Structured Packing Replacement & Revamp Support fabrications in India

Support for existing columns, replacement requirements and new local projects in Pune and Maharashtra.

If your requirement involves replacing existing Structured Packing Fabrications in India or evaluating packing for a column revamp, share your available operating data and equipment information with S-Cube.

When Structured Packing Support May Be Required

Existing process columns may require packing review when operating conditions, plant requirements or existing internals change.

Typical enquiries can involve:

  • Existing packing replacement
  • Column revamping
  • High pressure drop
  • Low throughput
  • Poor separation performance
  • Product purity limitations
  • Flooding concerns
  • Capacity bottlenecks
  • New process requirements
  • Changes in operating conditions

A structured packing recommendation should consider the process and hydraulic requirements of the column rather than column diameter alone.

  • Liquid viscosity
  • Surface tension

Process Requirement

  • Required separation duty
  • Allowable pressure drop
  • Operating range
  • Fouling tendency
  • Corrosion conditions
  • Material requirements

You do not need to have every parameter available before contacting us. Share the information currently available and the engineering team can identify additional data required for evaluation.

Structured Packing Configurations

01

Metallic Structured Packing

Corrugated metal-sheet packing used for a range of distillation, absorption and stripping requirements. Selection can be reviewed against operating conditions, pressure-drop limitations, process duty and material requirements.

02

Wire Mesh Structured Packing

Wire Mesh Structured Packing can be considered where very low pressure drop and high separation efficiency are important to the process. Operating conditions and application requirements should be reviewed before configuration selection.

03

Perforated Structured Packing

Corrugated sheet packing incorporating perforations to support vapour-liquid interaction and wetting characteristics. The appropriate configuration depends on the process and hydraulic requirements of the column.

04

Customized Structured Packing

For replacement and revamp projects, packing can be reviewed according to column dimensions, existing equipment configuration, process conditions, operating capacity, material requirement and project specifications.

Structured Packing for Existing Column Revamps

A column revamp should not begin by selecting a packing only from a catalogue.

If an existing column is experiencing pressure-drop limitations, throughput restrictions, poor separation or operating constraints, the available process information should first be reviewed.

Depending on the project scope, support can include:

  • Process information review
  • Hydraulic evaluation
  • Packing selection
  • Configuration review
  • Manufacturing input
  • Installation guidance

Applications

  • Distillation columns
  • Vacuum distillation
  • Absorption columns
  • Stripping columns
  • Solvent recovery systems
  • Rectification and fractionation
  • Chemical purification
  • Gas treatment
  • Dehydration processes
  • Pharmaceutical solvent separation
  • Petrochemical processing
  • Specialty chemical applications

Replacement Requirement?

If you need to replace existing Structured Packing, send:

  • Existing drawing
  • Column diameter
  • Packing details, if available
  • Operating pressure
  • Operating temperature
  • Vapour flow rate
  • Liquid flow rate
  • Material requirement
  • Reason for replacement or revamp
