Plated / Boka column run

Post by frunobulax »

A friend and I made a neutral run yesterday. We put a 3'' Boka, with a 50" packed section on top of 4- 4" plates. All I can say is WOW.
We put about 4400 watts in and it was putting out 1.5 gallons an hour at Azero with a trickle of cooling water.
Was it overkill? Maybe a bit, but it was fun as hell. The ladder is there for two reasons, to reach the valve and to lash the column to.

You guys had fun...but what's not so funny again, is the fact that my eyes must see a plastic funnel in the collection jar... :wtf:
Please tell me you just did a cleaning run and don't plan to keep the product...

That was just for the small jars for Fores and heads while we were getting ready for the rest of the run. There was plenty of 'em
