OVERFLOW
WEIR LIQUID DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
Liquid distribution is an essential component of mass
transfer. One way to optimize mass transfer is to ensure even liquid
distribution and that is accomplished with overflow weir liquid
distribution systems. Overflow weirs (above picture is overhead
view) provide several advantages to traditional spray header and
nozzle systems. KCH overflow weirs provide superior liquid coverage
with 12 drip points per square foot, eliminate clogging nozzle problems,
significantly reduce carry over mist problems created by nozzles,
are capable of high to low turndown, and reduce energy requirements
compared to spray header systems by as much as 1/3. KCH's overflow
weir systems are designed and fabricated in house. Each unit is
designed for a specific flow rate and turndown capability. Units
can be constructed of PVC, CPVC, or PP. Each individual weir trough
is capable of being leveled in the field for exact flow control. |
