Sulzer Mellachevron™ Mist Eliminators

Sulzer Mellachevron™ mist eliminators are high-capacity separators constructed as banks of parallel, chevron profiles that cause the gas to change direction several times. The momentum forces entrained liquid droplets to impinge on the vane surfaces where they form a liquid film and drain.

Shell Swirltube™ and Shell Swirltube Light™ Mist Eliminator Deck

Shell Swirltube™ deck is a multicyclone scrubbing device and is ideally complemented with a Shell Schoepentoeter and a Sulzer KnitMesh™ for preconditioning. The Shell Swirltube Light™ is an alternative for high-capacity separation, based on the de-entrainment device from the Shell ConSep technology.
