The direct compaction principal makes mist go away.

Chevron Mist Eliminator

 

Verantis mist eliminators remove liquid entrainment from gas streams, thus providing high efficiency and low pressure drops in scrubbers, cooling towers, air washers, gas absorbers and ventilation systems.

The chevron type offers high performance with mist removal efficiencies often approaching 100%. They also provide excellent resistance against plugging in applications with high solids loading.

Mist eliminators work on the principle of direct impaction combined with
centrifugal force.

Verantis Chevron Mist Eliminators are available in vinylester fiberglass reinforced plastic, polypropylene, carbon and stainless steel.

 

Mist Eliminator Features:

 

• Special chevron design allows for high velocity operation up to 1,000 fpm.
• Low pressure drop.
• Existing towers using mesh pads can be retrofitted to minimize
  fouling and frequent pad replacement.
• Wide blade spacing reduces potential pluggage.
• Effective removal liquid droplets down to 25 microns.
• Available in vinylester FRP, polypropylene, carbon and stainless steel.

How it Works

In the illustration to the right, the first liquid collection trough (Point A) is critically located to remove the majority of entrained moisture droplets and minimize pressure drop. Particles that miss the first trough impact on the second collection trough (Point B). Here they remain to drain, as there is insufficient velocity and energy to re-entrain the droplets into the air stream. Any droplets small enough to bypass both the first and second troughs are collected at the third trough (Point C). This third trough increases the overall reliability and collection efficiency of the mist eliminator.
