Liquid Collectors in Metal and Plastic

Liquid collectors are needed in a rectifying column for instance when, because of the feed of liquid, thorough mixing is required between the liquid dripping out of the bed from above and the feed. If a drop in mass transfer efficiency is to be avoided, a redistribution of the liquid phase is necessary after a certain bed height. Another application results when, owing to high gas flow velocities, drop entrainment is to be avoided in a gas inlet system by leading the liquid phase separately around the gas inlet system.
