FP - Structured Packing
The FP-Structured Packing is a result of years of experience and development in the field of thermal fractionation using packings for mass transfer. This is a universal packing type suitable for a wide variety of applications and provides lower pressure drop per theoretical stage and increased capacity compared to trays and conventional random packing.
Key Characteristics
- Improved product purities and product yields
- Reduced reflux rations
- Pressure drop per theoretical stage of 0.3 – 1 mbar
- Maximum liquid load up to more than 200 m3/m2h
- Increased throughput
- High separation performance close to capacity limits
Applications
- Vacuum to moderate pressure
- Petrochemical columns
- High pressure for selected applications
- Refinery Columns
- Chemical Industry
- Natural gas drying with glycols
