How to Surpass Conventional and High Capacity Structured Packings with Raschig Super-pak
نویسندگان
چکیده
Raschig Super-Pak is a novel development in structured packing product technology that is fundamentally different to the well known corrugated perforated or nonperforated, textured sheet metal structured packings. It comprises of a systematic sequence of smooth sinusoidal waves above and below the plain of the metal sheet. Total reflux distillation tests with Raschig Super-Pak 300 were conducted at the Separations Research Program, University of Texas at Austin. Results in terms of useful capacity, mass transfer efficiency, pressure drop and pressure drop per theoretical stage are presented. Comparisons with the standard and high capacity structured packings tested under identical conditions [1] will be shown.

Comparison of the Effective Surface Area of Some Highly Effective Random Packings Third and Forth Generation
The effective surface area ae of 14 variants of three highly effective types of packings (IMTP, Raschig Super-Ring (RSR) and Ralu-Flow) made of stainless steel or plastic is investigated as a function of the liquid superficial velocity. The packing size varied from 20 to 70 mm, and the liquid superficial velocity from 5 and 200 m/(mh). The comparison of the obtained data shows the following: Am...
متن کاملCFD Simulation of Dry and Wet Pressure Drops and Flow Pattern in Catalytic Structured Packings
Type of packings and characteristics of their geometry can affect the flow behavior in the reactive distillation columns. KATAPAK SP is one the newest modular catalytic structured packings (MCSP) that has been used in the reactive distillation columns, recently. However, there is not any study on the hydrodynamics of this packing by using computational fluid dynamics. In the present work, a 3D ...
متن کاملFluid Separation Modelling in the Columns Equipped with Structured Packings using the Hydrodynamic Analogy
A new modelling approach to the description of mass and heat transfer in columns equipped with structured packings is developed based on rigorous equations of continuum mechanics. This approach rests on the analogy between the flow patterns in real structured packings and film flow. The physical model is based on a simplified geometrical representation of the packing. It consists of a bundle of...
متن کاملOxygen reduction reaction on Pt/C at the presence of super paramagnetic of Fe3O4 nanoparticles for PEMFCs
In this paper the role of super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPI) on Platinum nanoclusters on activated carbon (Pt/C) for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction was considered. Four composites of Pt/C and super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared with the same total composites weight and different loading of Pt/C (1.2, 0.6, 0.4 and 0.3 mg ). The composite attached ...
متن کاملNew family of high-resolution ion exchangers for protein and nucleic acid purifications from laboratory to process scales.
A new family of polymer-based ion exchangers was tested for the purification of acidic and basic proteins on both the analytical and preparative scales. Protein-Pak HR series packings are available as strong cation (SP) and weak anion (DEAE) exchangers, allowing the development of a purification method regardless of the isoelectric point of protein. Three particle sizes, 8, 15 and 40 microns, a...
