In chemical processing, distillation columns such as de-lightening columns are vital for separating light components from products. These columns often feature configurations with total reflux, where top light components exit as non-condensable gases and condensed liquid is fully returned. Examples include stabilizing columns, stripping towers, desorption towers, and de-lightening columns. This article focuses on de-lightening
