Support for Existing Demister Requirements
A Demister Pad is used to reduce entrained liquid droplets from gas or vapour streams.
For replacement requirements, selection should consider more than the equipment diameter.
Operating conditions, gas velocity, physical properties, allowable pressure drop, required separation performance, pad construction and the existing installation arrangement can influence the final configuration.

Demister Pad Configurations
High-Efficiency Demister Pad
A configuration intended for applications where enhanced mist-removal performance is required. Operating velocity and pressure-drop requirements should be evaluated before configuration selection.
High-Capacity Demister Pad
A configuration that can be considered for applications involving higher gas velocities or increased process throughput. Actual suitability depends on the operating data.
Multi-Layer Demister Pad
Multiple mesh layers or configurations can be used where the process requirement calls for a more application-specific separation arrangement.
Sectional Demister Pad
For large equipment or restricted vessel access, Demister Pads can be manufactured in sections to support installation through available manways. The sectional arrangement should consider vessel dimensions and support details.
Customized Demister Pad
Configurations can be reviewed according to vessel diameter, pad thickness, mesh density, support arrangement, material of construction, operating conditions, section sizes and installation requirements.

Important Operating Information
Correct Demister Pad selection should consider parameters such as:
- Gas flow rate
- Gas density
- Liquid density
- Operating pressure
- Operating temperature
- Gas composition
- Liquid composition
- Equipment diameter
- Allowable pressure drop
- Required separation efficiency
- Droplet characteristics
- Fouling tendency
- Corrosion requirements
- Turndown conditions
Gas velocity is especially important because the operating velocity affects mist-separation performance and the potential for liquid re-entrainment.
