Ceramic Intalox Saddles
Superior gas-liquid distribution for high-efficiency towers.
Designed with a unique "saddle" shape, these provide an advancement over rings by significantly reducing the tendency of the packing to "nest" or overlap, which improves the flow of gas and liquid.
Key Features
- High Voidage & Surface Area: The open shape provides a high void fraction and a larger effective surface area, leading to higher mass transfer efficiency.
- Low Pressure Drop: The non-nesting geometry allows gas to flow with less resistance, reducing energy costs for blowers and compressors.
- Excellent Liquid Distribution: The shape promotes the continuous renewal of the liquid film, preventing channeling and ensuring uniform wetting of the packing.
- Uniform Bed Porosity: Ensures consistent performance across the entire diameter of the tower.
Application Areas
- High-efficiency absorption, stripping, and sulphuric acid plant drying towers.
