Well-engineered mesh demister pads are critical to the cost-effective operation of every sulfuric acid plant. Filters mesh pads are designed and manufactured to meet sulfuric acid drying tower (DT) mist elimination requirements.
Drying towers remove moisture and solid particulate through a packed bed. Large sulfuric acid droplets are created mechani-cally by the sheer force of the gas flowing counter-currently to the sulfuric acid. We understand the importance of mist removal to prevent downstream corrosion of expensive equipment such as blowers,compressors, heat exchangers.
Mesh Demister Pads Benefits
- High Droplet Removal Efficiency
- Low Pressure Drop
- Simple to Install
- Short Leads Times
- Cost Effective
- Tailored Solution
Mesh demister pads are made of layered knitted mesh, which is individually crimped to the desired height to maintain density and specific surface area. The mesh arrangement has a high open area for gas flow to reduce pressure drop and fine wire surface area to increase droplet collection efficiency. Mist droplets collide on wire surfaces (impaction and interception collection mechanisms), and/or coalesce together to form larger droplets, which then drain to the bottom of the pad through the force of gravity.
