Tri-Pack Media
Tri-Pack Media designed tower packing media is uniquely engineered to provide maximum surface contact between exhaust gases and scrubbing liquid by facilitating continuous formation of droplets throughout the packed media bed. The distinctive shape of Tri-Pack Media provides uniform liquid distribution throughout the tower bed and minimizes wasteful liquid flow down the wall surface. It prevents clogging because there are no flat surfaces or minute openings to harbor particulate matter, and it eliminates puddling because there are no corners and valleys. The result of Tri-Pack Media is extraordinarily high scrubbing efficiency while minimizing the amount of media and packing depth required.
Tri-Pack Media design further prevents dry spots and compression interlock, two phenomena common to traditional packing media, both of which cause liquid and air channeling and decrease media efficiency.
Note: surface area alone does not guarantee performance. Excess surface area can impede gas/liquid contact and create higher pressure drops, thus increasing horsepower requirements and operating expense. Tri-Pack Media tower packing provides the optimum surface-to-open-area ratio for achieving best mass transfer efficiency and lowest operating costs. It is the industry standard for random dump tower packing media. Tri-Pack Media Tower Packing is available in three sizes in a variety of injection-molded resins including polypropylene, PVC, KYNAR®, Halar®, Teflon® and glass-filled polypropylene.
