Liquid Distributors

Liquid distributors spread liquid evenly across the packed bed area, supporting consistent wetting, improved vapour-liquid contact and efficient mass transfer. A well-designed distributor is essential for stable packed column performance, particularly where process efficiency and pressure drop need to be carefully controlled.

Our carbon fibre reinforced liquid distributors are lightweight, strong and designed around the application. Custom designs can be developed to suit the process duty, column diameter, liquid load and installation access requirements.

• Even liquid coverage across the packed bed area.
• Improved vapour-liquid contact and mass transfer performance.
• Application-specific design for process and installation needs.
• Lightweight construction designed for easier installation, including through manway access where suitable.

Liquid distributors are used in packed columns across the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, fine chemical, food, fertiliser and environmental sectors. Typical chemical applications include distillation, absorption, stripping, scrubbing, liquid-liquid extraction and acid or solvent processing, where even liquid distribution is essential for stable separation and mass transfer performance.

Whether for a new vessel or a column upgrade, our team can help specify a liquid distributor that supports reliable operation and efficient process performance.
