Random column packing refers to the practice of packing a distillation column with randomly fitting filtration material in order to optimize surface area over which reactants can interact while minimizing the complexity of construction of such columns. Random packing is one of the 3 primary devices used in mass and heat transfer applications. (The other 2 devices are structured packing and trays.) Like the other 2 devices, the primary purpose of random packing is to create surface area for vapor/liquid contact so that Mother Nature (and Father Thermodynamics) can produce chemical separation. Chemical separation includes distillation, absorption and stripping. |
