Abstract

A distillation column 2 , suitable for the cryogenic distillation of air or the thermal distillation of hydrocarbon gas, is supported within an insulation structure 4 from interior corners of said structure. This apparatus and method of support avoid placing significant stresses on the column during transportation. The apparatus is particularly suitable for columns having a diameter of at least 3.5 m (11 ft).
