In clean glycol/gas service wire mesh pads give excellent
performance in most applications, with vane packs used
for higher capacity and swirl tubes for highest capacity
and pressure. Special high efficiency designs offer low
losses to 0.05 USG/MMSCF (0.007 Litres/M Sm3) or less and
droplet capture to below 5 microns.
Design Guides
The chart below illustrates the relative gas capacity of our range of trays and structured packings through a TEG
contactor column, from the high capacity swirl tube design through to conventional bubble caps. To determine the
number of trays or packed height, please refer to HAT.
The basis of this comparison is saturated natural gas of 20 MW at 30 oC, using 99.5% wt Triethylene Glycol.
