ABSTRACT:
This invention is a packing for use in a packed tower. The packing has four axes and six webs and is symmetrical around each axes. The packing is of a geometrical configuration that with one of the axes pointing downwardly and the other three axes pointing upwardly and above the downwardly pointing axes the fluid can flow towards the center of the packing into an opening at its center. In the configuration with the three axes pointing downwardly and the one axis pointing upwardly the fluid is directed away from the center of the packing and flows off of the webs. With this geometrical configuration the flow of the fluid is evenly distributed throughout the packed bed.
