Ceramic Saddles in RTO system for environmental protection
Ceramic Saddles are divided into two different types of products according to their properties, KPK-CIS-A is often used in the field of Chemical and Petrochemical industries, and KPK-CIS-B is mainly used in environmental areas such as RTO(Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers) equipment. But both of them are the most frequently used high-performance packing and exhibit advantages for most applications in comparison with other shapes. Their smooth surface imparts a high chemical resistance and provides Ceramic Intalox saddle rings (Ceramic Saddles) with a high level of stability. Due to their simple form, ceramic saddles can be produced at a relatively low cost.
Ceramic Random Column Packing is highly suitable for the conditions of higher temperature and lower temperature and can be much more resistant to all kinds of organic acid, inorganic acid and solutions except for the hydrofluoric acid than metal packing. Random Ceramic Packing or Column Ceramic packing is widely used in drying tower, absorbing tower and cooling tower in the fields of chemical, petrochemical etc industries.
