A tray for a mass-transfer column permits contact between a liquid phase and a gas phase. The tray may comprise a tray feed via which the tray is charged with the liquid phase, a tray drain via which the liquid phase drains from the tray, and first guide means for guiding the liquid phase where the first guide means forms a first course path along which the liquid phase flows from the tray feed to the tray drain, enabling contact with the gas phase. A second guide means may form a second course path overlapping with the first course path, which leads from an inlet to an outlet. The first guide means may have at least two partial concentric paths. Temperature-control fluid may flow along the second course path in at least one of the at least two partial paths opposite the flow direction of the liquid phase.
