ABSTRACT:
A liquid-gas contacting apparatus for distillation, gas absorption and related mass transfer operations. The apparatus comprises a series of vertically spaced, horizontal sheets having openings which are laterally offset from each other. The space between the sheets is partly or entirely filled with mesh packing material, such as knitted wire mesh, steel wool, hair-like metallic or fibrous packing material, such as fiberglass and the like. Such packing material may be in the form of undulating mats. Various shapes of chimneys may surround the openings and extend either upwardly, downwardly or both. In some instances the chimneys themselves may be of such packing material and may be filled with mats of such packing material. Greatly enhanced mass transfer efficiency is obtained.
