The carry-over of liquid particulate matter by gas or vapour is generally termed as ‘entrainment’, which is commonly encountered in gas-liquid separations. The Demister Pad is an entrainment eliminator manufactured by HAST. It is specially designed and fabricated from knitted wire of metallic or synthetic materials, to suit specific process configuration in existing or new equipment. When properly installed, the Demister Pad achieves 99.9% + separation efficiency with minimal pressure drop. Applications • In air pollution control, to eliminate toxic mist from off-gases, E.g. sulphuric acid plants. • To reduce solvent losses in absorbers, scrubbers and distillation equipment. E.g. amine treating systems. • To minimize product losses in kettles, reboilers, vacuum pans, crystallizers and evaporators. E.g. sugar crystallization. • To eliminate entrainment in knock out drums and receivers. • To eliminate entrainment that might damage compressors. • To supplement equipment like carbon absorbers and electrostatic precipitators. • In refinery towers to prevent carbon and metal entrainment to downstream catalytic cracker and reformer units. • In liquid-liquid systems such as coalescers. • Sealing - gaskets made of knitted mesh having different degree of re-silences. E.g. in cable industry, radiation, shielding, automobile and computer industry.
