The Basic Difference Between Random And Structured Tower Packing
Tower internals are a key player in the success of the overall operation. Tower packing is a mass of inert, solid shapes that are used for various applications in distillation, absorption columns, chemical reactors and scrubber systems. The packing allows for a greater surface area with a low bulk density for gas and liquid to make contact, which can also allow for contact in different phases. ...

Optimization of a Kraft Pulp Mill Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) Scrubber - With Q-PAC Repack Power Costs are Reduced by Over $80,000 per Year and Emissions are Non-Detectable
An existing ClO2 (chlorine dioxide) scrubber tower at a pulp mill was repacked during a planned maintenance shut down. As the result of replacing 3" Kynar and 2" CPVC Norton Super Interlox saddles with Q-PAC from Lantec Products, the scrubber tower is now operating at a greatly reduced pressure drop compared to when the tower was packed with saddles. The reduced pressure drop has ...
