RE: distillation trays
Depending on what the column is doing, you may need as much a 3X as many trays as you've estimated. Start by googling tray efficiency and then keep going. Read papers from the Distillation Group - there's a ton of info out there. Check GPSA, call a vendor, even better, try modelling the same tower to check actual efficiency.

RE: distillation trays
For designing/revamping distillation columns, one needs to go to proper address: tray/packing vendors, such as Sulzer, Koch-Glitsch, ACS, etc.
