FLEXIFIBER® Mist Eliminators consist of a packed fiberbed
between either of two concentric screens or two parallel
screens. Depending upon design parameters, these mist eliminators
collect up to 99.95% or greater of all submicron liquid
particles.
FLEXIFIBER mist eliminators are custom-designed and
fabricated with cages made from a wide variety of metal
alloys, thermal-set
plastics or FRP. The packed fiberbeds are made up of special
glass, ceramic, carbon, polypropylene, PTFE or polyester
fiber.
This style of mist eliminator has proven ideal for use
in sulfuric, nitric and thermal phosphoric acid plants;
chlorine and other chemical plants; pulp mills; textile
mills; asphalt saturators; food processing operations;
chrome plating processes; turbine lube oil tank vents;
and plastic forming operations.
Koch-Otto York offers three types of FLEXIFIBER mist
eliminators that are based on the
type of mechanism for separation:
|
|
FLEXIFIBER
Type BD element (Brownian Diffusion)
is designed
for submicron liquid or soluble solid particles.
|
|
|
FLEXIFIBER
Type IC element (Impaction Cylinder)
is designed
to economically collect particles in the 1 to
3 micron range.
|
|
|
FLEXIFIBER
Type IP element (Impaction Panel)
is most
commonly used in sulphur acid plants. |
