Purpose of a IMTP Metal Saddle Ring IMTP Metal Saddle Rings are primarily used in packed towers for the following purposes: Gas Absorption Removing specific components from gas streams (e.g., CO?, H?S, SO? removal in flue gas desulfurization). Distillation Separating liquid mixtures based on their boiling points (e.g., in the petrochemical industry). Stripping Removing volatile components from liquids (e.g., stripping ammonia from wastewater). Heat Transfer Enhancing heat exchange efficiency in cooling towers or heat exchangers. Chemical Reactions Improving contact between reactants in catalytic or reactive distillation processes. Wastewater Treatment Removing pollutants such as VOCs (volatile organic compounds) or ammonia from water.
