A wire mesh demister pad, also known as a mist eliminator or mist pad, is a device used to remove liquid droplets or mist from a gas stream. It is typically made of a wire mesh material, such as stainless steel, and is designed to capture and separate liquid particles from a gas or vapor flow.
The wire mesh demister pad works by allowing the gas or vapor to pass through the wire mesh while capturing and retaining the liquid droplets. The liquid droplets are then drained or collected for further processing, while the clean gas or vapor continues to flow.
The wire mesh demister pad is commonly used in various industrial applications, such as in chemical plants, oil refineries, power plants, and wastewater treatment facilities. It is often installed in equipment such as distillation columns, scrubbers, evaporators, and separators to ensure efficient and reliable operation by preventing liquid carryover or contamination.
