WOVEN WIRE PACKINGS

Abstract

A promising modification to the original KnitMesh Multifil packing was developed and tested. In this modification the original spirally-wound mesh arrangement was replaced by a series of parallel, vertical layers of mesh. By this arrangement the central region of high density, which in the original KnitMesh is thought to cause the severe liquid maldistribution and poor distillation performance, is removed. At the same time the vertical layers of mesh, which were shown to be desirable for good mass-transfer, are retained.
