Overall distillation column efficiency for most of the refinery columns can be given by (for μ = 0.07 - 1.4 cp and relative volatility < 4) (where η = overall column efficiency, % μ = molal average viscosity of feed at average column temperature and pressure, cp Δp = pressure drop per tray, psi)

Η = 24.6 (Δp/μ)
Η = 1.66 - 0.25 log μ
Η = 17 - 61.1 log μ
Η = 0.25 log μ - 1.67

Pick out the wrong statement about the design of seive plate column and the bubble cap column.

The downcomer design and the residence time in the downcomer is almost same for seive plate and bubble cap columns
Weir height in case of a bubble cap plate ranges from 50 to 150 mm and is higher than the seive plate
Weir length for a bubble cap plate is the same as that for the seive plate
Weir height for a bubble cap plate column is the same as that for a seive plate column
