falling film absorber
The Falling Film Absorber are typical Heat Exchangers with weir tube arrangement at the top – which is always Vertically Mounted. A co – current flow of gas & absorbent liquid flows down through the tubes – each tube functioning as an individual heat exchanger. The Heat of absorption released is removed by the cooling water flowing in the shell side of the falling film unit. There by affecting gas absorption at lower temperatures and enabling a higher absorption rate. Objectives : To separate gas Mixtures as required by the process To purify a component of a gas Mixture To remove harmful gases from waste Gases To recover valuable components from waste gases
