Ceramic Structured Packing for Distillation Columns
Ambani Metals is a leading manufacturer and supplier of Ceramic Structured Packing in India, providing high-performance solutions for distillation, absorption, and purification processes across chemical, petrochemical, and metallurgical industries.
What is Ceramic Structured Packing?
Ceramic Structured Packing consists of precision-engineered corrugated sheets arranged in a geometric pattern to form cylindrical units. These structured units create a large surface area and uniform fluid distribution, resulting in significantly higher separation efficiency compared to random or loose packing.
With its unique ceramic structure, this packing:
- Ensures low pressure drop for energy-efficient operations
- Handles high liquid flow rates with maximum efficiency
- Offers flexible operation for varying process conditions
- Minimizes liquid stagnation, reducing the risk of overheating, polymerization, and coking
Advantages of Ceramic Structured Packing
- High separation efficiency – several times higher than loose packing
- Large specific surface area – enhances mass transfer
- Excellent chemical stability – resistant to acids, alkalis, and corrosive gases
- High temperature and pressure resistance – outperforms metal packing
- Good hydrophilic properties – promotes uniform liquid flow
- Durable and long-lasting – reduces maintenance and replacement costs
