Structured packings are characterized by high performance and a flexible application concept. It has a very efficient technique and a versatile range of applications. The packings offer a high separation efficiency, good wettability and a low pressure drop and can be exactly adapted to the respective fractionation problem. They are used in the fields of distillation, absorption and liquid-liquid extraction.

They offer high separation performances, high throughputs, extensive working ranges and low pressure drops, with main application fields are in distillation, desorption, absorption, direct heat exchanges and liquid / liquid extraction.
