Structured packings
Structured packings are used in processes with low liquid load, high gas flow and low pressure drop requirements.
RVT Process Equipment offer a wide range of both innovative and conventional structured packings in various metals or thermoplastic materials. Structured packings are available with conventional geometry (N) or high performance geometry (S, SP).
Standard Packing (N-type)
Structured packings used in applications with low liquid loads, high gas flows or where there is a requirement for low pressure drop.
High Performance Packing (S, SP-type)
Structured packing with lower pressure drop and reduced risk of flooding compared to the Standard Packing.
Hiflow® PLUS Packing
Structured packing combining the advantages of random packings and conventional structured packings. Suitable for processes requiring high capacity at high liquid loads.
Grid Packing
Structured packing combining the large surface area of conventional packings with a robust grid structure. Designed for use in processes with high levels of fouling, erosion, coking and a large amount of solids.
Choose the right column internals for an optimised process
To maximise process efficiency in a column it is important to understand how various parameters affect choice of equipment and type of solution.
- Which are the underlying principles of mass and heat transfer?Read the full answer
Mass transfer Many industrial processes generate mass transfer of some sort, i.e. moving mass from one part of the process to another. This may be to separate different substances from each other, change the composition of a mixture, or concentrate a solution. Mass transfer can take place in a number of ...
- How does flue gas condensation work? Key process parameters?Read the full answer
Flue gas condensation is a process commonly used in the chemical industry and is an example of heat transfer. Flue gas condensation is used to recover and reuse heat produced during a process.
- How does flue gas cleaning work? Key process parameters?Read the full answer
Flue gas cleaning is a mass transfer process with an objective to remove unwanted or hazardous substances from the process. Flue gas cleaning is used in a variety of industries and applications.
- How does stripping work? Key process parameters?Read the full answer
Stripping is a mass transfer process where one or more substances are removed from a liquid. One of our areas of expertise in mass and heat transfer is the removal of ammonium or other volatile substances and contaminants in process or waste water.
