ABSTRACT:
Precision molded plastic cellular packing elements (10 and 40) of polygonal and curvilinear spriral shape are provided for mass transfer and effluent treatment apparatus. Each spiral element (10 and 40) has more than one convolution (16 and 46), a maximum transverse width (W) significantly greater than its axial height (H) whereby it has a greater tendency to orient itself horizontally and its relatively shorter wall surfaces substantially vertical, angularly spaced ribs (24-26) (52-54) which extend from the axis (x) and interconnect the convolutions; and wherein adjacent wall portions of the ribs and of the spiral convolutions around open end cells of the element are either in alignment or inclined in one direction, or oppositely inclined relative to one another whereby the element may be provided with either or a combination of straight, tapered or oppositely tapered cells.
