The wedge wire radial flow reactor center pipe, the inner screen, is a crucial component in reactors, designed to ensure uniform flow distribution around the catalyst bed and balances the pressure drop inside the reactor. Key Features:
▪ Enhanced Flow Distribution
▪ Durable and Corrosion-Resistant
▪ Customizable Designs
The wedge wire radial flow reactor center pipe, the inner screen, is a crucial component in reactors, designed to ensure even distribution of fluids (liquids or gases) across the reactor bed.
The radial flow reactor center pipe, formed from V-shaped wedge wire, provides superior filtration and support while allowing for radial flow. The center pipe ensures uniform flow distribution around the catalyst bed and balances the pressure drop inside the reactor. This minimizes the risk of uneven catalyst performance and system inefficiency.
The wedge wire inner screen is installed at the center of the radial flow reactor, with its bottom connected to the outlet of the reactor. During operation, the raw materials enter through the inlet at the top of the reactor, where a series of reactions take place under the influence of the catalyst. The gas is collected in the center pipe and then transported to the next stage of the reaction process.
The wedge wire center pipe is widely used in petrochemical and refining industries. It is suitable for catalytic reforming, styrene, synthetic ammonia, propane dehydrogenation, and other process units.
▪ Enhanced Flow Distribution
Wedge wire design, continuous slot structure, large opening area, not easy to clog, enhanced and uniform flow distribution.
▪ Durable and Corrosion-Resistant
Our reactor center pipe is made of high-quality stainless steel with highly resistant to corrosion and wear. It can handle the stresses of high-pressure and high-temperature environments typically found in industrial reactors.
▪ Customizable Designs
The radial flow reactor center pipes can be custom-designed to meet the specific requirements of your reactor system. Whether you need larger diameters, customized mesh configurations, or specific flow characteristics, manufacturers can tailor the design to fit your needs.
