Increasing the Use Efficiency of the Absorption Capacity of Adsorbent in Vertical Absorbers

Resumo

A newly developed design of an absorber is described. In the new absorber, a horizontal annular perforated baffle with a directing conical bucket is situated on top of the upper layer of absorbent, which is covered by a layer of ceramic balls through a separating screen. Such a design assures a high degree of uniformity of the distribution of the input gas stream at the inlet to the absorption layer and produces an increase in the use efficiency of the absorption capacity of the adsorbent in vertical absorbers.
