a distillation column is where the lighter distillate is being enriched and the heavier components removed. This is in contrast to the stripping section where the lighter components are being "stripped" out of the bottom product and the heavier components consequently concentrated.

If the rate of the distillation through a packed column is too rapidflooding occursWhat effect would flooding have on the distillation?

If the rate of the distillation through column is too rapid flooding occurs will effect on distillation rate causing low crude column flush zone vaporization that causes low internal reflux rate between GO and GO product and the light materials does not vaporize and it will effect on fractionation ability. Those effects on the specification of the distillation. So effective on crude temp. it will be dropping then crude hydraulic limitation occurred and making the problem worse. so in the top of column boiling film will cause,
