There are many baffle type impingement separators. The efficiency of operation for entrainment is entirely a function of the contacting action inside the particular unit. There are no general performance equations which will predict performance for this type of unit therefore manufacturers performance data and recommendations should be used. A few of the many available units are shown in Figures 4-28 to 4-31. Many use the Chevron-style verdcal plates as shown in Figures 4-17A and 4-30.

One of the common impingement plate assemblies is of the Chevron zig-zag style of Figures 4-17A and 4-30. This style of impact separation device will tolerate higher gas velocides, high liquid loading, viscous liquids, reasonable solids, relatively low pressure drops. The collected...
