Distributors, Supports & Collectors

 

 

 

DELION designs and supplies engineered column internals that work as a system with trays and packings—so liquid and vapour are introduced, distributed and collected in a controlled way to secure stable hydraulics and column performance in both new builds and revamps. Custom-designed internals are built to meet process-specific requirements and to ensure optimum interaction with the packing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liquid Distribution

Uniform liquid distribution is critical for packed sections; therefore, distributor selection is driven by process objectives (capacity, efficiency, pressure drop), operating range, and fouling tendency. DELION offers multiple outflow system concepts to match the service and achieve uniform coverage. 

  • Outflow system options include: ground holes, drip tubes, splash plate, distributing pans 

  • Outlet configurations can be tailored (e.g., bottom orifices, side outlets, drip tubes, angled discharge points, baffle-assisted weirs, pan-type distributors, structured-packing-integrated outlets) to achieve uniform radial and cross-sectional coverage

Vapor Distribution

Packed columns are sensitive to both liquid and vapour maldistribution; therefore, vapour inlet design is critical and the geometry can be derived from CFD studies. A case example includes verification of vapour distribution for a large vacuum tower, with inlet device concepts such as radial feed inlet with side openings

 

 

Supports & Collectors

DELION provides the key support and collection hardware required for packed beds and internals integration. 

  • Support grid for structured packing 

  • Gas injection support plate for random packing 

  • Liquid collector chimney tray

 

 

Complementary Internals & Materials

Beyond distributors/supports/collectors, DELION also supplies a broader range of column internals and materials to match process and corrosion requirements. 

  • Conventional & high-capacity trays; all kinds of valves; special gas distributors; demisters; plate separators 

  • Materials include stainless steels as well as Copper, Titanium and plastics (service-dependent)
