Questions:
Why do we use plastic random
packing?
Answers: Plastic random packing has
been used successfully as an inexpensive and efficient ways to
increase tower capacity and efficiency. There are numerous process
advantages that can be realized by using plastic random column
packing in many applications. The predominant reasons for using
column packing is to reduce pressure drop throughout the column, to
increase capacity compared to trays at the same efficiency, and to
reduce the liquid holdup in the column. Plastic random column
packings are not as bulk as ceramic equivalents and therefore offer
higher capacity and lower pressure drop.
Plastic random column packings are used in corrosive applications
with low to moderate operating temperature and can offer economic
advantage over metal material. Where temperature permits, plastic
random column packing performs better than ceramic random column
packing and are often cheaper than metal random column packing,
particularly when special metal and alloy are required.
Consequently, plastic random column packing are frequently used in
absorption, scrubbing, stripping and heat transfer service.
Questions: What advantages do plastic random packing have?
Answers:
High performance plastic
random packing provides:
ü
Lowest Pressure Drop and Highest Capacity
ü
Low pressure drop and high capacity allows smaller column diameter
and blower sizes in new installations.
ü
Low pressure drop minimizes process back-pressure from scrubbers.
ü
Low pressure drop substantially reduces energy consumption.
High Efficiency and Capacity
•Exceptional
efficiency at low liquid rates improves separation performance and
allows reduction in column height in new installations.
•High
capacity for high liquid rates allows reduction in column diameter
in new installations.
