DEMISTER™ Mist Eliminators
When the vessel size is not set by the mist eliminator, such as,
is normally the case for distillation towers, steam drums, or
evaporators, the practical starting point is often the knitted
wire mesh pad type. DEMISTER knitted mesh mist eliminators
provide high separation efficiency at the lowest installed cost.
