Metal Wire Mesh Structured Columns Packing consist of proprietary designed metal wire mesh with corrugated sheets which are aligned and placed vertically. The wire structures slopes are reversed in other sheets stacked with alternating 90 degree orientation of each layer resulting in inclined flow passages and a relatively high surface area. This allow thin liquid films to be continuously spread across the tower as liquid flows through the packing. Capillary action and high surface areas result in maximum exposure to high mass transfer efficiency.
