Columns packed with FLEXIPAC® structured packing have resulted in:
- Improved product yields
- Improved product purities
- Reduced reflux ratios
- Increased throughput
- Lower pressure drop
- Reduced liquid holdup
- Increased heat transfer
FLEXIPAC packing is available in a variety of corrugation crimp sizes, each at two inclination angles.
"Y" designated packings
- 45 degree nominal inclination angle from horizontal
- Most widely used
"X" designated packings
- 60 degree nominal inclintation angle from horizontal
- Used where high capacity and low pressure drop are required
- Provide lower pressure drop per theoretical stage for the same surface area
