Structured Packings
Brentwood offers an extensive line of structured packings, designed to fit any mass transfer application. Selecting a structured packing for an application involves balancing mass transfer performance, pressure drop, and fouling resistance. Brentwood structured packing is available in several different materials, including PVC, polypropylene, PVDF, and metal, allowing for the selection of the most cost-effective material for the application, based on appropriate chemical and temperature resistance.

| Product | Structure | Specific Surface Area | Hydraulic Capacity / Specific Pressure Drop | Mass Transfer Performance | Resistance To Scaling And Fouling | Specific Pressure Drop / Number Of Transfer Units | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MASSdek 80 Grid | Typical Applications | 80 m²/m³ | +++ | + | +++ | +++ | For high fouling absorber and stripper applications where there is a high particulate loading in the gas stream or poor air quality. |
| MASSdek 125 HTC | Cross-Fluted | 125 m²/m³ | +++ | + | +++ | +++ | A high capacity, cross-fluted structured packing meant for moderately fouling scrubber and stripper applications where fouling is not severe enough to require a grid packing. |
| MASSdek 150 HTC | Cross-Fluted | 150 m²/m³ | +++ | ++ | ++ | +++ | Excellent all-around structured packing for clean and moderately clean applications. A high capacity structured packing that is well-suited for absorption and stripper applications. |
| MASSdek 250 HTC | Cross-Fluted | 240 m²/m³ | ++ | ++(+) | + | ++ | Designed to be a high capacity structured packing with a high specific area. It performs well in clean applications where high removal is required but a lower pressure drop is desired. |
| MASSdek 250 HTE | Cross-Fluted | 240 m²/m³ | + | +++ | + | ++ | A high capacity structured packing made for clean applications where the highest removals are required. |
