Maximum Operating Temperatures for Plastic Jaeger Tri-Packs Jaeger Tri-Packs are available in a variety of injection-molded plastics for different applications. The maximum operating temperatures for these different resins vary from material to material and are also affected by specific process variables. The data presented below correspond to maximum continuous operating temperatures at atmospheric pressure and systems that are essentially air and water. The presence of solvents, acids, free radicals, and oxidants needs to be considered. Furthermore, these temperatures correspond to the maximum recommended bed depth for each packing size and material. These maximum bed depths are different depending on the application. Consult with Jaeger in respect to the maximum bed depth for your particular application.

Question:
Answer:
Which design is less expensive? If you chose column B, then you might be in for a surprise. The price you pay for pollution abatement is composed of two parts. First, theres the direct capital cost for the scrubber or stripper. This includes the up-front money you are charged for the column, the packing and the internals. But theres also an ongoing energy expense that you must pay for gas compression and for liquid pumping. The capital cost is usually carefully monitored and controlled because it is oftentimes a large lump sum payment charged before abatement even begins. By contrast, energy is paid for on an ongoing basis. It is a cost not often considered in the evaluation of designs submitted by different vendors because it is presumed that this cost should be about the same for all designs. It then follows that the cost for abatement is minimized by minimizing the capital expense. But this reasoning can be seriously flawed. Energy costs are extremely sensitive to design choices like column diameter, packed depth, gas loading per square foot of column cross sec-tion, and materials of construction. The only proper way to choose a design is to balance capital expenses against operating expenses. The annual abatement cost is the sum of the depreciated capital cost and the annual energy cost. The proper choices of column diameter, packed depth, and gas loading per unit cross section are those that minimize this annual abatement cost. When the capital depreciation time is relatively long, the column diameter increases in order to bring the pressure drop down and thus lower energy costs. Conversely, when capital is depreciated more quickly, the column size shrinks (at the expense of higher pressure drop) in order to lower the up front expense. In short, then, a smaller column can be more expensive to operate than a larger one when all cost factors are taken into account Jaeger can work closely with your organization to develop cost models for your project and we can optimize a design based on these models to meet your financial objectives.

*HTU values for 3.5 Lanpac calculated from Lanpac HTU correlation reported in Lantec Technical Bulletin TL-901. 2 Jaeger Tri-Packs performance data taken from U.S. Department of Commerce document AD-A158 811 June 1985
When Manatee County, Florida required H2S stripping towers for water treatment in 1992, they were concerned about long-term energy cost. The OEM Manufacturer retained by the county conducted tests on different packings to assure that their client received the most efficient packing and system. The partial results shown in the two graphs at the left show why they picked 31/2 Jaeger Tri-Packs over 31/2 Lanpac as the most efficient and affordable packing available. When these two products - of comparable size - are used for identical purposes with identical conditions, the 31/2 Jaeger Tri-Packs overwhelmingly outperform the 31/2 Lanpac. Stripping efficiencies for 31/2 Jaeger TriPacks averaged 36.5% better than those for 31/2 Lanpac. These results are illustrated by the graph at the top left. The same trend is evident in the pressure drop, as illustrated by the graph on the lower left. The data shows the advantage in energy savings that 31/2 Jaeger Tri-Packs offers over the 31/2 Lanpac. 31/2 Jaeger Tri-Packs were recommended and installed because they outperformed 31/2 Lanpac in both mass transfer efficiency and pressure drop. The 31/2 Jaeger Tri-Packs are still in service and will con-tinue to provide the energy savings and value originally desired by Manatee County Give us a call. Jaeger can provide the products and services to get you the most out of your packing or mass transfer device.

Liquid Loading 2-10 gpm/ft2 These loadings are based on the cross-sectional area of the scrubber as seen by the liquid. In counter-current scrubbers, this area corresponds to the cross-section of the tower. In cross-flow scrubbers, it corresponds to the cross-section on a vertical plane of the packed bed. Packing Size pH For random packings, optimum size scrubber diameter/packing size ratio is 12:1. pH needs to be specified and controlled for any absorption involving contaminants which can dissociate in aqueous solution. Contact Jaeger for your specific application. Packed bed pressure drop in new scrubbers should be between 0.02 and 0.2 water/ft. of packed bed depth for optimum design.
