Demister pads

Vapor flowing through a packed bed at typical loading rates below the flood point, will shear liquid from the surface of the packing and carry it out of the packed bed as entrainment. In such cases a liquid entrainment device should be fitted at the top of the column to remove entrained liquid droplets from the vapor stream before it exits the vessel.

Demister pads, alias knitted wire mesh pads, provide effective mist elimination compatible with normal packed column operation. For high gas velocities or low pressure drop requirements, we also supply vane type demisters. The pressure drop of the demister pad or the knitted wire mesh droplet separator is very low due to the large free volumes, even at higher velocities.

MTE has the knowledge to design, debottleneck and optimize vapor liquid seperators also called flash drums with a combination of knock-out equipment like baffles, half open feed pipes or vane inlet devices in combination with demister pads for more efficient removal of droplets.
With 40+ certified and skilled installation colleagues, we are ready to support you in the installation process.
