Random Packing

Packed beds created by dumping bulk random packing provide the surface area and voidage necessary for thin film mass transfer of two phase processes. It is vital that high quality packing elements with consistent shape and size are used to achieve optimum performance. Furthermore, proper consideration of design, specification and installation of the random packing and associated column internals is required. Our engineering staff can provide these consultancy services to ensure optimal performance for a range of services for packed columns including:

• New column design
• Troubleshooting
• Brownfield revamps
• Detailed option studies

Packings are available in a wide variety of materials depending on process requirements. These materials comprise of: 

• Plastics:
  • Polypropylene
  • Polyethylene
  • Fluoropolymers (PFA, PVDF)
• Metallics:
  • Stainless Steels
  • Speciality alloys
• Ceramics

GLP specialises in retrofit applications and keep a range of packings in stock at our warehouse facilities in Melbourne for emergency requirements.
