Packing, structured

Structured packing mixers are similar to packed beds, but have the packing material designed, controlled, and engineered to provide the desired mixing with minimized pressure drop [88, 89]. The concept is similar to split and recombination, but the structures are smaller and the time split is considerably less. [Pg.142]

Packing with turbulizers, referred to as Turbo-pack, is made by thermo-pressing or stamping plates such that the packing surface is ribbed, which increases turbulence near the wall. This increased turbulence leads to better heat and mass transfer [Pg.231]


Foi structured packings, values correspond to crimp height. [Pg.173]

Refitting of a tray-type column is desired to increase loading, increase efficiency, and/or decrease pressure drop. Structured packing is pariicularly applicable in this case. [Pg.1346]

Liquid rates are very low and/or vapor rates are high, in which case structured packing may be particularly desirable. [Pg.1346]

For ordered, or structured, packings, pressure-drop estimation methods have been reviewed by Fair and Bravo [Chem. Eng. Progr, 86(1), 19 (1990)]. It is not common practice to use the packing factor approach for predicling pressure drop or flooding. For operation below the loading point, the model of Bravo et [Hydrocarbon... [Pg.1388]

Proc., 65(3), 45 (1986)] is preferred. To use this and alternate models, dimensional characteristics of structured packing must be defined. Figure 14-51 shows nomenclature and definitions of key dimensions. Not shown, but also important, is the angle the corrugations make with the horizontal (usu y 45 or 60°). Then the Rocha et al. predictive equation is ... [Pg.1388]

Sepn. Purif., 3, 19 (1989)] takes holdup into account and applies to random as well as structured packings. It is somewhat cumbersome to use and requires three constants for each packing type and size. Such constants have been evaluated, however, For a number of commonly used packings. A more recent pressure drop and holdup model, suitable for extension to the flood point, has been pubhshed by Rocha et al. [Jnd. Eng. Chem. Research, 35, 1660 (1996)]. This model takes into account variations in surface texturing of the different brands of packing. [Pg.1390]

Representative pressure drop data for random and structured packings are given in Figs. 14-52-14-54. [Pg.1390]

Efficiency data for a representative structured packing at two column diameters are shown in Fig. 14-74. The Max-Pak packing has a surface area of 246 m /m (7.5 ft /fE). The same test mixture (cyclo-hexane//i-heptane) and operating pressure was used for both tests. It would appear that column diameter does not have an influence in this range of values (0.43 to 1.2 m). [Pg.1400]

Structured packing efficiency is about 1.5 times that of plates or random packing. [Pg.1407]

At a parameter of 0.02, the structured packing has a 1.3-1.4 capacity advantage over random packing and plates. This advantage disappears as the parameter approaches 0.1. [Pg.1407]

Structured packing has about the same capacity as plates and random packings. [Pg.1407]

The efficiency advantage of structured packing over random packings and plates decreases from 1.5 to 1.2 as the parameter increases from 0.1 to 0.3... [Pg.1407]

The loss of capacity of structured packing is greatest in this range. [Pg.1407]

The random packing appears to have the highest capacity and efficiency, and structured packing the least capacity and efficiency. [Pg.1407]

Generalizations are not as easy for structured packings as for random packings. See the following subsection, Comparison to Trays, for study type structured packing data. [Pg.88]

Reference 13 is recommended for its large database of structured packing infonnation. One parameter for structured packing within the narrative of Reference 13 is that the minimum w etting rate is 0.1 to 0.2 gpm/ft compared to 0.5 to 2gpm/fT for random packings. [Pg.88]
