Clark Solutions Eliminadores de Névoas Mist Eliminators Recheio Aleatório Randomico Tower Packing

On November 2016, Clark Solutions attended as an invited member FRI’s, Fractionation Research Inc. (www.fri.org), Design Practices Committee (DPC) meeting. The summit was held at the ExxonMobil’s Spring, Texas magnificent campus,.

FRI is a non-profit research consortium established in the 1950’s. With nearly 100 associated companies, among which figure the world’s largest petroleum, chemical and engineering companies.

FRI goals are to develop state-of-art, semi-industrial scale, mass transfer related research, compiling large-scale data in order to support the design and development distillation technologies. Clark Solutions and Petrobras are currently the only Brazilian member companies.

At the DPC meeting some of the world’s most prominent distillation experts discuss and establish a set of standards and guidelines on distillation best practices.

New experiences, successes and failures, new trends are discussed in depth and incorporated into good design  practive recommendations for the industry. One of DPC’s purpose is to elaborate a comprehensive Design Practices Handbook embracing most of the difficulties and considerations to support engineers from design to operation at the modern industry.

In March 2017, Clark Solutions will participate at the Kister Distillation Symposium, an annual event organized by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) – https://www.aiche.org/conferences/aiche-spring-meeting-and-global-congress-on-process-safety/2017 – and coordinated by Dr. Henry Kister, author from several distillation publications and one of Perry Chemical  Engineers Handbook contributors.

Clark Solutions will present a paper chapter about the design and application of mist elimination technology, with special focus to distillation columns.
