MellapakPlus
For improved capacity
MellapakPlus is a capacity enhanced structured packing.
Separation Efficiency
It combines all advantages of the metal sheet packing Mellapak with new
geometrical features.
Features of MellapakPlus
At the lower and upper end of each
packing element, the orientation
of the corrugation gradually
approaches the vertical axis.
Advantages of this geometrical
modification:
The vapor flow smoothly changes
direction at the interface between
two packing elements
0699 25224
Both factors reduce the pressure drop and the shear forces, which are
especially critical at the inter-face due to the presence of thicker and less
stable liquid films. As a result, premature flooding at the interface is no
longer of concern.

CFD Analysis
CFD calculations done in advance of fabrication can
support the decision to go for a particular technology,
and can save on the time required for commissioning
and testing later. Sulzer uses CFD technology both
for the modeling of existing and the development of
new products.
