Non-metallic Structured Packing
For Corrosive Applications
This packing forms a thin liquid layer on a ceramic surface, facilitating low-pressure mixing of liquid and vapor. It highlights its mass transfer efficiency, superior corrosion and temperature resistance compared to metal packings, and its ability to encourage wetting, minimize liquid hold-up, and reduce overheating, polymerization, and coking. Specific applications listed include deaerators, flue gas coolers, HCL absorbers, and CL2/SIO2 scrubbers.
Excellent Features
- Excellent surface wetting ability, larger mass transfer area, and higher separation efficiency owing to the special surface structure;
- High compressive strength;
- Little magnifying effect;
- More fields/conditions to be applicable
| S-Cube Structured Packing | Surface Area (SQ.M./CU.m.) | F-Factor | No. of Theoretical Stages Per Meter HL(NTSM) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 250Y | 250 | 2.5 | 2.5 |
| 350Y | 350 | 2 | 3.5 |
| 500Y | 500 | 1.6 | 4.5 |
Applications
- Distillations and Absorption of strong corrosive mixtures
- Distillation of halogenated organic components
S-CUBE plastic structured packing have the high mass transfer efficiency as metal packings, more resistant to corrosion and low temperature.
PTFE/PP Structured Packing is used for corrosive applications. It consists of a thin corrugated sheet arranged to create a large surface area.
PTFE/PP structured packing is used as a replacement for the cerams saddle. It has high durability and more stages.
- It is a completely chemically inert material
- It is strong but light in weight
- It gives rise to the adequate area for both Gas & Liquid
- Streams without excessive liquid hold up and less pressure drop
- It provides good contact between liquid and gas
- It is washable and reusable It is unbreakable too
- It is energy conserving
Enhanced Features
- High transfer unit count for each meter with a reduced HTU, varying based on the system.
- Minimal pressure reduction for every meter of packed height.
- Cost-effective load range reaching up to an F factor of 3 Pa.
Optimal Operating Temperatures
- Roughly 80-100°C for polypropylene.
- Approximately 120-150°C for PTFE.
Application Areas
- HCI absorbers
- SO2 absorbers
- Flue gas cleaning columns
- Sea water deaerators
