46 Foam Fractionation: Principles and Process Design
It should be noted that, when foam fractionators are run as enrichers, it
is usual to run with a very dry foam to promote enrichment, as will be dis-
cussed in Chapters 6 and 7. Certainly, a liquid fraction of 13.7%, as is devel-
oped in Figure3.4, would be considered very wet for an enricher, although
such liquid fractions may be seen in strippers.
