Random Packing Distillation Column or distillation column packing materials are used in distillation towers to provide a high surface area for steam or liquid condensation without restricting air flow. Tower packing is a mass of inert, solid shapes. Within a cylindrical column, it provides a greater surface area for the gas and liquid in a web scrubber to make contact.

Random Packing Distillation Column is also used in water treatment, absorption, desorption, rectification, extraction, desalting, drying, mixing, fish farming, biological filtering, and the treatment of greenhouse gases.
Features of Random Packing Distillation Column
Tower packing media provide a high surface area with a low bulk density. A high surface area material is useful for coalescing steam and water in high humidity applications, while a low bulk density material allows a minimally-obstructed flow of the moisture-laden (and, possibly, particulate-laden) gas stream. Thus, hot exhaust gases, steam from gas scrubbers, incinerators, furnaces, pollution control devices or similar equipment rise in the channel through vertical columns. Inside the tower, the tower filler provides a surface for trapping moisture and particulate matter that, when the hot gas rises to the outlet, drops to the collection point at the bottom of the tower.
Depending on the application, distillation column packing may be random or structured. Distillation Random packings are a relatively inexpensive way to increase a distillation tower’s efficiency and capacity. Features include high distillation, absorption, and stripping efficiency; high strength to weight ratio; and a high specific heat transfer coefficient. Some products are comparable to pall rings in terms of mechanical strength and efficiency. Tower packing includes structured and gauze packings as well as high-performance trays and custom-designed internals.
